That was my big fear for my first one, but its actually not as bad as you think!
I'm at work so no pics But the title page (in other words your front page) has the topic of the book - maybe why you chose it. For my sign-in pages I made a pocket along the bottom of each page and on that (I think I remember
) I did my "rules" - the basic guidelines are set out on the sign-up, but some people like to specify handwritten or typed journalling, or how many pics/topics (like top 3 or something). I put WAY too many rules but luckily most people ignored them
as I'd changed my mind. In the pocket I had a number of tags - I used patterned paper, big enough for each person to put their details (DIS name, real name and location plus photo) on the back. Other poeple did other things - one had little flaps a bit like an advent calendar.
Thing is, its a book thats coming back to you so its not like a swap where other people have to "use" your things. So for me there's less stress - yes, I worried that my pages wouldn't be "good enough", but its just going to be in a book, unlike stuff which people might say "Yuck! I'll never use that! What was she thikjning of???" (I always worry poeple will say that about my stuff, but everyone is so kind I know they'd never tell me )
I'm sure others have pics so I'll get back to work now

as it can be a PITA to have to keep going to the PO.
