Bismillahirrahmanirrahim.
Okay, to those who know me on instagram, sure you guys know that there were multiple times I've posted regarding this Photobook Malaysia thingy right. This is because I reallllyyyyy doooooo likeeeeee the productssss (Hope this will emphasize enough LOL). I think I've purchased voucher from Photobook Malaysia for about 17 times, whoaaa shouldn't i get loyal customer membership or something! Hahaha.
Part of my purchases, including the photo in those albums. Hahah I have bad experience with photo that securely been kept in a machine called laptop and suddeny need to be format and suddenly pofffttt takde back up. Hahaha.....
There were several times people asked me on how to purchase and use it etc etc. So i hope this post will be a little help. It's quite complicated at first but later on, it will be easier, insyaAllah.
Okay, so let's start.
This will be on how the main page look like.
You may click any columns to see the service provided. There are things like photobook of course, photoprint, canvas, metal print, note book, greeting card, coaster and lots more.
But as for me personally, i like to see what's on promotion! (On top right side of the page - bold red colour one)
How the promotion page will look like.
Sometime the promotion was like perghh.... Walaupun product yg sama ada promotion tp kadang-kadang lain sesi promotion, lain price! Recently, their 10th year anniversary i think, the prices were soooo tempting.
You need to sign up first if you wanna proceed with the process like 'my vouchers' etc.
Andaikata ada products yg chuolls berminat dan nak purchase, chuolls boleh click on respected items, contoh yg berminat ialah 11" x 11" square imagewrap hardcover promotion price RM 102 :
1. Click dekat item tu.
2. Baca desription semua, berminat dan nak proceed, pilih jenis binding nak kalau ada choice. Ataupun berapa banyak page nak, biasanya both lain prices dan pages.
3. Kalau nak berfikir dulu jadi nak beli ke tak, boleh. Check "limited time only!" untuk tengok promotion berapa lama lagi.
4. In case jadi nak beli, click buy now.
5. Akan keluar page "Your purchase". Okay check balik betul ke item tu awak nak beli.
6. Dekat bawah page yg sama, method of payment provided. Personally saya suka guna paypal. Selain tu ada jugak credit card / debit card / internet banking / maybank2u .
7. Go on with the process, sampai lah kena tunggu sekejap untuk dapat email voucher yg awak beli. Voucher ni concept dia prepaid tau. Beli dulu, guna kemudian. Gituuu.
Contoh email voucher
8. Voucher tu boleh simpan dan perap sampaaaaai lah awak nak guna bila, tapi jangan upload project lebih expired date! (Expired date ni ada di inform dekat email voucher tu).
Untuk memudahkan proses edit dan upload gambar ke server, sila click "start here" dekat photobook designer, downloadable software.
Ni rupa software bila dah di download!
Untuk start project photobook . photoprint etc chuolls, sila click "create a new project". Tapi kalau nak open project yg dah start buat, sila click "open an existing project".
Bila dah click "Create a new project" , ada choices macam ni. Pilih product yg awak purchase.
Ni contoh yg akan keluar kalau awak pilih photobook. Dan proceed ikut steps seterusnya okay :D
Ni contoh yg akan keluar kalau awak click "Open an existing project"
Ni contoh new project sebelum masuk gambar dan edit gambar :D
1. Contoh untuk masukkan gambar, boleh click button ' + ' dekat atas kiri page, click ' computer ' dan pilih sama ada ' Add individual picture files ' atau ' Add folder containing pictures '.
2. Discover how to use and edit them :D
3. Bila dah edit semua dan rasa ready to cuci, click icon cart yg colour hijau dekat bahagian kanan page tu.
Follow the steps cam biasa
4. Browser anda akan terbuka dengan sendirinya untuk masukkan voucher code dan settle kan the rest of payment which is postage fees, details macam address apa semua tu, follow the next step okay.
5. Bila payment semua dah settle, back to software. Dia akan macam loading sikit sekejap, sampai keluar satu windows yg ada 3 choises , taksure exact terms dia apa tapi lebih kurang upload through browser (kiri sekali) , speed test dengan apetah satu lagi. Click yg kiri sekali tuuu.
6. Project anda sedang diupload.
7. Dannnnn, siap! Anda akan dapat email upload confirmation daripada pihak Photobook Malaysia beserta Order number - which is important for track order.
Macam ini!
Pihak photobook akan hantar email bila parcel dah di post out!
Email shipping confirmation :D
Durasi order saya siap berbeza ikut products, tapi mostly within a week working days after upload project and payment tuuu.
Bila dah sampai, inside of the parcel will look like this (depends on the items) :
The album will be secured with box (according to the size of the products) and covered by string (not in photo)
Contoh photobook yg dah siap! Ni : 11 x 8.5 Medium Landscape Debossed Lay Flat.
Cover : Leather : Ebony
Page count : 22
Paper type : 280gsm E Photo Lustre
I really love the material from the cover to the paper type!
Ni Flat Lay. Opening angle dia about 180 degrees (or more). Kalau standard binding macam binding biasa untuk majalah, novel, buku teks cenggitu.
Oh and usually with every purchase ada discount voucherrrr!
Okay i think that's all for this review! Oh and this review is based on my statisfaction of the products not paid review or anything okayyy. And as I've said it before, sebab ada beberapa orang tanya macam mana nak guna etc etc, sooo I hope this will be a little bit of help lah kan.
Any inquiries cam biasa, boleh tanya through my email (address ada dekat side bar sebelah ni) or comment below, or dm my instagram , or my Askfm : MujahidahAsri okayyy. That's all, Thank youuuu!
Assalamualaikum :)
