if you have a memory ccard from your digital camera with the picture on, take it to your local boots store, you can just slide ure memory card in, and print off the selected picture
it's a special kodak little machine thing, most boots have them now.
cost for that size probably about 2-5quid

so your running 6mp. 8x10 comes out very nice and A4 size does too when you print at 300dpi. you'll have to interpolate to get A3.
I've printed my A4 pics out on an epson photo 890 on epson premium photo paper. if you want it professionally printed there are quite a few places on line that do it. you'll just have to search.
or what you could do is send the file to ICY and he could print an A3 size off for a charge.
Pixaco do a 18x12 for 2.19 plus P+P, 8x10's cost around £1.20 each + P+P and a 30x20 costs £12 from Pixaco. sizes in inches.
I've used klick for some of my pics. best thing to do is play about in photoshop till you get what you want then save the file and upload to the online place

I've had some done online at www.photobox.co.uk. Very quick service, good quality. And you can store images there, and your friends can look at them in album form.

If you're worried about getting the photos developed because they're a bit rude, send them to me first.
I don't do developing, but I don't want to miss out on seeing flesh

Most places will be able to take them on a CD.
Don't go too crazy in Photoshop and certainly don't crop, or if you're going to taken an original as well.
JPG compression is lossy, so if you're opening, making changes, saving and closing your file will have less detail in that if you didn't recompress. If you open it again, make more changes and save it again you've lost yet more.
If you're printing 8x10 you'll see that.
