Bad luck w/my book

I am in the works of making my husband a book for fathers day. Since Friday I have been trying to get pictures scanned and uploaded. I just wen through a bunch of disks uploaded them to Photo Book designer well I saved them and had to close my program out and of course guess what didnt save?!?! Yup my photos I had just uploaded. Then I have some pictures that are old and not on disks so I though sine my laptop is not connected to my mothers scanner I will just email them from the scanner to me set up the account do all that well the photos are scanned but when it time to email they are not attaching. I am fed up! My hubby is going to connect to laptop to to the scanner/printer/fax machine so I do have that issue. I just feel like anything that can go wrong on this book is going wrong. Anyone have bad luck trying to get a book done like I am?

I never had this problem with a book, because I never really finished it. But sometimes I have this problem with things I design, or paper crafts. By the way, sometimes my photoshop don´t save my work too...

Laura, I don't know your budget but often Groupon or any of these other programs have deal for scanning old photos. I had about 1000, my husband and mine together. I came across a coupon to scan a max of 1000 photos for $29. I jumped at it. It has always been on my to do list to e ER scan our old childhood photos or these we had in a photo book. It was scary to send the photos away in a box but it worked out great. I now have them all on CD and had some extra CD's made for my daughter so she would also have a copy of our old photos.

You can choose to have them optimized but I choose not to. I can do that myself. I transferred all the photos to my scrap EHD so I have it all in one place. Really those $29 was the best deal ever!
What is the software you use to make a photo book? Or is it online like shutterfly?

I have to look I got it from groupon a few weeks ago. I like it I just issues with things going my way with this book

Did not know shutterfly offered this service but extremely excited to find out about it. thank you!
