if its convenience you are after, you could use dried chilli flakes, which i think are really good, other than that, you could use a decent chilli sauce (Oil and Vinager do a few good ones) or try lazy chilli from the supermarket, or sambal oelek, which is a paste made from chillis pounded with a bit of salt, znd is available in jars from larger supermarkets and gourmet shops, or you could try using chilli oil.
of course, theres always good old tabasco Smile
try chillipepperpete.com for all sorts of unusual dried and fresh chillis, and chilli related products (sauces, pickles, chocolates etc)

if you still wanted to use chillis you could go for fresh or ready ground if you do not want to use chillis substitute for paprika
