If you particularly like Wal-Mart, you can always use their scanner. They have a kodak center where you scan there and then make duplicates. It's not great, but should give you better resolution, in turn getting rid of the "blockiness." But yes, try Kinko's or Wolf Camera. If you live in a rural area, it may be quite a drive to the nearest store. Good luck!<br><b>References : </b><br> Just like everyone said, scan them at a higher resolution. 300 dpi.

Do not rely on them. Kinko's would be better (knock on wood). Your best bet would be to look up a photo printing place in town that does digital photos. There is a lot more to scanning than high resolution. They can do all sorts of adjustments with photo editing software that will give you the best results at a good price (good price - because it should be easy and quick for them). If you do it yourself, it would be better to scan at a resolution higher than 300 - if you aren't doing too many photos. Tiff is also better than Jpeg. * and make sure these photos aren't copyrighted. Technically, if you didn't take the pictures, you don't have the right to do this unless you have permission from the photographer. Kinko's will refuse to scan the images if they think they are copyrighted. I'm just giving you a heads up ... just incase.<br><b>References : </b><br> the people at walmart know nothing more on this subject than you do. Do not rely on them.

"Blocky" sounds like you have used too low a resloution. If you are running out of time, you may be faced with going to Staples Copy Center or Kinko's to get it done.<br><b>References : </b><br> I am not familiar with your scanner, but please be sure that you are scanning at 300 dpi or higher.
