This site is wonderful. You can make your own photo books, cook books, collection of literature, whatever you want and this site also lets you look at other people's collections. Last fall, I went to Europe for 10 days to visit friends, and I made a book about it with this site. It came out great, and it's not that expensive, free to download the program, you just have to pay for the printing of the book. It may be time consuming, but very simple and fun. You can also use this site for a portfolio, it would be pretty interesting to make a book of all your art work.
