I am looking for a US-based alternative to Shutterfly to order some 5 x7 prints, matte or pearl finish. Nothing fancy, just the prints.
I just spent several frustrating house with a Shutterfly publishing service plug-in for Lightroom, changing the configuration many times before I was finally able to upload six prints Even after I got the upload done, I still got some error messages! Once the prints were on the website, the website was very confusing and I couldn't order the prints I wanted. At some point, enough is enough and I am looking for an alternative.
I'm not interested in services such as Smugmug which seem focused on online portfolios. If there is no alternative, then I'll suck it up and take a memory stick to my local drugstore, where I'll probably get lower quality prints. Long term, when I want to do more printing, I will get a photo printer, but I'm not ready for that yet.
