MY THANKS TO THOMAS RINK FOR refreshing my memory, re: blurb as a source for online photobook printing and self-publishing / sales. Consequently, I went to the site and discovered I had an account which was set up long ago (10+ years?). And, having already prepped files for book making on Shutterfly, I went ahead and made a book-2019 ~ The Year in Review-on blurb using those same files.
That book, as opposed to the 10x10 inch Shutterfly book (see above picture) of the same name which arrived today, is a 7x7 inch softcover book. I chose those size and cover options so the book would be affordable for those who might be interested in acquiring it. FYI, I'm not trying to make a profit with this book. I am just trying to make it affordable for those who are interested in seeing my iPhone created pictures in print.
That written, the print and image quality of the Shutterfly book-I selected their 6-color printing option-is really excellent-take that you iPhone skeptics. However, the cost (to me) of that book was $108.00USD. That cost was after a 50% discount! For comparison, the blurb book is selling for $32.00USD. I am quite certain that the print / paper quality of the blurb book will be comparable to that of the Shutterfly book. I will only know for certain after I receive my copy of the printed book. However, I am not losing any sleep over that issue.
