Moo Minicards: A Photographer's Friend

Moo is a delightfully quirky printing company based out of the UK with an equally quirky product that they call "Minicards" that are incredibly fun, especially for digital photographers. Minicards measure 28mm wide, 70mm tall, and they're printed with a matte laminate finish on 350g/m2 paper (think business card stock). The print quality is extremely high, with no discernible dot patterns that I could see. So what makes these little cards so much fun? Everything! First off, unlike pretty much every other printing process for cards that I can think of, they allow you to upload up to 100 images for your 100 Minicards. Or, if you want, you can upload only 10 images and you'll get 10 Minicards of each image - or any combination thereof (you get the idea). They have a great interface for pulling photos from your Flickr, Facebook, and other accounts, or you can upload images off your computer. If you dont' want to use your own photos, they have a variety of ready-made designs. On the back you can have up to six lines of text, and a choice of several small icons. I wish there were more icon choices though! Read more...
