I don't know the difference between hybrid and digital??? I like the idea of doing some of the stuff online but I don't have a 12 by 12 printer and would have to start doing 81/2 by 11, I would like a brief explanation and want to know if I can do it with an 81/2 by 11 printer?
I recently saw somewhere a place to down load a simple new digital system for the computer but can't remember where I saw it so I can download it??? Anyway I will spend the majority of the evening looking for it when I get home, bout to go out to dinner with a friend!
Any Help would be appreciated!

Let me see if I can explain it...
Hybrid = mixing digital and traditional paper techniques together.
This could be as simple as printing out computer journaling to add to a paper page! Or it could go the reverse way. You could create a fabulous painted background with real paint and paper, scan it in and then use it as part of a digital page. Hybrid is any mixture of the paper and digi - no matter how much!
Digital = using only digital elements on a page.
I don't have a 12x12 printer and I do lots of hybrid and digital stuff. You can print 12x12 pages at 8x8 or you can send them out to be printed. As for hybrid, you can do lots of stuff with and 8.5x11 printer. This is a hybrid layout:
The journaling was created on the computer and the snowflakes are digital brushes that I printed on transparencies.
Hope that helps!

Oh, I forgot to say, I'm not sure what the simple digital system is that you're talking about, so I can't help you there...but I use Photoshop and while it's not simple, it's very cool and there are a million tutorials and classes out there about using it!

Don't forget that you can also get your pages printed at a store (especially if you're printer is not really high quality) on photo paper or regular paper. Some stores do pages a little bigger than a 12x12 but you could just fill the bottom with wallet sizes pics and cut them off so there is no wasted space. Also, there are the albums you can have made which look really nice.
