ubejammin Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 I've been asked to take some informal pictures at a 90th birthday party next month. The person who is asking also requested online proofing since the family is from all over the US. She was hoping to generate some reprint sales for me while I'm doing a favor for her. I'm reluctant to sign up for online proofing as everything I've looked at requires a 1 year membership at $xx/month. I am in no way able to support this cost with what little I am doing right now. Believe me, I hope to get to that point someday, but I'm not there now and won't be in the near future. Also - I don't have a website, so I can't use that tool either. Does anyone here know of an online proofing company that I could use for a one-time shot? I'm open to suggestions. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl_miller Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 PhotoReflect is totally free, non-committal with unlimited storage space. You make up custom packages and set the retail prices and they take about an 18% cut of gross sales and send you the balance. If they had better Mac friendly software I'd still use them.

james_ogara1 Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 In a pinch there's always uploading to Shutterfly and sharing out the dircetory -- of course, you don't make anything off of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colleendonovan Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 I use quickalbums.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl_miller Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 One of the things I forgot to mention I liked most about PhotoReflect was that you had the option of filling the order yourself -- either through your regular lab or self-printing. Most other online companies require you to use their printing services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colleendonovan Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 Quick Albums doesn't give you the option... you have to use your own lab. The customer pays online and then you fill the order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alan_fox1 Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Andrea, I think QuickAlbums.com will be perfect for you. They do not require a contract, you pay month to month, and you can stop anytime you want. Good thing is that they also include a free domain and a free basic website, so you can get the whole deal for only $25. Since they also have 30 day money back guarantee, you will not lose anything if you try them. As you said there are many other options but most of them requires a 1 year membership or a 1 year contract. Another good thing is that you have the option to be in charge of fulfilling or not. So you can always fulfill your print orders at costco or cvs, or anywhere you want. Or you can use a Partner Print Lab from Quickalbums, I think they are working with Miller's Lab now. A second option will be morephotos, but I dont know if they have a contract or not. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
