Photo Albums

[sjlarue]

Today I am a beginner because I am trying to put together a Photo Album and not getting very far. What is my problem?

1) When I clicked on the Adobe Help link I was told .."no results.."

2) I can't believe that I can't choose a layout that handles three or four pictures per page. I can't find anything between 2 and 16.

My four books about Elements 5 either ignore the subject or tell me how easy it is.

:confused:

I made the page below. Is that something like what you are trying to do?

If so, I'd be happy to tell you how I did it.

Yes. Yes! Yes!! This is what I want for my Photo Book. I'd really like to know how you did such a good job on the page with the couple, the one of Kim, Donna and Corky and the colby's three children. How do we do this? Through the forum? If you want to send me a seperate email, is that possible?

Russ, If you didn't get the Quick Reply that I sent, this is to let you know that you have created the pages for your photo book with a layout I'd like to know about. Please share!

Thanks,

Wonderful collage--particularly the arm that extends into the second photo!

After reading your instructions, I am thinking that what I am going to have to do is create a single image using any and all photos I want for a particular page of the Photo Album. Then I can select this photo as a one-picture layout. The layouts for PSE5 are quite limited. There are three for 1 picture, 1 for 2 and then it skips to a 16-photo page and a 19-photo page.
