Anyone ever ordered one?
Whats the quality like?

Im currently working on one with photos of my brothers wedding and dont want to waste more time on this project if the quality of the books is cheap and tacky.

Are the photobooks good enough for displaying high quality, high res wedding photos?

They're OK... the printing is fine, but the binding is pretty cheap and not all that attractive. They're cheap though. Winkflash and My Publisher aren't bad either.

I have ordered two different albums which I created from travel photos. Both were the softback variety and I was quite pleased with the quality and price. They made very nice gifts for traveling companions who were not taking photos.

Cheers all, I ordered the hardback version, hopefully it will be fine!

Another option is viovio.com - you can save out your PDF from iPhoto and upload it at their site. The formats are a little different - i think you can get 11x8.5 die cut or a 9x7 scaled softcover with the same file, however the prices are much cheaper, especially for bigger books.

Good luck!

Pretty good book, not bad at all.
