Photo Book Update
I have hated having all these wonderful pictures of my family and no easy way to share them. I missed the photo albums I grew up with, and now have found an easy and relatively inexpensive way to make some.
I tried another book publishing company and love it…not that I had problems with the last try, this just has more options. My Publisher offers a down loadable program that has different styles of book templates. I chose the “Baby Boy” template and I was off. I loaded pictures I had of Tony and the Family. I was able to choose page layouts and add captions easily. It will also set up the book for you, if you don’t care what order the pictures go in. It took about 10 days from the time I uploaded and ordered the book until it was on my door step. It’s an awesome chance to get those pics off your computer and into a traditional photo book.
And, now, on their home page, you can buy one get one free. I made one for my folks, and the other will go to my sister. And, since the book is saved on my computer, I can easily make one for Tony’s other grandparents(It’s in the works, Mama Brown).
We did find out last night that the resolution needs to be pretty high on your photos. So if you are in the habit of using a lower resolution to save disc space on the camera, you may want to use the higher setting when you are taking pics for publishing.
The book looks awesome. I think this is a great idea, especially with mother’s day coming up…or just as a nice coffee table book.
