1. Our software requires updated browsers, i.e. Chrome, Firefox 8, Internet Explorer 7.
2. Your work will auto save. Yay! No need to fret.
3. There is no undo option, but you can remove photos and edit text.  
4. To get started, select which photos will be in your book using your own photo software, i.e. Adobe Photoshop. Next save them in a new folder then upload that folder into our software. This is a significant time saver! You can also use photos directly from Flickr or Facebook.
5. Do not use punctuations within your spine lettering, the software will reject your order.
6. Discover the Icons and their meanings:
   • Life preserver = Help
   • Magnifying glass = Description
   • $ = Calculator

• “Drag and drop” your image onto cover
• Select image edit button- “the magic wand”
• Under “advanced” undo lock frame
• “Click and drag” frame to desired position
