This is where we'll plan our next set of scrapbook pages. Ideas for names of teams, size of team (I am thinking 7), and any other inputs to be considered.

Once we work out the details we can get started on some more scrapbook pages -- and this time I'll play too. I have to get over my lack of creativity is all.

Are we going to start with a blank slate? Or will we each team get the same starter background and see what direction it goes?

Either way would be fun.

Gary -- I hadn't thought about it -- but both ways would prove interesting. Perhaps we can do a set without a defined background, then another with since we have time and space to work with them.

The only thing I would like to see is that everyone turns off Maximize for compatitbility -- it saves a lot in file size and would be better for everyone downloading and uploading.

What kind of backgrounds would you suggest?

Maybe background, maybe photo(s), maybe blank ... have to think about it.
I'm sure one of the creative types will come up with something brilliant. :D

Meanwhile back at the ranch we should be pouring over our photos to see what would make a background -- just in case someone wants to do it that way.

Maybe picking a Holiday or Event theme would help each team in working with a layout. e.g. Thanksgiving (USA), Fall Season, Christmas, Baby Announcement, Wedding, Anniversary, etc. Just and idea.

I am thinking that everyone should put in 1 picture in the team and you just work around that!!

I think 7-10 per team. Start with a common background. Pick a theme.

Spys should be shot.

On the Scrapbook sites, they often use colour themes in their weekly or monthly scrap challenges. Three to four colours are posted and you go from there.

Could also consider Vintage, Spring, Summer, Fall , Winter and Travel themes.

I have also noticed that a lot of the newer pages are rectangular in shape ...... say 8 x 10 or 10 x 8.

Wendy -- that wouldn't be fair to Thomas, he is the only teenager I know of on the site. But he is dynamic and might make up the difference. :lol:

Boy is this team brain storming or what!! I love it! Thomas, it's nice to hear a teenage boy still wants his mommy. :lol:

I think a Fall theme would be lovely, but then it is my favourite season. So many gorgeous colours and many picture opportunities, but it would probably have to get going pretty soon.
