Speaking of online printing, I ran into this on Costco's web site.
I was wondering if someone is using something similar (I assume that all of you wedding photogs ought to be using something like this).
My Publisher
I'd be interested in learning about other options and pros/cons on using such concept.

thanks!

I think there's been some quality issues with the photo books, but I have no personal experience.

I've gotten great results from the Costco nearest me -- uploaded images are available for pickup at the store in 1-4 hours, though the online price for 4x6 prints is a bit higher ($0.17 vs 0.14) than the in-store price. Around here, a 5x7 is $0.39, an 8x10 is $1.49 and a 12x18 is $2.99.

DPC Prints gives great results, but can take a little longer than some places. You do not need to submit images for approval which you're just going to order for yourself, and the print images don't count towards your Portfolio space allocation.

I've had a play with mypublisher, the most annoying thing is the preset layouts and fonts, and having to use their buggy application rather than laying out your own pdfs... that and their really vague specifications about the sizes of pages and resolutions they print at, making it really uncertain by how much your full-bleed images will be cropped... that and they need an american credit card to order the finished product.

As for online printing, i find dpcprints to be very nice quality... and one of the few top quality sites that will ship anywhere in the world, which is a big bonus.

I like DPC Prints, although the local Walmart did a good job on my photos...
