I'm not quite sure where to post this so sorry if it's in the wrong spot. It's kind of a n00b question...:D

I'm looking for recommendations for a good quality album that I can show off some of my 8.5x11 prints with. It doesn't have to be anything fancy, just decent quality and somewhat sturdy. I would love to get some feedback as to brands and/or features to look for/avoid.

I'm looking to pick one up at the local art supply store, so hopefully nothing too exotic. I'm not sure what these things cost but I'm hoping to keep it under $40 for something that holds about 10 photos.

Any help much appreciated!

    Recently discovered that "Scrapbooking" albums are 12 X 12. There is a wall-full of them at my local "Michael's" craft store. Prices are reasonable and lots of extras available.

    I use a ArtProfolio Brand Itoya storage/display book 13"x 19". It has 25 pages, so will hold 50 12x18 prints. I have actually now filled one and started filling a second. I am now going to have seperate ones for Sports, Weddings, Landscape/Art.

    They have 9x12's. See this site www.jerrysartarama.com

    "A photo is like a hamburger. You can get one from McDonalds for $1, one from Chili's for $5, or one from Ruth's Chris for $15. You usually get what you pay for, but don't expect a Ruth's Chris burger at a McDonalds price, if you want that, go cook it yourself." - me
