Should have taken the time to work it out myself, one go didn't work so left it until now. Oh well, I should have realised I can work these things out myself lol

I have no patience! ;P

Thanks for the assistance though James.

never really had any grumbles, forms very easy. also, once you are listed with them anyone searching their site for a photographer you get notified by email should you wish to contact them..or you used to anyway...

There are a few more companies doing the rounds but they are still the best although they have worked had to make their prices compete better..
Thanks for this it's a great help. Did you use to put a limit to changes possible? What I mean is once you have designed the album, did you make free changes without an upper limit or once the initial design was made or where the couple charged for each and every change they make?

I've seen GraphiStudio charge £5 for each photo or page to be changed. Just wandering if this is pretty much a standard charge/cost across the board with other togs?

No I didn't realise the updates didn't work. I'm going to look at that now.

I'm on v4.0.3 at the moment. Time to update I think.

Do they release version change info to see what's been added or changed since the last version?

New 14:11 ratio Horizontal double-spread templates
More templates for ALL sizes
Pop Art templates, (Fun, Funky, Arty templates)
Font Art (New PG font Templates)
Poetic Art (Words and Poems, NOT cheesy! COOL stuff)
Old bugs and resizing issues fixed !
Vista & Leopard compatibility update
Added MORE album manufactures’ formats and sizes.

You will notice the file is still called PGv401 on the download link but it is 4.0.5.
The install is a bit of a pain, here is the way i done it.

1. You need to remove the 2 actions from photoshop for PG
2. Remove PG from your system.
3. reboot pc
4. Click the PG install file , make sure PS is open.
5. Once install i compleate install the 2 new PS actions
6. Copy the fonts from the PG folder to C:/windows/fonts

When you open PG you should see its the new version and it will use your original reg code that you dont need to re-enter.

here is the download link if you have lost it.

Wow I'm really impressed with those new templates it's bring a whole new dimension to the program. I'm really looking forward to designing an album now.

I'm going to dig out some previous wedding photos and create a sample album for fun.

My motivation is really starting to get into gear since the launch of this site.

aah...there goes a lesson i learnt very quickly, charge them for changes as we did and suddenly they were actually quite happy with the layout!
