Calendars

[glamy]

For the past 2 years I have been sending calendars I print myself to relatives. It makes a great present. Here is a link to a template for PS:http://www.trimoon.com/html/downloads.html
I feel bad not having done a donation yet...

Hey Glamy.

This is awesome, thanks. we just made up one to see how it would turn out but we got 8 x 6" photos printed and printed up the paper and then laminated all the sheets - with the idea of sending out a permanent pen with the calendar. It actually works out quite expensive doing it that way, what kind of places have you found that prints it fairly cheaply?

Thanks for the link also, this way seems much better.

Cheers,
Owen.

Also, how do you join the pages together? Just with a few staples?

Cheers.

Owen,
If you use PS you just print your pictures (after resizing) on the different layers matching the months. Actually you always drag your picture on the same layer which you clear after each print and use the months layers (visible/invisible) as you go.
I have a binding machine with plastic combs. I also make a cover, it looks good (all on A4).
Cheers,
Gerard

Gerard, thanks for posting this. I've been playing around with Elements to try to get the calendar I want but am not happy with the results. I'll try this one.
