report on the quality of Qoop Books

Post posted on Wed Nov 29, 2006 12:36 pm

i thought i'd comment here seperately since i think people might be interested in printing a book to keep for all their work done.
I did one of dollies and non dollies.
I was too lazy to seperate the vertical versus horizontal orientation so i did a trial run. (i will print more in future when i get to sorting them out)

note. I dont upload the maximum resolution because i like to keep those seperate on my HDD.
So i chose the thumbnail prints because they were 1)cheaper and 2)cuter.

I have to say the book is very very well done. The binding was fantastic, the cover was glossy
the individual pages inside were matt which is fantastic (i thought it was glossy throughout but this is good so it doesn't attract sticky prints)

I find the printing to be fairly good (not excellent as you can see pixelated images but it may be due to me not having uploaded high res items there)

Books are considered ZERO VAT RATED in the UK so that would be helpful.(this service ships from USA)
I chose DHL so there is some kind of insurance.

i think IMHO this is fun! and great as giveaway as gifts to family..

Janapha, at the time of printing, there is no horizontal vertical sort. one has to manually sort those pics before they uploaded :cry: i will be doing that for my future books

Inoue, you're welcome. Will you be doing some for yourself?
