I'm really bad about taking loads of photos, spending time in post-processing, and then never printing them. After losing some of my pix to a hard drive crash recently, I vowed that I would not do that again. I recently checked out Blurb Books after hearing about them on The Digital Story -- Derrick Story's podcast. I downloaded the free software and set out to work. The design process was very quick, easy and fun.
I ordered late at night on October 30 and my book shipped today (November 4). Want to see a preview? Click here:http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/1686666?ce=blurb_ew&utm_source=widget
To download the software and build a book of your own, go to www.blurb.com.
Can't wait to see the finished product! I'll let you know how it turned out.

So how is the quality of the book. There's a lot of book printing services now, but it's nice to hold the product in your hands before you buy.
ReplyDeleteI am pleased, but not blown away, by the quality. The photos look good, but some seem a little dark. Like you, I like to know what quality to expect before I buy.
ReplyDeleteI have had exceptionally good service on prints and greeting cards from Meridian Professional Imaging (Meridian Pro). Though the Blurb book is easier to make I might try one of Meridian's books. Thought I've only ordered calendars through iPhoto, they have been excellent quality.
Anyone else have an opinion or experience to share? Please feel free to weigh in.
