I'm working on making the "daddy" album as a present for DH and just noticed that it is 11 inches in size. How can I resize all the pages proportionally so that it is only 10 inches max? I haven't been able to get ink for my home printer lately and I don't know if I will be able to before fathers day, adn the only photo place on base doesn't do prints larger than 8x10

Jennifer- You could try resizing all the pages the same in photoshop. I'm not sure how elements works but in photoshop you should be able to do this consistantely with each page.
Open a new project in 10wx8h with either a trans. or white background. Now open your largest page (that being the back of the album right?). Copy and paste it onto your 10x8 page. Now click on the corner of your image so the size adjustment thing shows up at the top (there should be height and width adjustments) Click on the little ratio button (looks like a little figure 8). Now click on the corner of your image and drag it in to fit the 10". It should keep it in proper ratio. Now take note of the percentage it says in the adjustment bar/menu thing for width and height. Click save as and proceed to save that particular page.
Start the same process with the next page only this time when you adjust, instead of dragging the corner in just type in the percentage of adjustment.
Do this with each page. That way they will all be adjusted the same.

I hope that works for you and I hope I wasn't too confusing. I'm just horrible at explaining thing plus I haven't had my coffee yet.
