I'm thinking of making an album (or more) of my photos, just for my own enjoyment. However, I've never done one before and I don't want to make one now and end up hating it in a year's time.

Are there any general rules for albums? Maybe regarding white or black backgrounds, text, covers? Or about how one arranges pictures on opposing pages (similar shots? opposites?)? Or how one even selects shots that go into the album and groups them? I'd originally planned to make one album for each of my travels, but now that I have a few of them I'm thinking maybe grouping the pictures thematically as opposed to based on location might make more sense.

If it's for you, the only rule, if there is one, that applies is that you like the finished product.
