Yearbook!!!?
This is a question to anyone who knows anything about yearbooks. I'm homeschooled and in 11th grade. I'm looking into making a yearbook as a means of practicing skills learned in photography, graphic design, and technology over the past few years. I plan to start a yearbook club for homeschoolers in my area as an alternative to the one that already exists. One that allows for a bit more creative freedom (individualized yearbooks instead of one standard book for everyone in the homeschool group). Does anyone know where to find page templates or can anyone reccomend a good program for this? I currently use GIMP 2.0 as I like things that are open source, but I've never used it for page layouts or uploaded photos to it. I also don't have the money for a digital camera, but am able to get photos on disk very easily. Any tips?
Try outsourcing specific tasks (printing, design) to another company.
I know that my public school uses Jostens.
Try purchasing a tablet for border designs, if you can't purchase a digital camera, see if you can borrow one or use a camera phone.
Use a program like Google's free Picasa http://www.google.com/picasa/
to manage the photos.
Microsoft Office Publisher is great a laying out pages.
Why are Most Digital Photos Boring?
