Just got my B pic book and have to say...

Original post by PeteysBride

Ladies who are thinking about mking your guy a book...DON'T choose 12x12 just because it has a pretty cover!!!
It came out nice but DAYUM WAY too much of me like BLAM HERE I AM!!!

So needless to say, I'm not comfortable with it at all-iI know only he will see it but its like REALLY narcissitic, almost like hanging a wall size pic from your wedding in the living room....

Smaller format would have been better..8x8 maybe but I just thought the larger size would allow me to put more pics ona page. It did BUT seriously..one some where theres one photo its just ALLL there to see...Oh well..boys like T&A so should be fine.... Cest la vie.

ETA: ANyone wnating to use snapfish, its a GOD AWFUL interface. Really non user friendly BUT...The quality is FANTASTIC! Definetly more expensive than the other places but the quality of the pages is much higher than even Picaboo and you know how much I love them. They also have large format books which many places do not and they ahve a 110% gurahntee which I LOVED.

If for ANY reason you are unhappy, they will reprint it or refund you so its def worth the $$. Just wanted to let y'all know.

OMG Jenn don't be so shyyyy the brief peek I had at the pix you showed here tells me DH is going to be speechless. And you know boys... bigger is better!!!

Did you go for the red velvet or the leather???? Either way I bet its an AWESOME keepsake.

And I never catch stories about the reveal!!!! You have to tell us how you present it and how long it takes him to recover!!!!!



I went with the red velvet and am glad I did because its TOTALLY faux velvet lol. More like a thin microsuede material. So I don't think it till get damaged like real velvet and DH Vaccums our microsuede duvet cover every week with the special attachment and its fine so I will just give it a suck or two with the hose if it starts getting dusty.

The reveal is in frickin JUNE! can you believe it? LOL thats when his birthday is. Ironically we will probably have our DAY AFTER pics back by then and put into an album by the time I can give him this book

Interesting stuff you posted about snapfish I must say. I didn't think it was that hard to be honest. Or did I read that wrong
I had done my HM album with them and after reading a review you did one day about picaboo I thought I might have made a bad choice.
I didn't know about the 100% guarantee either b/c one of my pix were scratched and I never complained to them about it. It was on the front cover too.

I am still on a search for hot pink covers..Don't hold out Jenn if you find one.



I found it confsing to use. Like when you sign up alot of hoops to jump through. Picaboo is very straight forward especially when you want to share your book with someone. ou just send them a link and its upfront. But snapfish allowed that and yet when people clicked the link they couldnt just view it. They had to be members which meant making a free acocount then they were asked to load pics...just a lot of steps. Picaboo is just easier to use.

BUT again I think the quality of snapfish definetly nicer-heavier weight pages and a nice subtle gloss. I asked them what would happen if they orederd my book wrong because the order didnt show the right cover and they said they would just take it back no issue AND its a 110% gurantee because if you're unhappy they give you a ten percent coupon for your next purchase.

Srill looking for pink covers!




TY soo much
