So I've heard the news about Jessops closing, which is a real pity for so many reasons, the big one for me is the quality of their photo printing service. I have ordered a number of canvas prints from them, and was prepared to pay the relatively high cost after once ordering some from tesco that were shoddy to say the least...

Does anyone know if the photo printing part is being bought or is it all folding??

Can anyone recommend a good alternative, particularly for canvas prints? Be it website or shop?

Were the photoprints not done by Cewe anyway who also do WH Smith, Argos and Superdrug among others.
If you are/can become a Costco member they do a photo service using catchincolour who are good ime and generally do at least 25% discount on their normal prices.

If you have designed photo books, calendars or other photo print projects with the Jessops photo software in the past, you can download the Designer application from the award winning http://fotoinsight.co.uk/ photo service and open your old Jessops projects in there. The software is compatible, so your work won't be lost and can still get printed.

Jessops was working with CEWE Color Ltd for photo books and other photo print products. Just download the free software from http://cewe.photo-book-printing.co.uk/
