    Don't know of any down there but I think there's one in Connolly Station - that's not too far away.

    take a picture on your phone, upload it and it will size it down to fit six on a standard photo, bluetooth it to any machine in tesco etc and print for 50c

    does it have to be a booth? The nearest one I can think of is in the Merrion Shopping centre, which is but a 3 busride away. Otherwise, Donnybrook pharmacy does them.
    If you have an anyway decent camera and lights you can do them yourself and order them off photobox - you get 8 passport photos on one sheet for 1.50...I got one each for the kids the other day

    I am well aware of the rules and have done pictures for three diferent poeple this way without problem.

    If you want to give six euro for one print feel free. Doesnt take an expert to take a decent pic with digital camera against a white wall.

    You would be suprised. I had a disaster of a time getting mine done. You are best going into a camera shop I think. I went to one on Talbot Street beside Irish Life and they did a fine job.

    Could you not just head into Stephen's Green SC? Alternatively, see if a chemist in Sandymount has the facility (lots of chemists do).

    Actually just thought of that chemist on Dame Street that does them - it's opposite Charlie's Chinese Restaurant.

    Well mine turned out ok, were accepted all three times. Went into the camera shop in Liffey street and he was looking for €8 for six pictures. Joke :mad:
