Qoop Printing...


Beaten Off The Path Color Version 2

Have no idea who is aware or not, but there's a company partnered with Flickr called Qoop. They offer online, on demand printing of web content; your flickr account, or if you have a Buzznet account you can print those, or even a blog.

As for flickr and Buzznet, you can choose to print all images, or just select sets. I find flickr to be the better option, as you can design and order your sets. On Buzznet, it takes the default order of your galleries.

The choices you have are to print one image per page, two, four or six per page, or print an entire book of thumbnails. The cost is pretty cheap: I think 15.99 for 28 pages, and then something like 13 cents per page beyond that. Or you can print a 13x19 inch poster of your flickr account in thumbnails, for 9.99.

Just ordered one for a sample to see what the print quality is like, but I'm sure it's similar if not identical to the output from LULU. Both are PDF to digital press printing, so I imagine the technology is the same also.

Oh, I'm not plugging for them, but just letting the flickr people know about Qoop, as I have not seen it on the blog lately....
oh.. yea, http://www.qoop.com
