Re: Hotprints.

I have been getting one a month for some time now. I got a few last year then this year I have been making one every month for my 365 project.
They were orginally completely free but they have recently added a postage charge.

All the books I have had have been great.
However, the interface for uploading your photos and making your book is really tedious and not terribly easy to use so make sure you allow plenty of time to do it, but for that price it is hard to complain!
It is also worth saving you book then previewing it a little while later before ordering as sometimes text appears to fit while you are making it, but words are chopped off in the final copy.
Kit 1
Canon 550D
Canon 50mm 1.8
Sigma 30mm 1.4
on loan: Tamron 90mm
Kit 2

Hotprints - Update

Re: Hotprints.

OK

I ordered my book last Saturday and paid £2.34.

I received it this morning [Friday] so it took 6 days in total from order to delivery.

The book has a double page advert in the middle which can easily be removed.

The quality of the photos printed on the paper is not excellent but good enough for little reminder books of a good day out or holiday.

As you get four free per month [well £2.34 each] I shall be ordering some more.

I had two - five pics on each page, the next book I will do I am going to try one large pic on each page. It will be trial and error at which is the best but at that price it is hardly a prob.

I shall be doing my fave photos from each year of my sons growing up period and maybe some holiday books.

The photos do take a long time to upload so give your self some time when doing it.

Any questions please ask.

All the pictures have a nasty bluey green cast.
