- Thanks utope!canoe
- I take it, you used them before?canoe

- +1 on blurb, at least from past experience. I've got a bunch of photo books done through them and quality has been excellent.monNom
- Had mixed results with Blurb. They botched the cover on a proof to the point that I didn't feel confident with the initial design and had to pivot a full...duckseason
- ...bleed approach. Also, the binding started falling apart on a lot of books. I don't necessarily fault them for this, as they were getting used heavily...duckseason
- ...as menus at a bar. I more so blame the client for skimping on a budget printer, but just putting it out there.duckseason
- But they are good in a pinch and decent value for the money.duckseason

- These guys do an awesome job and you can customize with matte finishes for the cover and interior, with different weights, very good pricing: https://mixam.comdavey_g
