Hi there. I was wondering if the book had to be finished? I am working on my wedding album but it is from the engagement to the honeymoon so it’s quite large and not completed. Thank you
Hi Jessica. Yes, your book needs to be complete to qualify. But there’s time to finish it up!
i hit “submit” and an error came up…is there anyway to see if my submission went through?! thanks!!!!
Hey Rachel! Please resubmit as I do not see your entry. Thanks!
I just resubmitted! Thanks!!

Hey Amy! Please resubmit your book. A confirmation must be received. Thanks!
Hi, Can I submit more than one book? Thanks, Kim
Hey Kim! You can submit as many books as you’d like!
I made a book a couple of years ago-first one I ever made- that I would like to submit. However, I am on a different computer now and the book is not in my library, even though I’m using the same account. Is there any way to electronically retrieve that book?
Stephanie, please check in with our Live Chat Support Team and they can help you. You can start a live chat here: http://bit.ly/pl12L3
Can I also get a confirmation that you received my book? I would really appreciate it.
I submitted my book early today, but was confused about how to publish it to the web. I shared it on Facebook, and then sent you the link in my submission form. DId that work? Best,
Erin
Hey Erin! Your book was received.
What if I don’t have Facebook & don’t care to have it does that mean I will not know who the winners are?
Hey Anon! All updates will be announced on our Facebook page. But if you aren’t a member of Facebook, we suggest you stalk our blog from February 1st through February 15th.
Darn it!! I forgot to add something to my notes section of my entry. The photos were taken by 2 of my teammates and our minster was one of my teammates as well!
Oh, and I did the same FaceBook thing as a previous contestant. Would you be able to confirm receipt of my link entry? All the best, Cyn
I just read about receiving a confirmation so I am going to resubmit since I didn’t get a confirmation! Thanks!
Hi Cynthia! Your book was received. Thanks!
Hi Becca! Just looking for confirmation that you received my entry.
Thanks.
Michelle, your book was received. Good luck!
Are the books going to be shared publicly everywhere?
Can Canadians enter? Please say we can because I have already submitted and am excited about it!
yes, Canadians can enter…good luck, Melanie
Thanks for answering this, Cathy!
Hi Becca, I just sent my book! Making sure you got it! I guess the confirmation is sent to my email?? : ))
Hey Heidi. After you submit your book, you should be redirected to a confirmation page. If that happened, we received your book. If not, please resubmit. Thanks and Good Luck!
Hi I have a question, what is the easiest way to get the link to share your book? I also have a similar question that was already asked but not answered, will the book be shared publicly?
Hey Andrea! Follow the steps on the FAQs page to share your book. Here’s a link: http://blog.picaboo.com/2012/01/two-weeks-of-love-faqs/ Books will be shared on our blog.
Hi Becca, if a book is selected, will you show a public link to the whole book, or will it just be an excerpt of certain pages? I’m wondering partly because my book includes some of my friends’ children and I don’t know if they would want their babies’ pictures and names posted publicly. Also, if some of the information in the book is personal (names/contact information, or just sensitive details), would that be edited out? Thanks! Great idea!
Hey Valerie! Great question. We may show the whole book or just a couple of spreads. It depends on the book. But if there is personal info in the book like names and contact information, that will not be shared on our blog. Thanks!
Did you get my entry?
Hi Becca,
I submitted my entry last night. I am wondering if it was received. I did not get a reponse from you and the note that I sent to confirm my submission is nowhere to be found in this thread. This is such an exciting contest and I sure don’t want to miss it. Could you please check? Thanks.
Maria, your book was received. Good luck.
Hi Becca,
I submitted two wedding books. I hope they were received. Thanks for the great contest.
Good luck, Barry!
I just submitted my book. Is the VISA $500 giftcard only good for travel to and from the cruise? Thanks, Hardee
Hey Hardee. You can use the Gift Card for whatever you’d like.
Hi
did you receive my entry?
Hi ! What a GREAT idea ! How can I know if you received my book ?
Thanks
Emilie
I asked a couple of days ago if you received my books. Maybe I got lost in the others because you answered those around me, but not mine. Bummer. But that’s ok, I will ask again. I sent 3 book entries, I wanted to make sure you got mine because I would love to be one of the winners.
Thank you!!
I love this Valentine themed book! It was especially made for this Valentine contest. It highlights what is possible with Picaboo X features and how amazing this program is if you think outside the box. The entire book is made with the pink backgrounds offered by Picaboo. The challenge to this book was that all but one background could not be used as an image (where you can remove the border or custom color your border). I would really love to win a cruise, or anything for that matter! My husband is in real estate sales and no need to mention how that market has been lately. This would be a real blessing to us!
oops! I did it wrong – left a comment and I was trying to submit my book!! sorry – you can delete these comments. Let me try again!
I submitted a book to the contest, but when I was looking over my book from the link in my email, several of the pictures were showing upside down. Of course, they weren’t like this when I had my book printed and they are not like that when I view my book from the Picaboo library. What would have made this happen? Should I submit it again? I’m not sure if it will appear the same way when you look at it. Thanks for your time.
Hey Danelle! Don’t worry about resubmitting. If there is an issue with your book and it is chosen, we will contact you. Thanks!
Hello! I submitted my book, but never received a confirmation e-mail. Do I need to re-submit it?! Thanks!
Hey Sara. You do not receive a confirmation email. After you submit your book, you will be directed to a new page on the blog that confirms your submission and thanks you. Good luck!
Becca, Dahlin’…did u receive my submission…sent it in on the 18th or 19th , i think…not sure if it submitted
this is an amazing contest btw…luv picaboo, luv the great community of picaboo’ers (as i call all the great fb picaboo fans) and luv ur blog..
I sent in 3 vacation books, but I did not receive a conformation email. Can you please check to see if you received them? Thanks! LD
I submitted 3 books and did not get any conformation. Can you please let me know if you received them?
Your books have been received. Good luck.

Your book was received. Good luck!
I don’t mean to be bugging you, but I really am excited about this contest as well. I have asked a couple of times in the last few days for confirmation like the others. Somehow I am being overlooked. Is it because you didn’t get my 3 books, perhaps? Thanks, Becca, for checking into it. I appreciate it!
Hey Renee. Your books were received. Good luck!
I am thrilled about this competition!!! Such a fun, lovely idea. Has my book been received?

Do you have to be an American citizen? Maybe I overlooked that bit of information, but I couldn’t find it.
Hey Lana! You do not need to be a US citizen to win. However, prizes can only be shipped to addresses in the US and Canada.
Hi Becca – like all the other contestants I just want to make sure you received my entries. I pasted two urls into the box as I am submitting a 2-volume entry – they work best together…. hope this okay… let me know if I need to resubmit – Thanks! I bet it will lots of fun to look at all the entries but hard to choose the winners!
Hey Melody. Please resubmit your books, one at a time. This way, we’ll be able to read the URL. And you’re right. Looking at everyone’s books has been a BLAST! The books we’ve seen, the pictures you guys have taken, there are so many AMAZING books out there! This is going to be a stiff competition!
Thanks for the quick reply Becca – I just submitted the two volumes so if you have a chance can you let me know if you received them – thanks for this opportunity! It will be fun to see the winning entries. Melody
Hi Becca – I forgot to put my name/email in my last response – just wanted to make sure you have received both of the books – thanks! Melody
I still haven’t heard anything. I sent in to books I just wanted to make sure you received them?
Hey Kelly. Your books were received. Good luck.
Hi, Becca,

Thanks,
Sara
