making books using blurb.com?

[henkelphoto]

Has anyone produced a book using blurb.com? I'm thinking of doing one and wondering how the quality is as well as how easy it goes together. Also, how long does it take to get the finished book back?

Thanks!

I did one for my workshop attendees. I've done the hard cover and the soft cover. The old hard cover I didn't like but the new image wrap hard cover is nice. The soft cover was okay but cheap feeling.

They do not compare to the quality of let's say Asuka Book but they get the job done and as long as you have decent callibration and your images print well through your usual lab, they should look pretty good. My images looked really good in them - again, not Asuka quality, but definitely decent.
