Mediterranean vacation journal
In August after returning from our Mediterranean cruise, I spent a pretty good amount of time sorting and touching up our digital photos (around 1,500 of them). I took the best of the photos, and using my blog entries as a guide, created a physical photo journal book through the online service Blurb.com. Creating the book was no easy task, but the results are pretty amazing, and I’m very happy I went to the effort. The book is a hardcover, 38-page journal and cost around $30.00 to have professionally printed and bound. Below you can see the results (click on the photos for larger views). Since additional pages are very inexpensive ($5 for another 42 pages) I’m thinking of adding more photos and having another book or two made, but haven’t decided if I have the motivation to do that just yet.

Something about your blog – and something very new, causes Safari 1.3.2 (v312.6) to crash every time I visit your site… Strange…
Works fine in Camino…

How much of the formatting/layout did blurb do versus what you did yourself? Did it take any of the formatting from the web pages?
