Yeah, the Kodak Co is doing terrible except for the digital divisions. Ofoto is a great site too, as its soo easy to upload your files (pics). Then select the print size, even crop em. This is totally the wave of the future because its soo easy and the results are JUST LIKE REGULAR PHOTO for cheaper.
I use Photoshop Elements to crop, dodge and burn, edit, clean up, lighten, fill flash all my shots now and then IF I print them, send them to Ofoto. That way I get custom 8x10 prints that use to cost me $30 each for $3.
I submitted one of the shot Monique shot on a trip to a local photo contest. She won second prize! All the other entries were regular big buck custom prints. No one could believe that it was a digital shot!

Craig, if you are a 35mm guy, get a Nikon D100. It's truly incredible. I don't have one bad thing to say about mine.
6 megapixel, uses Nikon AI lenses (lot's of choices).

This is a little OT, but I got a Canon i950 photo printer for my wife, and it is shockingly good. We used to use Shutterfly and Ofoto, but you can't beat the convenience of being able to print what/when/how many you want right at the desk here.

The paper & ink tanks are a bit spendy though...I haven't done an analysis compared to the online services.

Next time a big pile of money falls on my head, I want to get 2 new digicams -- one of the tiny "pocket" ones like the Minolta, and a bitchen semi-pro SLR type (Nikon or Canon).

check out digital camera resource page [http://www.dcresource.com]
There are reviews of just about every digi camera and more information
and tests than you need.

OK, I tried 3 times to add a link but couldn't do it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Just cut and paste

I've been using a Canon S300 for a while now and I love it. It takes great pictures.

FWIW...better to reduce the dimensions (height/width) before twiddling the JPEG compression! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) That way your pics will be sharper but won't require horizontal scrolling. 640x480 or 800x600 are about tops for "friendly" board posting. (I usually run 1600x1200 on my main systems but my 2lb notebook can only do 1024x768. A lot of olpharts run 800x600 on their desktops).

Been using a nikon coolpix for almost 2 years. (990, 3.34M) It's been stellar.

In particular, because of the kinds of pics I take, the swivel head has been incredibly useful. (archtectural pics and car detail pics mostly) You can separate what you see on the display, from the angle that the camera is on. Very handy. Has a macro mode, and the low light algorithms seem to work pretty well.

Other issues when I was shopping -- compact flash was desired back then, (as opposed to a proprietary format) and I opted for a standard battery system (takes 4 std batteries -- you can get them anywhere, including any airport -- I was travelling a lot)

hth.
