Lots of photobook questions today!
I've been planning on making one for DS's first year, and I can't decide which program to use!
Which did you use, and did you like it?

My Publisher is so easy and the books are gorgeous. Can't recommend them enough! I've used other companies and their interfaces and quality can't compare to My Publisher.

@sheskrafty: @Mrs. High Heels: Does MyPublisher run good sales, or are you paying good money for good quality?

@swurlygurl: I only buy when there's a groupon out, which feels like almost always! There's one out right now! http://www.groupon.com/deals/mypublisher-3-3-orange-county
I never buy their groupons in advance anymore, I just do a search when I am ready to buy a book and it's almost always there. If not, I would just create the book as a project and save it, then wait for a deal to purchase.

I use both of them and they are both great! This is what I've found to be the differences, so I tend to use them depending on which one works better for that specific book.
Both
- Great printing quality
- photo cover
- lay-flat pages
Adorama
- Has square format books
- MUCH thicker pages (this is nice when they book doesn't have very many pages, it still feels substantial and I also think it may hold up better with heavy use)
MyPublisher
- Thinner pages (great with books with lots of pages, so they are not super thick)
- better design program
- seems to have more sales, so they are usually cheaper

@swurlygurl: I've never paid full price!
@mrs. high heels: I just bought that Groupon a few days ago!
I am making photo books for Christmas presents for the grandparents. They love them way more than getting a stack of printed pictures.

@Mrs. High Heels: That's a crazy deal! MyPublisher it is!!
@BadgerMom: That's a great comparison! I may try adorama for a small wedding pic album for my parents! Thanks!!
