v.
I do want to make it clear that I am in no way employed, compensated, affiliated, or such, with, by or for either Winkflash or Mpix.I put in another order to Mpix with the color correcting on this time, the results? Less than spectacular, but not ALL bad. For the details, make the jump (more…)

v. Alright, so the results are finally in. After a few days of research on multiple review forums hosted by both general consumer and photo specific sites, I was stuck between two candidates. Mpix.com and Winkflash. Both got really decent reviews. I even found one review where the user did in fact compare the two as I have. Yet, when he did so, he was making prints at 11X14+ and using some of their premium paper. He also had a slightly different purpose. Seeing as my printing purposes called for economy I wanted to compare each site on their barebones options. In his tests, he gives Winkflash as the winner, but only by a hair. My results are similar but not as black and white (sorry, I had to). I’m a bit more subjective on image quality (but it’s kind of hard not to be) but I also objectively examine speed of delivery, packaging, price and functionality of web ordering. For more details keep reading. Or you can skip to the bare results here. (more…)
