My inlaws are in the USA (Ohio) for a year or so, I want to send them some pictures of the grandkids etc so figured that should be easy in the world of internet as I should just be able to upload them to an American site and get them delivered to their address. I figure the probable glitches I would have are using a UK bank card, and some companies don’t like delivery addresses different to the cards address (especially with foreign cards). This may or may not be an issue, a site that takes paypal may be handy. Has anybody had photos printed in the USA (paying from the UK with a UK card) what sites do you recommend? (I don’t need anything super dooper, just the USA equivalent of photobox/ snapfish etc). I see with photobox I can get them sent there via airmail for more money, its not a bad price but it seems silly to get them printed here and shipped round the world when I can just get them printed in the states, and we will probably do it more regularly so it will soon add up.
 
If they use COSTCO - the buying club - you can upload your files - and then specify which branch worldwide to collect them from.

There is a service from Lifepics - where you can find a lab local to your family and they can collect too...
 
You could try using the Kodak Gallery. Use the .Com version which will give you the US site.

You get 40 prints free when you join. You could upload your images and get the prints sent to you inlaws in Ohio
 
or use White house custom colour, who are a really well regarded and professional lab :)
 
Thanks, white house looks a bit too professional for my needs. Kodak should be great, I have opened an account but theres a couple of photos I need still to take then I will get them all uploaded and fingers crossed get them ordered. Thanks.
 
Or upload to a photo hosting site that allows full res download (I use Smugmug) and then they can download and then print out locally..................
