"The website is very user-friendly, but my most common problem... not enough quality to some old pictures... caused me to go outside of Blurb to get help. I needed a way of improving the pictures with a "Blurb editing tool.""

"I used Blurb to publish a memoir my mother wrote about her childhood. Our family found the memoir after my mother passed away and felt it was a treasure to share with other family. We printed out 24 copies for her siblings, nieces, and nephews. We got wonderful feedback from everyone!

I used the templates for the Adobe program InDesign that Blurb provides and these worked out very well. I included poetry and photos sprinkled throughout the book and was very pleased with the outcome. The cover looked just beautiful and the black and white printing inside was clear and crisp. It turned out to be a wonderful tribute to my mother and something we can all pass down to future generations. Thanks Blurb!"

"I certainly recommend the services and products of Blurb. I have published 5 books now which are all for private use and I could not be more impressed with the finished result. You might think you have average to good photos with some amazing ones thrown in, but I guarantee you will be amazed with the result when you see them in print using Blurb. I now have a 30 x 30 cm coffee table book of 240 pages recording an 8 week holiday from 2011 and it is the most amazing record of a wonderful holiday and I actually have friends asking to look at it again and again."

"I've been using Blurb for several years to make books of my own art and photography. I liked Blurb from the beginning because it was easy and affordable. But, Blurb has gotten better and better over time. The level of control over layout and color management, along with paper and cover options is top notch. "

"A fantastic product / service that makes me look great! I have created and ordered four or five books now, both soft and hard cover and both have been very very high quality. The user interface is a snap. Sorry to say anyone can do this ... which makes competition very easy."

"I discovered "Blurb" 5 years ago and have been a passionate user ever since that time. It not only gives one the opportunity to save precious memories, occasions & history but also allows one to use their own creativety.
I have made 14 books in these last 5 years for not only myself but also for various organizations & friend's special occasions.
I am so passionate about Blurb that I have introduced it to a Senior's Organization in my city where I volunteer teach Booksmart & Bookify to seniors & others. The class is always full and people inspired by all that Blurb offers"

"My overall experience with BLURB has been exceptional. Customer Service has been very helpful in resolving an issue I had using InDesign to pdf, and then uploading the data. I plan to have more books printed in the feature and would highly recommend Blurb to others. There software is pretty straight forward, somewhat limited, but when they offered the option to convert to .pdf from InDesign, that solved any layout issues anyone might have, (in my opinion). "

"I had so much fun making my first book on Blurb. Once I got started it was hard to stop, just like reading a good novel. I am going to make another book very soon.

"It was my mother's dream to publish a poetry book before she died and Blurb made this possible. Their Bookify program is super easy to use (made me wonder how I hadn't discovered them sooner!). Needless to say, we received such a positive, and overwhelming, response from everyone that we are in the process of making it available to the public! That means ISBN numbers and permissions for fotos, etc....ay!ay!ay! *lol* The order was for 20 Books: full-color, square format, softcover, 119 pages, no paper upgrades. They arrived 2 days early! ABSOLUTELY BREATHTAKING QUALITY! Opted for standard paper and it is gorgeous! The photographs are crisp and clear; the format is just as I envisioned! We've shown this off to sooo many people and they, too, were impressed. Although, we haven't used any other printer, we did "research" many self-publishing companies and always come back to Blurb! The only drawback in considering them was COST...it IS pricey. Cost is $27.95 per book. There are price breaks at volume orders, but these were only for family so we waited for a promotion and alas received 30% off, dropping the price to $19.57 per book!! We highly recommend BLURB! =O)"

"My second book published by Blurb. Both were excellently well produced, in remarkably quick time and in my opinion, represent really good value for money. I hope the team at Blurb maintain the very high standards they have set themselves. Well done!"
