I have finally received all of my free Photobooks. Yes, they are free! All you have to do is just look out for deals in Groupon. Usually Groupon will have offers on 6" x 6" 40page Mini Square Softcover Photobook worth RM79. So be sure to subscribe to Photobook Malaysia and Groupon for great deals.

It is really easy to design your own Photobook. Here's how I create my Photobooks:
1. Edit all chosen photos and store in a folder.
2. Download Photobook Designer.
3. Choose specific size.
4. Insert pictures and decorations. You can also use Readybook Templates.
5. After you are satisfied, click on "Check Project".
6. Place order.
7. Log in or sign up.
8. Enter voucher code if any.
9. Make payment. If it is free, you still have to pay RM8 for shipping.
*Note: Only one book per delivery means I have to pay RM8 seven times when I ordered 7 mini photobooks. It's fine to pay more for hardcover large photobooks but those mini ones are very light. I wish they could combine shipping. Other than that I have no complains.

Groupon really did offer a free photobook??? Seriously??? Excluding the shipping cost.
ReplyDeleteHi there,
DeleteYes, they are free. I only paid for the shipping cost RM8. If you subscribe to Groupon u will receive emails about their deals frequently so if lucky u might encounter some freebies. Besides you can always see friends share about free photobook on Facebook. That's how I got the news and quickly grab the deal :)
Did you have any problems with pictures that looked fine on your screen but were printed too dark? What computer did you use? I read online that it is advisable to calibrate your display to suit their colour system.
ReplyDeleteHi dear,
DeleteYes their printing always come out too dark so normally I adjust a little bit brighter or use the auto enhance on their program to suit their mode. Each monitor is either more bias to blue or green. Can tell the difference when comparing side by side coz I'm connecting to two external monitors
How long did it took for your photobook to arrive after submission of the soft copy?
ReplyDeleteHi there,
DeleteSurprisingly it was quick. I remember receiving within 5-7working days and sometimes faster
LOok nice...
ReplyDeleteHi lokman,
DeleteThank you for stopping by and glad u like it
what if the photos are taken from handphones, would the quality of the image be shown in the photobook as well?
ReplyDeleteHi Charlene,
DeleteWhen you insert photo into the page in the app it will show whether the resolution is good for printing or not. If photo is too small you can adjust the size by dragging the picture box till the warning sign dissapear. Handphone photos will work just fine as some of mine are from handphone too.
Thank you so much :)
DeleteI did print some 4R n also small size of books but my pics look dark n yellow. What should I do to improve the colors?
ReplyDeleteHello there, yes the pictures will come out abit darker than on screen so usually I would adjust the brightness. About the yellow, you can complain to Photobook as I never encounter this before
DeleteLovely photo book. Brings back old sweet memories. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Robbin!
