Tri-fold brochures

front & back

front & inside

I haven't received my Blurb book yet, its on its way, but I did already get back my tri-fold brochures from Vistaprint. I am happy with the design I made using their handy photoshop template, although I do see a couple of things I would change next time, but I am disappointed with the clarity of the images/words. Vistaprint tells you to make the file 300 dpi, but then they constrain the size of the file so low, that you have to compromise that dpi to get it to upload. Its not a problem for small business or postcards, but for the 8.5 x 11 pamphlet, 300 dpi makes a BIG file.

Anyhoo I still am happy with them for the most part.

These look great Nicole. It's hard to tell about the resolution from the photographs. Were they expensive?

These are beautiful with your lovely images. This isn't a criticsm, just how I see: For my old eyes, I find black with white or pale colored letters very difficult to read and that may make the resolution problem worse. I don't read blogs that are black backgrounds, I just can't see them. They do look pretty, though. The art stands out.

Your work always amazes me!

Nicole, the brochure looks quite inviting. Very professional in appearance too..not something I would easily toss aside. Great choice of images too!
