Default Free Photo Book

This deal was on my Facebook news feed from Cheryl.

Limited first time My Publishers customers Free Photo Book.

It's good for a 7.75 x 5.75. Just in time for Valentines Day!

thanks for the heads-up! That would just be for their designs? Can you add full-bleed? I haven't checked it out further yet...

Anke, yes you can have a full bleed page ... simply change the page layout to one photo and there is a red line around the edges showing what will be cut off. I recently used MyPublisher for a photo book ... used their "Photos Only" style option and simply dragged my photos onto the pages by selecting how many photos I wanted on each page. They also offer an option to place a large photo across two pages ... really a great affect for landscape photos. I was pleasantly surprised when I received the book ... colors were perfect, clarity was beautiful, dust jacket was wonderful, and binding seems to be of great quality. They do not offer square sizes ... I made my photo book 8.75 x 11.25 and I really love the size. I recommend using this free offer to complete a simple book with a combination of scrapbook pages and plain photos so you can check out their product. If they offered 12x12, I would have recently ordered my 2011 book with them but instead used Shutterfly since all my pages were designed 12x12. I'm in the midst of making 8.5 x 11 pages for my summer vacation so I can use MyPublisher again to see how well scrapbook designs turn out.

Thanks, Lisa, I used the coupon for a free hard cover 5 x 7.5 photo book today. (valued at 19.95) The software you download was easy to figure out how to use. The cover allowed me to place a full bleed photo. Other pages could be full bleed, as well. I used the photos only option since the book is small and I just wanted to try out their service for quality. I only had to pay shipping.

Like Gail says, there is no square page size option, but, if you were to design in one of their sizes you could use the full bleed option. Gail, I'm glad to know you thought the quality was good.

Thanks for the heads up, LIsa! I've never used My Publisher, but my cousin has used them for several really nice looking books. I have copies of about five of her books and love each of them.

Oh, that is good to hear, Mollie. I thought it was an offer just too good to pass up so now I'm really eager for my free book to arrive.

Thanks, again, Lisa.

Yeah I'm glad you ladies were able to get your books done! I just checked and I have until the 2nd to finish up. I'm looking forward to seeing what their print quality is like.
