5. Kodak Gallery

Like Snapfish, Kodak Gallery was part of last year’s online photo services roundup. Also like Snapfish, Kodak offers a 5x7-inch photo book option, though Kodak’s pricing is only $6.99 for a starter book of 10 pages (and only $0.29 for each additional page).

Kodak’s photo book options are extremely limited at this small size. You can’t control layout, so each page is just one image with the orientation that you have in your original file (so, no flipping, editing or enhancing).

The time from order confirmation to order shipment confirmation took approximately17 hours, which is very quick.

The Kodak photo book arrived as a true 5x7 with a glossy heavy cardstock cover that had a matte finish that felt more like vinyl. Images were as crisp as any 5x7 print you’d get from Kodak. When we opened up the book, though, the interior photo spread noticeably made the interior of the binding visible. That’s not a good sign for a new book, though there was no evidence to suggest that pages were on the verge of falling out.

Kodak Gallery provided a decent user experience but the non-existent layout capabilities are a serious and significant detraction for this service.

Just a note to let you know that the newest release of the Lulu Studio now let you rotate your images and our next release will add image reflection and scaling controls.

I'm amazed. An american site makes 5 photo albums with pictures of a Swedish castle and they picked the castle my family OWNED (once). Now it's property of the government and the municipal or something.
It was of a great help when we fought the danish anyway, that's what counts.
