    What are your settings for exporting from Photoshop?

    Where do you get your postal boxes for prints?

    Hi everyone, I just wondered where you all purchase your postal boxes from? I'm looking for some that could fit mounted prints up to 8x12, and square mounts up to 10x10. I haven't sent prints via post before so any other advice would be great! Thanks in advance :)
