I've made no secret of having a major crush on Instagram. Of all the photo apps I have installed on my phone, this one feels the most comfortable to me. The filters are really easy to apply, and I've settled on some definite favorites. I also like having the tilt-shift option to play around with.
I recently downloaded the Postalpix and placed my first order of Instagram photos. I ordered 60 pictures (which is their max order size) and the process was really simple. The photos arrived about 5 days later, packaged inside a typical photo processing envelope and then tucked in a mailing envelope. The images were great -- I ordered mine as 4x4 squares. The paper felt a little thinner than the typical glossy photo paper that I use when I'm printing here at home, but that might be normal for photo-processing labs; I haven't had my pictures printed at a store or lab in years.
I keep my photos displayed in this cute little fruit basket that I picked up at Anthropologie after seeing it on Elsie Larsen's blog. The 4x4 photos fit nicely inside the basket, and lots of people like to pick them up and flip through them. Every so often, I'll switch them out so a different photo is on top of the stack.
I'd like to order some of my most favorite prints in the larger sizes, just to see how well they print. I know that the photo quality on my iPhone 4S is much higher than my 4 was, so I'm interested in seeing just how large a print I can make and still retain the quality of the image.
Audrey, it's Randall here. I'm not on facebook (for now) so I came here to ask you this. I am horrible about remembering birthdays of friends/family and I need something to help. While in Memphis, I was at my wife's aunts house and she had this crafty thing that hangs on the wall, which listed birthdays. I was wondering if you make any crafts like that and if so, I would want to buys some from you.
Hope to hear from you soon and really hope all is well with you and the family.
