Quality photo books.... shutterfly or other?

I'm going to be making a photo book for my parents' gift. I saw a discussion awhile back about photo books and which companies are best. I think most of you said you preferred Shutterfly, but I just want to make sure of that before I order.

    Unless Picaboo has updated their interface since I last saw it, I wouldn't touch it. Used to be that it was Windows XP only (I now use Mac so I'd have to run a virtual machine to try it out again). Once you'd get into it, it was rather kludgy to use.

    If you're looking for a great low priced, budget book, look to Apple. Yes. The books that you make through iPhoto.

    All the photobooks I've ever made have been on Shutterfly, and I've never had one fall apart Matt.

    I uploaded photos from our wedding last week to mypublisher.com yesterday. I had a 2 for 1 coupon, so figured I would give it a try. It was very easy to use and cost less than $50 for 2 books, plus fedex shipping. Should have the book by early next week, so will post a review.

    Between the Chapel photographers and the photograper I hired for Vegas photo tour, I will have about 2000 photos. I want to do up one really good quality classic wedding book. I will give the MPIX site a look at. Then will use Shutterly, Snapfish, etc. for the other extra photos or to do smaller books for family members.

    I have a feeling making photobooks is going to be my new hobby for the next few months.

    I have a recommendation for mpix for individual prints and artifactuprising.com for photo books from my photographers. Has anyone used artifact uprising?
