Thanks ... that looks very interesting! I wonder what the quality of the product is like? If anyone makes a book, let us know!

Cheers, PeterB. :)

I have used Snapfish previously as they had a special offer where you could print a book for free. The quality is very high and professional looking.

I've heard good things about blurb.

Another one is lulu.com (http://lulu.com)

Cheers,

A couple of months ago I found an Aussie site that was offering photo books, and they offered to send out a couple of sample pages to judge the print quality. When the samples arrived in the mail, I wasn't very impressed. No doubt good enough for a snapshot album but they weren't my idea of "coffee-table book" quality. I can't remember the name of the site now, unfortunately.

Anyway, I'm just waiting until I have enough good images to put a book together (which may be a *long* time at the rate I'm going) ... :rolleyes:

Cheers, PeterB.

I got one made through Snapfish. It's really nice, great keepsake.. but not sure if it's worth the $$ they charge. I guess to really make it worth while you need a nice thick book full of photos.. mine is quite thin.

I've used Pixart (http://www.pixart.com.my/index.htm) for printing gift photo books before. The customer service and pricing were great, but I wouldn't use them to print a portfolio.
