(or just use another non square template)<\/h6>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h6>Nit picking but it looks like in the calendar portion the whole block could stand to be moved up at least 1\/4&#8243;-3\/8&#8243; to not have so much white space under the spiral, and also get away from the hole punch. (maybe it was a mistake just on my orders)<\/h6>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h6>There are an extra two pages at the end; one white blank one, and one &#8220;print receipt&#8221;<\/h6>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h5>Other than that I&#8217;m not going to complain much about another neat affordable photo project I can give as keepsakes to friends and family.
