***edited to add***thanks everyone! I’ve always preferred matte finish, too…but for some reason when I was about to hit the "place order" button I choked and thought I’d better get some opinions first. I’ll let you know how everything turns out with QOOP, so far it’s been really easy! happy weekend! stay cool.***
I’m about to order some digital prints from a new flickr processor–QOOP…but before I send ALL these prints to the printer, I need your opinion:
glossy or matte??
what’s your preference?
thanks, folks!
A few months ago I ordered some big prints from shutterfly, I debated and finally got matte and LOVE them, they look very perfessional to me.
I always get matte finish on my photos, since the online services first got it (winkflash I think is where I used to get it done). When I have to get glossy (because I’ve taken a disposable camera to target or something) I always think they’re noticeably cheaper looking.
I always prefer matte!
Matte! Definately.
Matte! Definately.

I prefer matte I think they frame much better.We had a few gloss photos ruined as when we tried to re-frame them they had stuck to the glass.This is way before we had a digital camera and we have no negatives either 🙁
I love matte!
Matte- without question!!
matte.
Have a great weekend!
echoing here – but definitely MATTE. more professional and they don’t show fingerprints.
oh yes. matte.
matte*matte*matte*
cool…looks like qoop caught on to your post:) discount for you!
Well I think you’ve got a fairly good consensus here but I always go matte too….seeing the theme??!! They don’t show fingerprints as much.
Matte!
It really depends on the image. If you really want some serious help, email me links and I’ll tell you what I would do. I’ve had some training and photography was my college major, so it won’t be completely a personal opinion.
Personally, I like Matte, but some pictures just beg to be glossy.
late chiming in, but my vote would have been matte, too.
definitely matte
i would have voted matte, too.
but really, i wanted to say that i love your new (i think?) banner.
