I had to call customer service to get rid of all the fancy pages and multiple image layouts Shutterfly wanted to put in, but I got there, until the surprise at the end. So I did it again, choosing the "Custom" path and got in and out in 10 minutes, including the time to upload 25 photos. At first, I opted for "Simple Path," but this path wasn't simple, and it was hard to rejigger Shutterfly choices.
Shutterfly is the best-known photo website, I've bought albums from them for years. But the process usually drives me crazy, as its software is the most overwhelming, with too many choices and few options for manual override.įor this project, I truly did get it done, but I had to try several times.Additionally, the 8x12 album pricing was more expensive than competitors at $64, so when it was clear I couldn't do this in 10 minutes or less, I gave up and moved on. Adorama offered so many choices that it was dizzying, and I spent too much time trying to override them and make the choices I wanted to make.Flash is a notorious security risk and will be finally discontinued by Adobe in 2020.
I've used Blurb in the past, and they do great work. But for this project, I wanted to use web or app tools, and Blurb instructed me to download the latest Adobe Flash desktop software to continue. (As a Prime member, I got it free.) Shutterfly quoted me $9 for this, and I declined.īoth Blurb and Adorama both got knocked out of consideration. Amazon had the best deal and didn't overcharge for shipping. I ended up ordering the album from Amazon Prints for two reasons: simplicity and pricing. But if you keep focused, and stand your ground, you can achieve it.įor this project, I visited Shutterfly, Blurb, Adorama Pix, Google Photos, Amazon Prints, Snapfish and ChatBooks. Of course, getting there is hard unless you use Google Photos software, which is the only one of the photobook makers I've frequented that believes in pure simplicity. Goals: Mine was simple: 25 photos, one per page, as clean as possible, without mucking it up with multiple photos, or fancy layouts, in an 8 1/2-by-11 hardcover book. You will be hit with an onslaught of way too many options from the vendors that could potentially trip you up into rabbit hole territory. Like A-vacation, B-vacation, C-vacation works for me, or 1_vacation, 2_vacation or 3_vacation.
