Moo!

My replacement Moo cards arrived today, which was very fast.

I think the service I have had for this freebie is better than what I have had from some other companies for quite expensive goods.

Now that I have seen the cards with my own photos printed on them I am in a much better position to judge how good they are, since I have seen the originals. Obviously the quality of the output depends on the quality of the input, and I am no expert photographer , but the definition on the cards looks very good.

A couple of them look a little darker than I expected, but still more than acceptable. But it occurs to me that I have only ever seen these pictures on a monitor, and they are all optimised to look good on the screen.

The cards are an odd shape, and choosing the best crop of a photo to work in that shape is a real challenge as most photos are in a much more square format, and I try to compose pictures to use the frame properly. Not all pictures lend themselves to this treatment, and these freebie cards really help to see what is likely to work and what isn’t.

Anyway, I think I may get myself a big box of these on the strength of the samples and the customer service.

(Apologies to Andrew if his cards haven’t turned up yet – I don’t want to keep rubbing it in)
