Jim Garvie OP Addict Joined: Mar 2005 Florida	Just wondering if any other forum member has tried out the Blurb book publishing approach or any others i.e. Pikto, MPIX, WHCC, etc. I've been gathering the stuff I want to put into a book but have not as yet actually put one together. I have a wedding album that I'm doing for a client that I also want to put into book form for the mothers of the bride/groom and the wedding party. I'm curious about people's experiences in self-publishing. Jim Jim Garvie www.jagphoto.biz

Pages were printed on great quality paper, images came out clean and crisp, and the software that they gave was easy to follow. Layouts were good but you could do your own layout in CS2 and place it on any page. Very happy with it and will use it probably about once a year for new projects. Shawnee Dreams Blog

I haven't used Blurb so I can't comment. To tell you the truth the reason I have used My Publisher is because they ran a couple of 50% off sales that saved me a bit of change. I was happy with the overall quality of the prints, paper and binding.
