It has been a year since I have had film developed. Ever since I bought my printer last year that is how I get my pictures. I bought a digital camera soon after that printer purchase and it is so convenient to just print what I want, how many I want, etc. I can also put the pics on a DVD as a back-up.

I still have a regular film camera, so yeah I get mine developed. Call me old fashioned, lol. ;)

ditto. i will buy a digital camera only when they stop making 35mm cameras or film.

My printer is not the best in the market so most of the time I get my 8x10's from the store...everything else is done at home.

I have a Lexmark photo printer so I print most of my own photos. If I wanted to make a large amount of reprints I would have prints made at a drugstore.

I have both type of cameras so I print some on the printer but have the majority developed at Walgreens.

I'm another who has the old fashioned 35mm , i know how to devellop pics myself, but, the cost of the equipment and chemicals, not to mention the anoyance of getting a darkroom ready means I just bring the films to Walmart and let them take care of it :lol:

I like the results I get with film anyway, my avatar being a prime example of what i can do (with a little luck!)

i get mine developed by winkflash. i used to print them myself, but it is cheaper to get them done by them. plus, i get them in like 2 days. when i printed my own, it seemed like i was printing them for 2 days! i have better things to do than watch the printer do it's thing.

Walmart prints them in an hour, and its no more $$$ than the places that make you wait a week!
