I finished my 2008 yearbook, but it's still on the way. Sam, you'd asked for pictures of a photobook, so here are a few from the book I got for my sister. She doesn't really like her pictures on the net, so I'll leave them up until you see them, and then I'll remove them. Sorry they're not the best quality, I used my little p&s and snapped really quickly to give you the idea.
The cover:
Inside the front cover, and the white semi-transparent sheet before the first page:
Some more pages showing some options for layout.
This album was very easy to make, I just selected the number of pictures I wanted on the page, and then the layout, then I put the pictures I wanted in each slot. It was fast, I finished and ordered it within a two hour MAX period.
It was through mypublisher.com. I am very pleased with the quality and the options, and especially with how user friendly it was. I just didn't like paying $75 CAD for 2 books (buy one get one free) of only 26 pages. That's taxes, shipping and customs/duty through Fedex. Well, because it was for two books, that's not as bad, but I wouldn't pay that for one book of 26 pages.
I ordered the 2008 book yesterday through photobookcanada.com. They are much more expensive, but I won't have any surprises when they come in because they are Canadian. That's what I wanted. They are supposed to have really good quality. I liked the options for their layouts, but not as much as the layouts for the mypublisher.com. Because you can custom make your layouts with photobookcanada, the pictures could be moved around, and sometimes that got annoying. Price-wise, it was around $225 CAD shipping/taxes etc included for 3 books of 80 pages. I used a 40% off code which saved $132. Not bad!
I'm not sure if I would have used either company without the codes.
