Be consistent
Design is not just about decoration. It is also about building consistency between elements. This means element repetition, element alignment, similar element treatment and spacing. There are some tools FlipHTML5 provides to enhance consistency:
1.     Enable “copy” and “paste” options for the element repetition.
2.     Enable align options like “Left Align” and “Center Align” to keep element aligned.
3.     Make full use of the element property setting to customize elements with the same treatment (opacity, drop shadows, size and angle).
4.     Take advantage of the grid to ensure a consistent spacing between elements on one page.

Lay out One Spread at a Time

The easiest way to design an DIY photo album is to lay out one spread at a time. Make a left page and a right page relate to each other by content or style, and then you can create one spread which tells one mini story to help convey information. So what needs does the content on one spread should meet? As a matter of fact, only these photos, which were taken during the same moment and have the same tone, should be placed on one spread. Once you follow this rule, you can choose the right photos as fast as possible for each page and also ensures a beautiful logical layout for the album. In FlipHTML5’s Animation Editor, you can change the sequential order of pages to make different spreads. 

Hopefully these tips can guide you through the creation process to make a impressive DIY photo album.
