Trying to produce a brochure to illustrate a holiday bungalow and want to show photo's say 3x3inches about 6 or 8 with a small caption underneath each photo. Have tried to use power point and words but have lost my way, cannot seem to be able to manourver the photo's in position. Any tips would be so grateful, heres hoping!

What programs do you have available? [Office? Photoshop? Corel?] I do computer graphics and design for a living and have done brochures, too. There are certain programs I prefer to use over the "expected" ones: i.e. Illustrator (good program, though). Sometimes I use Word 2000, but find it to be full of glitches and hick-ups and you have to play around with it a lot when using photos. For single page brochures (single or double sided), I prefer to use Corel Draw. It's very user friendly and you can import various different photo files, etc. Has only a few annoying glitches, but after a bit of practice, you'll find it to be quite good. Use it a great deal with Adobe Photoshop to produce some pretty amazing results.

Also if you have a card printing program it might have the option for flyers and such. I have printmaster 11 and it has templates for 3 fold brochures and such and it works nice. It's not a pro type program but for what I had to do it was fine.
