1. What happened to Bay Photo? I'm not seeing the choice anymore.

2. I'm trying to get some enlargements to EZPrints and I want to know what is the optimal file resolution (in PPI) for their printers.

3. Is there a separate icc profile for EZPrints' matte, glossy and lustre papers?

    you need to choose Bay Photo in your pro pricing. Tools>set prices.

    Do not change your files - just upload the original full size photos, the lab will do the rest.

    You can get the lab profiles here http://www.smugmug.com/help/display-color don't assign any profile, just leave it in sRGB but you can use the profiles to soft proof if you wish thumb.gif

    The reason I might want to alter the resolution is that I'm making 16x20 files in lightroom to create margins for matting, and I must specify a resolution when using Print to JPEG.

    Leave it at 300dpi.
