How easy is it to create a WebBook?
SharedInk WebBooks have been built from the ground up to be as easy as possible to use. When making design decisions, our philosophy has always been "ease of use is more important than lots of features". However, the best way to see this is to simply try it out. Sign up for a free membership, and create a new WebBook and see for yourself just how easy it is.

Can I pick my own fonts? What about borders?
Yes, you can with our new "BookStyle" feature. Each BookStyle template consists of a collection of fonts and borders. You change the "look-and-feel" of your WebBook simply by choosing a BookStyle template, which is then automatically applied to all of the pages of your WebBook. Each type of WebBook will have its own set of professionally-designed "BookStyles" from which to choose.

How many photos can I add to a page? How many text blocks?
It all depends on the total number of page elements (photos and text blocks) on the page.

If there are no text blocks on the page, you may add up to 6 photos on the page. If there are text blocks on the page, then the number of photos that you may add will be less (and proportional to the number of text blocks).

If there are no photos on the page, you may add up to 4 text blocks. If you do add photos to the page, then this number will be less.

How do I delete a page in my WebBook?
You may delete pages in your book that you no longer want. To delete the page, go to that page in the book (select it from the Table of Contents or its Chapter listing), and then select Edit->Delete Page from the menubar. Please note that the "Delete Page" option will only be available if either: (a) you are the person that added it to the book, or (b) you are a Manager or the Owner of the book.

How do I rearrange the pages of my WebBook?
To change the order of the pages in a chapter, you first need to select the chapter whose pages you wish to reorder. Go to Contents, and then click the name of the Chapter you wish to reorder. Then select Edit->Reorder Pages from the menubar.

How do I invite a new member to my WebBook?
Please invite as many people as you wish to come visit (and even participate) in your online WebBook. Inviting them is easy -- just click the "Invite a new member" link on the left side of the page underneath "Unsure what to do next?"

How do I remove a member from my WebBook?

Is there any way to remove the titles at the top of each page?
Yes, you can choose to not have the page titles displayed. To disable the display of page titles (the default title is "Page x"), do the following:

1. Sign into your account and go to the Table of Contents for your WebBook
2. Go to the page whose title you wish to disable by clicking the page's entry in the Table of Contents.
3. From the menubar (the pale yellow area near the top of the page where it says CREATE, EDIT, SHARE, PUBLISH), move your mouse over the EDIT item and then select "Title" from the dropdown menu.
4. Check the "Hide Title?" checkbox and click the Save button.

Note that if you do want to keep the page titles, but change them to something else, you can also do that via this same procedure.
