Using Smilebox for Fun and Profit

Smilebox offers a creative way for you to share your stories with friends and family using your photos, videos and music. You can drag-and-drop photos and videos from your digital camera into hundreds of professionally designed slideshows, scrapbooks, greetings, postcards and photobooks and personalize with their own words, music and style. You can email your creations, print or post them to a web site or your blog.

With hundreds of pre-designed templates even the most novice of users can create scrapbooks, slideshows and postcards in a few minutes. With catagories such as travel, weddings, birthdays, seasonal events, keeping in touch and of course babies you can prepare, send and keep amazing recordings of your events.

The basic version of a Smilebox presentation is free! Simply download a small application to your computer and you are set. The Smilebox application will look for your photos and allow you to quickly select the ones you want to use. Next, select a design matching your occasion. Arrange the photos in the order you want and provide some witty text and then select some music to match the mood. A few moments later and you can send it, blog it or print it!

For an extra fee for each of your creations (around $.99 to $1.99) you can keep the design and attach your own music to your own creation! For $39.99 a year you have the run of the site. Make as many designs you want, use your images and music, it's awesome!

Sign up now and within a few minutes you can start a library of great memories to share with friends and families. Be sure to also send them to folks who don't show up to make the jealous and come the next time!

OK, now that's not really true (but it would be nice), you're not going to get rich with Smilebox. However, you can find a lot of things to do to make a little money on the side, including recommending Smilebox to your friends and on your website.

If you use your digital or video camera frequently at events try creating the following for a small fee.

-A highlight reel from your Christmas, office (that could be hazardness though), sports team, family or other party.
-Still image or video invitations to dozens of events.
-A memorial of graduations, sporting events, trips, holidays, birthdays, weddings you name it.
-Seasonal events like Halloween, Easter, the Fourth of July and yes even Presidents Day.
-Send the creations to your friends, parents, children, grandparents and if need be your ex.
