Making a photobook - Blurb vs Shutterfly vs Mypublisher, etc

Anyone have any personal experience with these products? I'd like to hear from you guys because I'll be making a huge one & it will most likely exceed $120+.

I think I'm leaning towards Shutterfly at the moment, but I'd like to hear your opinions on the others as well.

Thanks in advance!

I made one on Blurb of our dinner party for the in-laws anniversary. It came out nice, and wasn't too expensive, had 4 copies made, too

I can't suggest one over the other, but do a google search for coupons on shutterfly and you can save a bundle. My wife enjoys making shutterfly books and she can usually find 2 or 3 coupons at a time.

^ I currently receive coupons from Mypublisher & a 20% of for Shutterfly.

I don't need fancy backgrounds (black, white or a light gray bg is nice).

The only downside I see for Shutterfly is that they are limited to 100 pages...I have approx. 600 images and some of them are going to be full page or a double page spread.

Blurb seems to be the choice if I go the budget route...

on my 8th or 9th book with MP. Never a bad experience and always delivers ahead of schedule.
