Title: Lulu
Post by: Photosgraphis on February 01, 2007, 08:42
Hi,       
  I'm not sure if this is the right place for posting this, as it's not exactly a microstock subject, but, anyway, I'd like to know if anyone has ever tried to sell images,  photo calendars or even photo books at Lulu ( http://www.lulu.com/)? I don't know if it's a good idea to try it or not...

        Thanks

I once bought a book on Lulu - 130 different ways to make Jello Shots.

It's not safe.

It looks like an interesting site.  I might have to look into it.

It is only unsafe if you add to much vodka and then have to many - the memories (or lack of memories should I say).

So, what do you think about the quality of their prints, is it acceptable?

I did a test print for a photo book.... looks like crap! It's good for normal books but the print quality for photos is horrible.

I would recommend mypublisher or winkflash. They use 4 color process. I did a test book with Mypublisher and it came out fantastic!  :)

I think acceptable is subjective in this instance. 

I think it was acceptable for what I bought, but if you're looking for a nicely bound coffee table book for your images you may be disappointed (though I'm not sure if there are other levels of binding that you can sell as an option).
