Thank you for a great video! Just a note for those who may be having issues downloading and uploading the template (which for some reason I am) you can go into Powerpoint, click on design, then select Slide Size, Chose custom Slide Size and then you can choose A4 portrait or whatever size you want.
Great Video. The advantage of Album Easy is that it is so much faster at churning out a lot of pages than word or ppt. If you want to really use your own artistic flair and design pages with a lot of customizations, then Album easy wont cut it, but for the sheer simplicity of creating many pages for stamps it is hard to beat as it auto-arranges all your boxes and text for you. There is a bit of a learning curve but it is not really that hard, and you can cut and paste from existing samples. The newer version of Album Easy also lets you embed images, so I find that I use it now to create digital albums of my stamps, which I store (less attractively, but safely) in stock books.
Enjoyed this video very much. Your pages make outstanding albums. For me at 77 yo, I am not computer/printer savvy enough to upgrade my collection, but I still enjoy seeing people like you pushing philately into the 21st Century. Please keep up the good work; people like myself appreciate it!
I loved your video. It came to solve one of my most important questions: what to use to make my album pages. I use PowerPoint almost daily to prepare the presentations for the Humanities classes I teach. But I'd never thought it would be the perfect solution for preparing my album pages. I was thinking about Word, but I'd rather prefer PowerPoint too. Thanks a lot for this great information. Greetings from Puerto Rico.
Thank you for a great and informative video, Michael! Your album pages really are beautiful and those binders are beautiful as well. It was nice to see that you use PowerPoint for laying out your pages and printing them. I will most probably go that route as well after seeing your video. You explained very well, and gave all the important information. PS: one can also remove the background using Powerpoint, but you probably know that. I guess it is easier and more accurate in Paint. Thanks again!
With this being a free version of powerpoint many options are not available but if you have the paid version then you can follow the steps on this video using that!
@@FeaturePhilately Sorry, I didn't keep in mind that you are using a free version. I indeed have a paid version. I am looking forward to starting with making my own pages! Thanks again for your video!!!!
Great video. I like the side by side paper comparison. I agree with you that the real effort is deciding how you want your pages to look. The tools are quick once you decide. 😊 I use albumEasy these days, but my first ever pages were made in Visio, Microsoft's former flowcharting too. I agree that Powerpoint has all you need, once you find the 5 or 6 commands that you'll use over and over.
Great video Micheal I have thousands of envelops of stamps laying around in plastic containers, and I've been trying to get the motivation for to try and get them organised, so after watching your video I think I'm going to have a go at it. I really like the way you have of explaining each part of the process. ...I have liked and scribed. Cheers for now.
Quite refreshing to see younger people like you sharing the unmatched joy of stamp collecting! I just subscribed to your channel.. and I really hope that you will make more videos in the near future! Very best wishes from Provence
Hello Very interesting your video, what I liked most indicate the type of paper to use and where you mention that it can be done with PowerPoint, do you have a video tutorial on how to do it?
Can you make a video to make a exhibit sheet with combination of stamps and cover and how to do add write up or Text side by side ...how to figure it out my cover measurement on Power point screen.for exam:a cover size is 4 inch by 7 inch. how to draw a box with that measurement..thanks
