www.minilabhelp.com is run on a not-for-profit basis, as a service to the mini-lab community, by founder Neil Taylor. Neil is a former mini-lab owner who traded as BT Photographic. He was a good ambassador for the Noritsu corporation in that time, and sat on the PMA Photo Marketing Association's Minilab Advisory Panel. Since he started www.minilabhelp.com the site has grown into the main independent on-line forum for mini-lab folk. Neil will have a lot to share with photographers at the SUMMER SHOW about the practicality of doing enlargements and packages on inkjet solutions such as Fujifilm's GreenBox.
