From the Transcript

Congratulations! Your images are now ready to upload and have printed into a high quality photo album. In this video I'll show you how to upload your images to AdoramaPix and create a beautiful photo album that will last forever. 

Begin by going to AdoramaPix.com and then click on Photo Books. Next click on Create Your Own Photo Book, then click on Customize and Create Your Book. Next when choosing a style, you'll choose Build My Own and then choose Select and Continue. Next choose a cover for your book. I'll choose the Semi-gloss Photo Cover. Scroll down and it’ll ask you for a size. Im going to choose Landscape for the 10x8 pages that I was creating and then click on 8x10. Next scroll down and choose your paper type. I'll choose Luster and then choose Upload Photos. My photos are all on my desktop so I am going to choose My Computer, and then Upload Photos, and then navigate to the place on my desktop where all my prints are stored which is in this JPEG folder. If you click on one of the images and press Ctrl A, thats Cmd A on a Mac. That will select all of the images, then you can choose Open. Next, choose Build my Book.

The first thing the software is asking for is the cover of your book. My cover is located all the way at the bottom. I named it Germany-Cover. So to add an image to their template, simply click and drag it over the template here in the center, then click Fit or Fill, then click Fill the Spread. Next I'll go over to the menu again and click on Hide Used. And then I'm going to make sure that my images are sorted Name A-Z, that way number one will be at the very top. 

The next page they're wanting for the template software is the end page and that one they are asking you to actually leave it blank. So I'm going to go ahead and go to pages one and two. This time I'll click and drag my first image over and just like before click Fit or Fill and then Fill the Spread. Then I'll go to the next page and I'll drag the second image over. Click Fit or Fill and Fill the Spread. Continue on like this adding the images from your image list here on the left.

The default number of pages in this software is twenty pages so if you want to add more you need to click on Add Spread. If you know you need a lot more pages you can enter the number of pages in here. I will add ten more pages and then click Add Spread and then those will be added. So I'll go back to the first blank one which is right here and I'll continue adding my pages to the software. When you get to the end, if you end up having too many extra pages, you can simply highlight over one or click on it, then click the Delete icon. And then at the end of your album, you should have the AdoramaPix End Page and that is standard.

So once you are finished, you'll see how much this album is going to cost and you click on Order. Now AdoramaPix will give you the chance to flip through your book and see all the pages and how nicely they look. It's also going to give you some warnings telling you there is elements in a trim area. And that simply means we filled every layout all the way to the edge. So you can just disregard those warnings. After reviewing your album click Add to Cart and then you can checkout. So thats how easy it is to order an album from AdoramaPix.
