My mum asked me for another of those albums that I did for her years ago on my Macbook for this Christmas.

I've just spent a while dragging the best one's into the book template and then clicked "buy" and lo! and behold it would appear that Apple don't support my version anymore and I'll have to buy an upgrade for £50.

Fek! that! they would have been charging me around £30 for the album so can anyone recommend another site that allows you to arrange your pics from your library easily then prints the whole thing off for you.

Cheers.

Funnily enough, I have just used them but just as I finished and went to the checkout, darn! it's a US site!

Was expected to get raped on the shipping but it was only $9.99 for 2 albums and claims that I will get them by the 15th.

Fingers crossed, cheers.

I thought Blurb was available in the UK directly?

Snapfish does books, but not sure if they are any good.

Have used Snapfish in the past too, pretty good although I prefer iPhoto offerings smile

Agree. I've seen other firms book offerings, and they never quite look as pro as the iPhoto ones.

The gadget show did a review on these a couple of weeks ago, might be worth looking at their site for info.

Yep... but they are printed in mainland Europe. http://www.blurb.com/

Your ETA of 15th will usually be beaten, but as it's Christmas....

I was going to say that, so I'll second it smile

It was one of their more thorough and even handed comparisons too.
