moo.com MiniCards

12 Oct 2006

A few weeks ago moo.com launched a very nice service, they take your flickr photos and make small business cards using those photos.

They did a promotion where they gave batches of 10 away I got some of those as soon as they came out and have since bought 100. At US$19.99 it's a steal - the equivalent of about GBP10.

The experience is overall great, the cropping doesn't always come out exactly as expected I have 2 images that I literally just have to through away since they are spoilt but I put about 30 images in so that only really come to about 6 cards. My suggestion is just don't crop with stuff too close on the sides, otherwise I can really recommend it if you want something different from the usual.

The print and paper quality is great, apart from the cropping oddness I'm very happy.
