Blurb – you download the program and it auto saves. I’ve had no problems with it. I haven’t seen the final product yet but I know Jenna said she was impressed when she got her Father’s Day books. They currently have free shipping. Not as good as free but better than nothing :)

I would be highly upset if that happened to me. Well, it has, but luckily I had just started when the book just magically disappeared. I love Shutterfly, even those it usually costs more. But I’m able to piece together coupon codes from here and there until it’s pretty reasonable…

You know, a lot of people had issues with Inkubook, which really annoys me. So sorry you did, too. I’ve made all mine on Photoworks.com, and I had no issues.

Do you have a Mac? Apparently most people that had problems were on Macs (which is what I have).

Inkubook is really bad. I had to hire someone to come fix my computer after I installed that program of theirs on my computer. Thanks for that $75 bill, Inkubook!

I have to second Blurb. I’ve never had an issue, there are more options and the price is the best.

I think you should try out Mixbook – they have an easy, online scrapbook editor that is totally free to use and requires no download at all. You can add stickers, backgrounds and choose from a bunch of fonts to fully customize your books.

And they’ve got great prices and softcover and hardcover photo books.

Check it out at http://www.mixbook.com.

Just FYI – I am one of the founders, so I’m a little biased. Feel free to email us with questions at support at mixbook dot com.

I know it’s been a while since you posted this, but I wanted to let readers know about my experience with Inkubook. Same thing happened with stuff freezing. I paid $15 for a Groupon…. after chatting with support today and having them give me PC based instructions despite me telling them twice I was on a mac, this is what they said:

NIKI: do you guys have known issues on macs?

NIKI: this is so ridiculous!

NIKI: the edit, invite, buy, and share buttons dont work

Francine: Yes, Inkubook is mainly supported by MS silverlight and silverlight does not play well with MAC.

NIKI: the copy and delete dont work either

NIKI: so can i get a refund for my groupon?

NIKI: i dont have a pc

NIKI: all my photos are on my mac

NIKI: ive spend hours messing witht his stuff

Francine: Inkubook will run on MAC if it is an intel PC. But still not 100% glitch free.

NIKI: that wasn’t in the fine print on the groupon i bought

Francine: I really do apologize but according to our FAQs it is stated there already about MAC users going for Inkubook.

NIKI: so can i get a refund?

NIKI: or do i need to go to groupon?

Francine: According to FAQ General Questions article 2 and 3 about silverlight and MAC.

NIKI: so can i get a refund????

NIKI: since it doesnt work?

Francine: If you want a refund you need to contact Groupon.

Francine: You can raise the concern to Groupon directly.

Francine: Will there be anything else that I can assist you with?

NIKI: inkubook is a horrible company. i know it’s not your fault. that will be all.

Francine: I do apologize, but we are not a horrible company. It is about understanding the system and softwares and how it operates. By the way Groupon is a separate entity.
