Photobox do a pretty comprehensive photobook creation. Just upload your shots. Quality is by all account pretty good. Never ordered photobooks from them, but they're my normal source for prints and I've always been pretty happy with the results.

yes, i've bought the photobooks from photobox - and personally i think they're excellent quality. they have a few different paper and cover options, and at the moment they have a 3 for 2 offer too.

I've used blurb for the past 4 years and I'm always happy with them

I have used both myphotobook.ie and spectra and they are both fine. I prefer myphotobook though as it has more modern layouts. I like both of these as you can download their software and fill them out on hard drive. Some of the systems seem to require you to upload to internet every photo which is slow (depends on connection I suppose). You should register with a few sites and they regularly have 25-30% off the normal price. I have bought about 12 of these books over the last 6-7 years and don't think I have ever bought one without a % reduction. I now just do a yearbook and uploaded one to myphotobook.ie last weekend. As a guide for price it was approx A4 page size (slightly less) with 144 pages and cost about €65 including postage and a 25% discount.

Aldi also make photobooks and you can download their software and make your photobook then upload to their site. They deliver your book in 8 days. It is printed in England.
Shakespeare also print photobooks, same system as Aldi. Shakespeare books are also printed in England but their site is based in Waterford.
I have used both and would use them again. But I prefer Aldi.

Blurb are pretty good. Expensive but you get what you pay for.

I'd love to know what the difference between Blurb books and photobox are?? I only have the POV of the Blurb books. I can't complain about them - except they are a bit expensive.
