I want to make a calendar for family members for christmas. I will be showing all the family birthdays and anniversaries with photos I have taken through the years. Does anyone know of a user friendly program or site where I can accomplish this? Would really like to keep it to under $20 per copy.

I've used both Mpix and Bay Photo. Bay Photo was clearly a higher quality product. Price depends on the style and size you use, but you should be able to get them less than $20 each. Bay Photo also has a discount for new users!

I have mine done at OfficeMax, great quality and only $7 a copy during their specials which start next Sunday, they will even do proof prints to make sure their printer matches your images and correct their process to make sure they do.

I have used family picture calendar program for years making them for family, friends, and customers. You can enter birthdates, anniversaries, death dates, and special occasions. You can check it out on Doug East' Family Picture Calendar home page. Excellent program and inexpensive.

Iphoto is easy, effective, and price competitive. I've used it for years and now my family 'expects' calendars at the holidays. IF you have a Mac it's already there and it works easly with your library. You can even use maps and all the dates (such as family birthdays) will automatically load. Really, it makes professional looking calendars.

I've used Walgreens and Shutterfly for years. I wait for discount offers and get great prices. All kinds of options for neat calendars. My family and friends look forward to my calendars every Christmas.

I've been making them for about 10 years now for my very large family approx 100 names. I have always used Calendar Creator Plus (www.broderbund.com/‎) . It's perfect with many options and cheap too. Insert pictures, notes names, many designs. Havn't found a better one yet...
One word of caution ...They will want one every year..
Have fun!

I have made calendars for my family for the past 4-5 years and have been extremely happy with Shutterfly. They have many different "themes" to choose from and I think the end-product is terrific. You can complete the calendar and then take advantage of a sale. Good luck!

Photoshop Elements does a pretty nice job.
