I made an Ibook as gifts for Xmas, from our Disney and SeaWorld trip in April, and they finally arrived - I am so pleased with them. It's nice to have a project turn out just as you want it to. It's such a fabulous way to use pictures and turn them into a keepsake and it's not any more expensive than printing off all the pics and putting them in a photo album! I'll post a couple of pics.

hey, that's really cool! what a great idea. and it's so much more durable than a photo album - I'm always worried about fingerprints on the pictures and stuff. great pics, too! :clap: :clap: :clap:
wow... i always thought of doing that but was afraid the outcome might not turn out great.. thanks for sharing this... they look great! i just might order one....
:hug:
What a cute pirate and a great idea

They look great and will make wonderful xmas gifts, those types of gifts are always the best!
Thanks for the lovely comments and I agree Tami, those gifts are the best kind. I'm more excited about these books than anything else I'm giving or I might be getting. I had to force myself to wrap them up, so I wouldn't keep looking at them LOL!
Kelly, I agree that it's such a great way to showcase pictures and our grandson can take it to school for show and tell and it's such a nice keepsake. Now I want to get together with my cousins (I only have 3) and try and pool our pictures and do a family one, back to our great grandparents, so there is a permanent record. I've always been a little crazy about geneology and old pictures and finding ways to use them, instead of having them in a box or drawer. It's a great way to keep grandparents' memories alive, too. I've got so many ideas now LOL!
Ming, I did mine on a Macbook, and had a little trouble because I wasn't used to using a Mac - it's my hubby's new laptop. I know there are lots of websites for PC's as well, but I had only seen the ones done on Macs, so I knew what the quality was like. They look like a professionally printed book and it really wasn't hard at all, just time consuming getting all the pictures together and edited.

Oh that is a marvelous book! Your pictures are wonderful. That is a fantastic Christmas present. I will have to look into these. Such a great idea!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Beth!

They are lovely Brenda! I did the same thing earlier this year, after our trip to Pagham with Stuart's grandson ... it's made a beautiful book and we love it! I also put one of our first holiday together, to give to Stuart as a Christmas present a couple of years ago ... they make lovely presents!
What a great idea. Carson will love seeing his adventure in his very own book.
Thanks Marlys and Paula! I agree with you Paula that they make the nicest gifts - something that will be a keepsake forever and it's a great way to mark "special" occasions, like weddings, as well. I am definitely going to make more.
