Starting To Layout My Book

I decided to use the printing company Bonus Print as they offered an option for the pages to be flat lay. They also had a week turn around. I thought this was good if I needed to reprint.

PLAYING AROUND WITH LAYOUT 
I first started of by playing around with the layout and working out where I wanted my images to be and what images I wanted where. I also wanted to work out which images I wanted to be double spread.
I started off by using the online making tool Bonus Print off. Below is a few page layouts I tried when working out how to use the programme.

I tried using coloured pages with images shown above however. I felt it didn't work it would be nicer to just keep the blank pages black and white. I also found out on the online book maker you could only use Jpegs so when I stretched the image to make it a double spread the image quality was appalling. I started to worry and thought maybe this wasn't a good website to use. I researched some more about the company and found out if you down loaded their programme onto your computer you could upload tiff files onto that so I downloaded and started from the beginning laying out my images.
