How can you look at creation and say there is no God?

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

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.

From memory you also get 20 free print when you create an account.

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) ...
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.
When art critics get together, they talk about Form, Structure and Meaning.
When artists get together, they talk about where you can buy cheap turpentine.

I was going to use lulu.com for when I wanted to print my zine at the end of the year, but after reading their shipping etc, I dont think they post to aus?
Apple in Australia will print photo books and calendars, details here.
Cheers, PeterB.
