If you've ever used the THiNC printing press, or read a THiNC book, and thought about what your book would look like in real life, now is your chance! Blurb, an online company that prints your book designs for you, is having a 20% off sale on 8x10 hardcover books. The code to enter is travel20-P9C24.Once on the site, you are able to download software that is really easy to use. You are able to choose the size and orientation of your book, the theme, background, and borders. It even lets you select your own font! From there, you can load images from your hard drive, picasa, or flickr. It will let you know if it believes the picture to be too small for quality printing.
I had the chance to meet the Blurb team at SXSW and they totally rocked. This is something you don't want to miss out on. The sale ends on September 30th, so get started!
1. Okay... so you don't own a Mac and have never actually seen one then. LOL
Every Macintosh user has been able to do this for the last 5 or 6 years. ;)
Oh, and Kodak has been offering the same thing (for Mac, PC, Linux - anyone with a web browser) for almost as long. So has Sony. ...and a few others.
Okay - not bashing you - I'm happy you've discovered this. Just saying it really isn't news. :)
