I'm faced with all the time I've already invested into this project so I cant bring myself to just roll the dice and send what I've got as is, I mean I actually want to be as happy with the finished book as you were with yours... even if I am just giving it to my colour blind sister.
Good luck! Let me know when you upload your book! |

| Mpix.com is also supposed to be really good for compiling books. This is something I've been wanting to do for sometime as well and I might be partnering with Chilliwack Tourism on a larger production run for next summer. |

Another nice gift (in my case for myself) is to have a photo put on canvas. I just had one done through www.canvasondemand.com and was very pleased. You just send them the image and they do everything. I selected them because I'd seen some of their work beforehand. Of course stores and framing shops locally can do it too.
It was around $170+$30 postage for 24" x 36" (actually they re-adjusted to fit the cropped image).

Canvas: (it isn't at all burring as the pic suggests, just my bad camera work!)  |
