Hey guys: So, I'm on my last day to get five years of free photobooks from Chatbooks, but I need two more people to order their own totally free (including free shipping) books by tonight! Unfortunately, some of my friends started but never actually ordered, so they don't count. :( free photobook

for more info:

  1. Install app on iPhone or Android
  2. Create new book -> photo book series
  3. Add a source -> camera photos Books are 6"x6"; 1 photo per page; 60 pages You can turn on/off dates, location, and captions on each page, and you can insert text-only pages instead of a picture. I highly recommend using the option to select photos from your device camera; you can also link up with Facebook or Instagram, but only the first book is free so be careful.

Does anyone else here make photobooks? What are you favorite sites/programs/etc to use? I love making photobooks for various things. I make a lot with Shutterfly to give as gifts (every time they have a free book offer, lol). For more complicated ones, I use Blurb with their Adobe InDesign plugin. Finally, I'm trying out Chatbooks for quick, cheap, books made on my smartphone. I don't super love the trend of having all landscape or square books. I wish there was somewhere I could make a 8.5x11 (or maybe slightly larger at 9x10) book in portrait mode. Blurb is the best I've seen so far with 8x10, but I feel like that's a tad small. I'd love to hear suggestions. [font=8pt]By the way, if you want a free book, I have Shutterfly and Chatbook codes for new members only.[/font]

I'm not too familiar with photobooks. Do you make them as blank sketchbooks? Or do you put content in them? I'm curious, it sounds fun!

They look like regular printed books with your own photos in them. I usually put my photos & the journaling in them and then print them like that, but occasionally I'll just print the pictures and handwrite any notes / journaling on them. They're a lot of fun!
