Now that I have my B Pics I need to create a book to put them in.  Any info on either site (or a different one!) would be appreciated! TIA ladies!

    I used shutterfly last night to make my photoguest book. It was very easy to use. I ended up using the custom book, not the easy path and it wasn't difficult to figure out. I was happy with how it came out. I guess I will have to wait until it shows up to atest to the quality though.

    Oh and I chose shutterfly because I had a $20 gift card from using Target's registry but I happened to notice it had an expiration date. So be careful not to wait too long, I almost missed mine.

    I used Shutterfly to make wedding albums for the parents for Christmas, it was super simple and they turned out really good! I've never made a book on any other site, but I liked that Shutterfly makes it really easy to play with the layout and change things around.

    I started with Shutterfly and liked them but didn't like the price. I ended up with Mixbook because of the groupon and loved my result.

    FYI if you review 5 wedding vendors on WeddingChannel.com you qualify for a free 8x8 shutterfly book. It's small but may be worth it to you!

    Otherwise, I know Aligross just posted a promo code for a free shutterfly book. I like free :)

    I just made a shutterfly album for my hubby's B-pics and was pleasantly surprised that you can basically design your own layout now which you couldn't do before.  That was one of their big drawbacks in the past.  They have basic photo editing too so you can fade or enrich the colors, remove red eye, re-orient the images, etc.  I was pretty happy.  If you get on their mailing list they've always got deals going on for  free shipping or % off books.

    I have used Shutterfly, but have heard Mixbook is WAY better, so I am using that for my guestbook.

    I just used Mixbook to make two books with our wedding pictures for our parents! It was incredibly easy to use and they turned out fantastic! I highly recommend them, and also they have groupon's fairly regularly.

    My vote would be for Mixbook. I have in the past used shutterfly but becuase I had a groupon for Mixbook ($15 for $50) I used them for my guestbook and I cannot even tell you how happy I am with it! There are so many things you can do with the program they have. I have been working on yearbooks/scrapbooking for years and Mixbook really is the best in my opinion for digital scrapbooks!
