Just got back 2 rolls of film online from York Photo in record time - 8 days from mailing! York now provides unlimited hosting - low resolution (512x 384) images are hosted on their servers, and you can download higher resolution (1500×1000) photos from their site or order cheap prints.
Not bad for $2.10/roll plus $1.00 for prints online.
Got digital? You can upload your own images to them, too.

A few collectives gave artists in Seoul, L.A. and Philly Lomo cameras and set them loose.

Opening reception Fri., April 4, 6-9 p.m., runs through May 30, 222 Gallery, 222 Vine St., 215-873-0750, 222gallery.com.
