Just found this as I need to renew my driving license photo (for £35!!!!). Anyway this site is well rated and you can download high res passport photos of the correct proportions if you follow the directions!!

It's sort of bike related if your going on a biking holiday soon and have not checked when you passport runs out !!! 😉
Last time I got a passport I was told that prints from a home printer were not to be used, has this changed?
Had to renew all 4 of our passports over the last 3 years and have done all the pictures myself at home.
How long ago was that? Dunno but I have never had a problem - Although admitidly I have not done this in recent years?
It says in the recommendations:
"be printed professionally. Photographs printed at home are not likely to be of an acceptable quality."
I doesn't say you can't just it maybe rejected? So if you have a 300di photo printer then it should be fine?
I just renewed my driving license photo and I'm sure it was only 20 quid.
Thanks for the heads-up. Was about to lay mine out in photoshop but this was 10x easier. Printed instantly at boots for 38p. Would have been £5 to use the proper passport photo booth there.
no worries - I got to do mine - I presume it was easy @ boots nick?
Oh well I was told that by the Passport office...erm...a few years ago!
BTW potdog you were right £20 😳 Havn't a clue where I got £35 from 🙄

Very easy, stick the pic on a usb stick, pop it in the machine and print at 6x4. Took under a minute, £4.62 saved and I've still got another 6 pictures of my face 🙂
Last time I took some at home with a white sheet, cleaned up in PS and managed to fit about 9 on a 6 x 4. Printed within the hour at Jessops for £1.
