Good Yearbook Themes?

[Unregistered]

I am the teacher advisor for our school's yearbook. We worked with Jostens in the past. In answer to your question, about templates, USE THEM!! Most people don't have the experience or knowledge about design to make their own templates. If you want to be a bit creative, I know with Jostens, you can play with the templates to make them your own, but for the most part, you should stick with them. You'll just end up spending more time on pages if you try to create your own templates from scratch & as you probably know, putting together a good yearbook takes a lot of time. As for the theme, everyone here has such great ideas! But really, the theme should reflect your school and maybe you should be talking to other students at your school for ideas.

i am on staff and just became editor of my school's yearbook. and last year our theme was: define us; we are! for the ppl pages our division said: WE ARE UNITED. and to tie in each pages our page numbers were thumbprints. aand our titles and subtitles were definitions

my school tends to make our own, or we take a pre made layout and then adjust it, just so it seems more personal

I think a good idea would be that you should have one htat has jokes all over it. Like use this one. Wanna hear a dirty joke? A horse rolled in mud. BAHHAHAHAHAH. It's funny because the horse is getting dirty and it's called a dirty joke

My school uses Jostons, we designed our own pages and it turned out great. The thing that tied our book all together was that the editors put colour and shape restrictions. By limiting things it harmonized our book (ie all the corners of boxes were rounded we used 4 colours and the font was the same size for titles and copy)

I will be our yearbook editor next year also and this year we used the theme "Perspective" and how when you look at something there is more than one way to understand it. We also designed all of our pages/sections but we are a small school so we have the time to do that.
