How much did you pay, and who did you use?
I thought I was finally happy with my Shutterfly album...went to order it...and now am second guessing it based on the price ($169.00 for 96 pages, pre-shipping).
How does that compare to what you've done?

I was thinking about using mpix.com. You have to design the pages yourself. It looks like more of how a pro photographer would go about designing/ordering you an album with a leather cover, foil stamp, flushmounted pages (the pages are thick and not bendy, and lay flat when open). The downside is that you have to design each page yourself in Photoshop or Indesign and make sure you get dimensions and trims correct, so if you had problems with vistaprint this might not be a good option. It's also a bit more expensive ($165 for 20 pages - 10 front and backs, but they look SO nice.
However, because I want to get this done by Christmas for parents, there's a huge chance I'll use iPhoto to get their albums. They are pretty cheap, EXCELLENT quality (linen covers), and really really easy to make (pick a theme, and then a layout of 1-?? images per page, etc). Fast shipping too. If you have a Mac, they are worth checking out.
