When I try to load the profiles into my PS image, I don't see which profile is from Mpix. I see one with MPIX in the title, so I'm guessing that one is the metallic paper.
Couldn't you rename those profiles to something more intelligible/easy to remember instead of the default profile names? (probably a newbie question, I apologize).
Well, the files have nice names when you download them...(e-surface and metallic) but when the appear in photoshop, they are different. It doesn't matter if you rename them or not. There must be text imbedded in the file that photoshop reads.
So how exactly should these profiles be used? Is that the proof profiling? I haven't dont anything except send them off to my ICC managed printer. I would like to send some pics to MPix for larger and nicer prints.

Don't ask me where they came up with these names!
A quick search reveals that these are Kodak papers they're using, namely Kodak Supra Endura and Kodak RP30 papers - then the date the profile was made.
I would have hoped they'd keep profiles updated, but if the output is as good as everyone says, who cares?
