I tried color printing once with one of those tubular processors. The ones 
where you exposed the paper, put the paper in this plastic tube that had a 
light lock on one end, and you poured chemicals in and out.

The results were less than stellar. What little color film processing I needed 
to went Kodak. The color printing I left to a couple different labs I used, one 
that was really good in Milwaukee, but they’re gone now. Sucks, because you 
could send them just about anything with instructions on how you wanted it 
printed (burn in here, mask here, etc., etc.) and they would do it.
