At the check out do you click....
DO NOT color correct this order, or do you not click DO NOT color correct this order.

I am ordering a test 8x10 because I want to see if the color of the print will be close to my monitor I just calibrated..

A few quick answers would be appreciated.

Thank you ..
Bruce

I think if they color correct it, you will not really know if it matches or not. You won't know what they did. I think to see if it matches, you should not color correct it. That is guess, but is what seems to make sense to me.

I normally check the do not color correct. But let me say that I have done it both ways. Before I calibrated my monitor and after. And I have never failed to get images that I loved from MPix. I tell all of my photographer friends that they do great work.

But if you have a calibrated monitor and are pleased with the image then I would check the box.

Thank you for the responses guys.
I just wanted to make sure because I am going to order this test print, and from there I need to do a multiple order for my cousins birthday party.

Why not do two? Then you can see what works best with your monitor.

They give the choice on the whole order.
They don't give you the option to just color correct 1 image.

Thanks for the help Pam.
