If you have used MPIX before can you tell me if they put their company logo or name on the back of each photo?

I'm looking for a good place online to get prints but I don't want the company's name on the back of each photo.

I dont want my clients to go to the web site of the company whose name is on the back of their prints and see that I paid .99 cents for a print that I just charged them $12.00 for.

Ive tried several places and they have all done this.

the back of the photo only has some kind of serial number (order #, seq #, etc), sometimes your file name also shows, but never MPIX or their logo.

the back also shows Kodak Professional ENDURA Paper.

the only place where MPIX shows is on the package. unfortunatley they don't yet have drop service; aside from that, MPIX gets my thumbs way up.

prints are cheap no matter where you get them. when you charge people for a print, they dont pay for the piece of paper, they pay for your technical expertise, time, and post processing. the print is just a small part of the actual charge.

that said, I have taken a liking to MPIX, good company and great prints. :)

I totally agree. However, Most people don't appreciate this fact. All they know is that when they (or their friend/nephew etc.) drop their film/mem card off at the local store THEY only pay a small charge for a (small) print.
