Step 4So, what goes in the book?
It's really up to you...
If you are filling in the book by hand, I would do so after cutting it out and folding it up. You'll have to spread it back out again, but you will have a much-clearer picture of what needs to go where.
Alternatively, because the templates are jpeg files, you can use the image-manipulation software of your choice to add whatever you want to the pages - just be aware of which areas will be visible and which will be hidden.
...but I recommend...
Something brief. Bold. Arty.
It could be a message for a loved one, or a "first book" for an adult to read with a pre-schooler, or revision notes you prepare for a child taking a test.
You could use it as a way to pack up a longer image - an image to hang on the wall, or a long game-board if you are a game designer.
The templates as the stand are only five pages long, but you can make the book as long as you want, either by re-drawing the template, or by printing off several copies of the same short version and gluing them together.
Whatever you do with it, let us see - take a picture of your finished book and add it to the comments. If you manipulate the jpeg files, you can add those to the comments as well, and other people can make their own copies of your book.
We could make our own mini-library...

I really enjoyed the video. Very clever and clear presentation. I'm thinking it would make a great card to send my sister with sentiments about why her friendship means so much to me. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge with others.
