Creating a Memory Collections Flush Mount album

Obtain a quotation from OPUSalbums.com.   When you have decided what album etc you want and have prepared an order we will put you in touch with Memory Collections (We may do so earlier if there are technical questions).

 First decide on the page dimensions.

Lay out your pages.  both OPUSalbums.com and Memory Collections recommend that you work with dg Foto Art .  This is a fast and easy-to-use program providing artistically superior pages from professionally designed templates (250 in Essentia, 1700 in Gold – and even more with Galleria).  You can use either the template or a picture (lightened and blurred) as background and any number of foreground pictures which are drag-and-dropped into position and then can be cropped, edited, resized, skewed (Gold), flipped etc to provide a layout which will delight you and your client.

With dg Foto Art you should provide all the files on DVD – the photo files as well as the Dg Foto Art data files.  If you do not use Dg Foto Art then you should provide page image files.

Images should be 18mb saved as SRGB, JPEG, 300dpi non compressed files for the best results and highest quality.  Design your albums as a series of double page spreads.  Please ensure that your images are arranged (saved) in the correct sequence.  It is also advisable not to print with images too close to the edges (1cm recommended).   It is also important to be aware of where the fold comes.  Whist the album lays flat the fold is visible and should not therefore interfere with the subject matter.

Turnaround time is 10 days to 2 weeks.  It will be longer if you require printed or special covers.

If you require assistance, Memory Collections staff will be happy to assist you in any way. 

If you have any problems please feel free to come back to OPUSalbums.com.
