Exploring Mixbook: An Overview of Features and Tools for Creating Lasting Memories

Photo books are special. So are the people who create and receive them. There’s something wonderful about the simple joy of turning photos into a powerful symbol of love and appreciation.

Whether you want to share the memories with friends and family or create a memento collection for your home, you need the best. Mixbook features and tools for memory creation can get you there.

Mixbook’s Editor: Intuitive and User Friendly

When life calls for simplicity, you want tools that offer an intuitive interface and user-friendly navigation. Let’s walk through the features you’ll see when exploring Mixbook’s capabilities for photo books.

Right from the main page, you can select the type of photo book you’re after. Birthday? Romance? Year in review? Once you click on the type, you’ll see templates broken into different celebrations and design themes. Pick your template or use a blank canvas. Then, get customizing!

Templates and Themes Make Sharing Memories Easy

Mixbook has all the templates and themes you need. For example, if you are capturing photos from a wedding, you’ll find the ultimate collection of wedding album templates to bring out the best memories from that magical day.

There are themes for all types of weddings, from bold and modern to rustic and botanical.

Maybe you’re designing a photo book for your travels across Europe. You’ll find themes for all vacation types, from a bit of Disney magic, right through to a Greek adventure.

If you’re designing a tribute photo book for your beloved grandparent, you can search Mixbook’s Remembrance theme for templates ranging from modern to soft watercolor to vintage black and white. Each theme brings you that much closer to creating a memory book that captures the important moments.

Sometimes you change your mind about a theme. Maybe the style isn’t working with your selected photos, or you’re unsure about the font or layout. Rather than continuing to customize the template to make it work, replace it! Hit the Theme icon at the top of the Mixbook Editor and pick one that sends the right message.

Advanced Customization Options

Although each template is a starting point, it’s never the only way to create your photo book. Enhancing photo books with Mixbook’s advanced tools lets you personalize the contents and make them special for you and those you love.

Mixbook’s Graphics Library

What advanced customization options will you find in the graphics library? Plenty. You can change the background, add a border frame, or layer themed stickers on individual pages.

Are you working on a graduation photo book? You’ll see perfectly tailored stickers like graduation caps, stars, and hearts. Prefer a different background color than the default? Select the Background icon.

And what if you want your photo to pop? You can add a border using the photo edit tool. Select Border and drag the slider until it reaches a width you love.

Don’t forget: You can always upload your own graphics and background images.

Personalizing the photo book is easy and fun, thanks to a user-friendly interface that keeps your options plentiful but organized.

Collaboration Features for Shared Memory Projects

Shared memory projects require everyone to have access to the photo book. Luckily, a few clicks are all that’s needed. Head to My Projects and hit Invite to collaborate. Once you add everyone’s email addresses, send the invite, and you’re done.

While you can’t have two people actively editing at the same time, everyone can sign in at different times to upload photos and personalize their creations.

Text, Captions, and Personalized Messages

If your photo book is for a niece’s or nephew’s graduation, you might select pre-designed phrases like Congrats, Cheers to the past four years, or Oh, the places you’ll go. If you’re more interested in custom text, you can upload your own or replace the themed captions to fit your collection. The style remains, but the sentiments are more personalized.

Or, use the Text tool to add custom phrases like Future doctor, Saving our earth, or UCLA, here I come! Our built-in features help as much or as little as you want. Once you add the text, you can change the font, size, position, and text box effect.

Whether acting as an overlay or accent for your high-quality photos, messages are one of the best personalization options on Mixbook for lasting memories.

Layout Options, Grids, and Alignment Tools for Precise Design

How the photos look on the page is as important as what they show. That’s why Mixbook gives you themed and page layout options. You can choose pre-designed layouts that match your chosen theme or opt for different formats for up to 30 photos on a page.

Hover over each layout to see how your photos appear. Mixbook’s built-in grid and alignment tools move the images according to the format, so you never need to worry about rotating or shifting pictures to fit more on a page.

Mixbook’s Printing and Ordering Process

Have you finished the photo book? Don’t forget to preview your hard work to ensure the style, colors, and layout meet your approval.

To print your photo book, hit Order in the upper right corner. You’ll receive a reminder prompt if you’ve left any blank pages, making it easy to return to your project to add more photos.

The ordering page also shows the book options if you haven’t selected the book size, cover, and page type. Happy with your choice? Hit Add to Cart and add your payment and shipping details. Then wait for your package to arrive!
