    Cab I just add a word of caution over these 'free' offers.
    I'm not saying this might apply here but be careful with the detail and look at what you are agreeing to. I recently took up an an introductory offer for some 'free' printing, but you have to give your card details to pay for the postage which was not unreasonable. The job was done and I had no complaints about the printing.
    But in the small print I missed the fact that I was agreeing to join a discount club and pay £9.99 a month in order to get further 'free' offers. Needless to say when I checked my card statement and found what was happening I contacted them to stop it. It took a further series of phone calls an another payment before they eventually agreed to stopp taking the money before the end of the 12 month period that I had 'agreed' to.. The credit card company were no help either.

    Point taken on this Ralph - but since it came from Martyn's link I would presume his concern over "small print" cop-outs would make him check on each offer and identify those where the possibility of such rip-offs arise.

    For those interested in this offer I forgot to mention that if submitting images over the internnet, the submitted images need to be editedto the image size befo=rehand, sized at 300 dpi and sharpened. This is because the Jessops Program can identify whether input is from a memory card - in which case it automatically edits the images before processing - or from "other" sources in which case it simply accepts the image as presented.
    Aplogies for the memory lapse.
