Custom photo book publisher MyPublisher recently launched Photographer's Showcase an audio/visual show and tell from accomplished photographers about the books they've created with MyPublisher.

The first three photographers in the showcase are an impressive lot and their books look fantastic. Each of them raves about the quality of the books they received from MyPublisher. I was underwhelmed when I used MyPublisher a few years ago but these testimonials make me think I should give it another shot for a project that I'm working on this fall and winter.

The three photographers are:

Rick Smolan: Time, Life and National Geographic photographer. Creator of "America 24/7" and "The Day in the Life" book series.

Terry Gruber: celebrity wedding photographer (Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas, Billy Joel, etc.). Gruber is using his book as a ready-to-travel portfolio that he can give to wedding planners.

James Danziger: Photo Editor The London Sunday Times, Features Editor, Director of Photography for Vanity Fair

photofront is a cool online application that takes your Flickr sets and turns them into very slick, flash based galleries. The galleries are beautiful, navigation is easy and intuitive and setup takes less than 2 minutes. You select which Flickr sets get turned into galleries so this application makes it dead simple to create very professional, very good looking photography portfolios or just really cool slideshows, much cooler than the default Flickr ones.

photofront is free but the paid version (one time $10 fee) gives you access to pro features like removing ads from your galleries and allowing you to customize gallery titles and subtitles. Well worth the $10.
