I want to know what other peoples experiences are with photo books. I have just places a order with blurb, and would like to know other peoples thoughts on there services. Such as print quality, colour reproduction, you know, most of the things that we will pick at.
Anyway cant really wait for the book to come, so i thought id see if i can gather some thoughts before hand.
Cheers Edd :)

I've had a couple of books from blurb and I think they're good value. Reproduction quality is fine in my view. In the most recent book I had, I felt some of the shots were a bit soft, but that's a lesson for next time - I should have sharpened them before importing. Colours were just as I expected them to be.

Digital Photo have a test this month on PhotoBooks and rate www.fotobook.co.uk (http://www.fotobook.co.uk) the best out of the bunch.

Photobox came in with 4* and half the price of the rest.

Has anyone got any photos of books they have had made up? I've been tempted to put one of these together for a set of ~35 images I have but most of the product images on the various websites don't seem to show them off too well.
