I suspect that the problem is that they think you are trying to have them
make prints of
images for which you do not hold the copyright. For example, at my local
(chain) film processing
store, they have one of those Kodak Scanner/Printer machines - they check
each photo you want
to copy to ensure its not a copyrighted work.

I think you just need to persuade them that they are *your* photos and *you*
took them.

Subject: [APML] Walmart Woes...


I've ran into another issue with Walmart....

I took some modified Astro Photo scans I did and some digital shots of a
friends wedding to Walmart to have them printed on the infamous Fuji
Frontier.  When I  came back to pick them up I received 4 of the 16 shots.
Reason on the package...."Can't print Professional Prints".

Now it's nice to be considered a Professional (I'm far from it) but it
doesn't help me get my scans or digital photos printed.  What do they want
me to do?  Take bad shots??

Now what?  I'm 2 hours from another Fuji Frontier!!  Does anyone know where
I can send a CDr to and have prints made?  Preferability one that won't
judge my prints to "Professional" to print!!

Thanks in advance!!

Frustrated in Arkansas,
Tim
