5. Now you have entered into our online book builder. Within the builder, you can add your photos, change the background of the page and use the features to design the book the way you want. (Note: Regardless of where you add photos, clip arts and background images from, please make sure you click the checkbox next to the message "I certify that I have the right to distribute content or pictures included in my book, and that they do not violate the Bookemon Membership Agreement. This indicates you have the right to use any images you are uploading.)
6. Periodically, you should save your work in progress by clicking the "Save " button. You may preview your book from time to time to see how it looks in print by clicking the "Preview" button. You may also share your book with friends at any time whether it is finished or not by using the "Share" button.
7. And when you are satisfied with your book and ready to get it published in print and online for yourself, friends or to the public, you can proceed to publish your book by clicking the "Publish" button.

Tags are like keywords or labels that you add to your creation to make it easier to find later. You can tag a book with phrases like "Mexico Adventures" or "Mexico, travel, adventure". Those looking for books about Mexico can just click that tag (Mexico) and get all books with that subject.

Deleting a Book

Please be aware that all of the associated files (including images you have added into the book) will be permanently removed once you activate Remove Book. So use this function with caution. In the case you decide not to delete your book, you can use Restore to bring it back to your active book list.
