I have CM print the books I really care about. But for fun books that the kids are going to wear out paging through as tots, I don't mind Shutterfly. I also have backups of my photos and the books I've created, in about 35 places. :-) Linda Karis, point well taken. I have CM print the books I really care about.

I want my kids to have their books when they head to college, their own home, for grandkids I may never meet. This is worth the worthy difference. Hold them and you can tell a noticeable quality difference. my two cents. Or join and enjoy the discount everytime. Shutterfly quality makes me “shutter”

I can do pages much more quickly, and they take up so much less room on a shelf! Even though I get sticker shock each time I purchase an album, I've worked out the costs and they're similar to what I used to spend on a 12x12 album, photo printing, and all of the doodads for the pages. Don't tell the CM people, but if I want to save money on the album printing cost, I save the pages as .jpg's and then upload them to Shutterfly or another service and have them printed there when I have coupon codes. Works like a charm! I’ve been using the CM software for 3 years now and I love it. I can do pages much more quickly, and they take up so much less room on a shelf!

I really did forget the program had two discs.... I swear! What's funny is this page is so similar to my style in my "paper" albums. I've got to cut loose and try some more funky/unusual-for-me things w/ the software. Ha! I really did forget the program had two discs…. I swear!
