365/52 Chit Chat

[Sarah]

I have tried printing 12 x 12's and other digital LO's at my local stores here...but never had any really successes yet. The last order (xmas cards I scrapped) the colors were all wrong and they cut off edges, with the re-orders and stuff...I got frustrated and bought an e-All-in-One HP Officejet 7500 E910 printer, it does so much but the best feature that it prints 13 x 19 inches. It was a pretty good price. I love it. I just wait for 12x12 photo paper to go for buy 1 get one free and it like 1.50 - 2.00 a LO. Not bad!

I definitly like the idea of a bounded book. I think I might try this!

I have a version just under that I HP stuff.
One BIG suggestion: if the printer can handle XL size inks ... BUY THEM! ;)

I do have a silly question/s? Should/Could I use the month and year on each 365/52 layout or do you think it's redundant? I'm not very good at keeping things organized on my Hard drive so I miss placed the LO at least it's on the LO! I got a new Hard drive 2T and moving things over from 1T that I want to keep and trying to organize it.....ugh!...But It does feel like christmas all over again when I find something cool! I can`t believe one can accumalate so much stuff in 1 year......lol! Any suggestions on digital organization or a application that might help....

I organize my stuff in files. Example - I have a folder for GingerScraps and inside that folder, is individual folders for each designer. In the designers file, there are files of the kits (each file is the kit name). I'd do a screen shot but I'm at work. I'm sure each of us have a different way of organizing.

I do organize similar to Melissa (Shortcake), but there is also a blog post the GS blog about organizing scrapbook downloads that you may want to consider as well. Here

In addition to what the others have added about organization, I made another file for LOs I want to print...called "To Be Printed" I save the jpegs that are already resized to account for bleed and all I have to when ready to print is upload the folder. Once I order, I clear it and start over. I have the original LOs elsewhere in other files so I know I can come back to them if I need to.

What I do with my 365 LOs, is lable them by year, then week.... so my file names are like this: 2011_365_week_1, etc. That way, I have no problem finding them! I used to have my 365 in my GS folder, but I have since then moved it to my main scrapping folder. That way, if I decide to go and participate in other site's 365, I know just where to look!
