Hi all,
I want to try local drugstores for printing my digital images using the printing machines these stores offer in their photo-corner..
The machines are of the type: put in your usb-stick/cd with the image files (yes, you can transfer from your smartphone too, but as i do not have such a tool, i will rely on the usb-stick) and do some selecting and resizing on a screen and let your pictures get printed and walk away with them (after paying, sure!!!).
I would like to at home prepare my photo files myself in a way they are ready for printing as they are on my stick.
It would be selecting a part of the digital photo/make the composition, correct colours and sharpness e.g., and sizing them to the 10x15 cm. format i would like to have the prints in.
As i never did this, is there a howto to do these steps with best result -on this forum or elsewere on the Net?
(i expect, most of you would use a professional service, but that is not for me
).
(the camera is a pentax k10d, files are in jpeg and some in raw too; i do have Gimp for manipulating (as i use Linux OS only)).
Thank you for reading and some suggestions.
