23 years ago

I'm looking for some links to good examples, and good instructions for online scrapbooks or photo albums.

Thanks in advance to all!

The dmarie site has a "layout central" that you can log in and visit. You can also look up past layouts by topic. They also have a poem and saying section. I like to look at everyone's layouts, too :-)

Hi Tygerr,

I used to design websites and did a few photo albums in my time. You may want to invest a few bucks in a program called Thumbs Plus ( www.cerious.com ) I belive and maybe even another called SuperJPG Thumbs Plus will make a nice and easy to use thumbnail gallery and save you hours and maybe even days of hard work and superjpg can do batch resizing of images to reduce download time of site visitors. Also it helps to have a good fundemental understanding of basic HTML. If you need live online help try going online on IRC (internet relay chat) and looking for HTML help channels. A lot of good experienced designers are more than willing to help.

Good luck :)

YAY! Thanks guys! I just love looking at pictures. Hopefully someday mine will be half as pretty! I love the shots taken from further back, where you can see the whole plant, not just one bloom. Flowerfan, some of yours are huge! Is that just one clematis? How old are they? Buyorsell, I didn't know that Asao sometimes double bloomed like that? Or were my eyes playing tricks on me? Your homemade trellis are gorgeous. That "wall of blooms" pic was so beautiful! I can't wait for blooms. (Miguel will tease me for my impatience, but I can't help it!)

Okay, I'm back...here ya go: www.scrapbookcanada.com www.scrapbookersparadise.com The site for Scrapbook Canada is undergoing some construction, but they are very good to email you back to let you know if they carry what you are looking for. I will post the link to my favourite one below. They are sometimes a bit slow, but I have found that they send you a little something extra if you have to wait too long. Good Luck!! ~Mar~ Here is a link that might be useful: Remember Me Scrapbooking

My favorite is Scrapbooks.com. Click on the KMA outlet icon and that will lead you to their on-site catalog. Also try typing Scrapbooking into your search and it will also give you a large list. I also bought various scrapbooking magazines and they have sites listed as well. Also e-bay has a listing of stores. I tried to paste in my whole list of sites, but it wouldn't work. I started my scrapbooking with CM (*reative *emories). They are a great source of information and most of the consultants are very helpful. The supplies can be expensive, but I believe it is the best place to start and then view the websites to buy supplies based on how you want your albums to look. I still use both, but the CM tools and things are still the best on the market. If you do not have a consultant near you, e-bay has CM supplies. Check the CM site though, you can locate a consultant that way. Current has a division just for scrapbook supplies called Times to Cherish. They have great paper, stickers and tools. Joann Etc also has an on-line site. Michael's does not sell on line, but you can look at what they carry. Good luck, you will really enjoy this hobby. Carol

Scrapbook vs. photo album

Casey, I know how you feel (although I am not as organized as you and my photos are not all in albums). I've really only started scraping and love it. Once you get started, you may feel that you would rather have everything in a scrapbook. You don't have to crop everything (although I seem to be a big cropper...probably cause I take lousy photos) and can use the entire photo in your scrapebook. Do you have duplicates of (or the negatives for) your photos? I have an old habit of getting dups of all my photos so I wouldn't have to worry about "give aways." If you don't have dups, just the negatives, once you decide which photos you want to scrape you can have duplicates made and use those in your scrapbook. This way you can have the best of both worlds and not worry about it! I still cringe everythime I crop, but I generally have dups and if not, I have one made. It costs to have them made but I feel better knowing I have a copy of the "whole photo" somewhere..even if it's not in an album. Sorry this is so long...hope it helps. Karen

I'm not sure if I understand your question. Are you looking to start up an online scrapbook album? If so, check out www.photopoint.com -- it's the one that I use. You just scan your layouts (I save them as .jpg but I forget which other ones are acceptable for photopoint), email them to photopoint and they place them in your online scrapbook for you. From there, you can create albums and even play with the image a little. Quite simple to use and manage as a user and simple to view as guest.

Hope that helps.
