And I can vouch for the quality - I recently ordered a 'photobook' where you select the photos, layout, colour of the book etc and they print them for you so its like a proper book - really nice!

Am glad about that. Have just ordered one for MIL's 60th.

cookie54 - was that a big wall calendar or a slimline one? Does it look quite good?

You can make your own quite easily from this HP site...and the photos are uploaded not stuck in!

Hewlett Packard Calendars

(Also check out the Activity Centre for some other nice projects)

dorestmiss - I've thought about making one myself before but I'm not sure how well it could be put together (the binding etc)

Hi

I just use of of those plastic clippy binding things that just slide on, (sorry, don't know what they are called!), and that just cost a few pence. I clip the pages together at the top and then thread some posh string through it so's the calendar can be hung up.

Just a word of warning...the HP site uses American size paper which ain't quite the same as our A4....you can do a bit of juggling to get the print in the right place or (what I do), just buy bigger paper and trim it to the correct size with a trimmer thingy!

Have fun!

anyone used Create a Gift before?? They do an A6 Freestanding Desk Calendar for £6.99 with free delivery!! Seems a good offer compared to other sites (except Vistaprint which have had bad stuff written about them on this forum!!) Any help/info appreciated - thanks

I ordered a couple of desk ones from photobox when they were buy one get one free. I didnt think it looked that great actually. A bit plain and boring.
