How do I use my own photo as a background in my calendar?

You can drag and drop any photo (or other image of your choice) onto the background area of a picture page in your calendar to use it as the background.
- If you haven't already imported the image you want to use as a background, click the "Add Photos" button above the photo tray, on the left side of the program window.
- Select the image you want to import, and click"Upload".
- Drag and drop the image into the background area of your page.
Note: All calendars print with a white border around the outside of the photo area. Your background image will cover just the photo area.
