Hello friends! We are all producing some of our greatest images through this process and I think it would be great to display it all somehow! I have seen PS templates and albums for 365 projects but was wondering what all your wonderful minds have come up with! So please share how you have, or intend to share your 365 project with the outside world on something tangible!
Well, most of mine aren't worth displaying, but some of the ones that are will be printed out (most likely 8x10 size) and framed on the wall. I might even make a collage like the ones on this link when I have somewhere with more wall space. http://www.walldesignworld.com/2011/11/05/wall-collage-ideas/
I plan on printing a 100 page hardback book with Aperture. I'm thinking chronological order (to hopefully see how I progress over the 12 months). I've already started laying it out. At the end of the year I will pick one photo from each month for the main page of each chapter and pick my favorite photo of the year as the cover. Will be curious to see which photos I still like 10 months from now.
I did a calendar of last year's pictures (some pre-365) choosing one for each month. It didn't cover all of my shots, but it gave me a feel of it. Plus, my mother really liked one as a Christmas present.
I just save all my files into an album on my computer (one pic a day minimum like on here) and print them off sporadically and put them in a photo album with all the details I can think of about them. I didn't feel like it was the same just having the album stored on here electronically it is nice to have something tangible and to show family etc so they can see what you're up to.
I'm uploading mine to four separate sites on a daily basis and am building a site of my own which I'm using to store/showcase my images.
It's early days yet and it's pretty basic. At some point, I shall probably move the site to another provider where I can include scrolling from one image to the next and perhaps slideshows.

Since digital photos get cropped to hell when having them developed (especially as an 8x10), has anyone figured out a way to get all of your image in the print?
@jsw0109 Jeff, I don't live in the US so don't have first hand experience but I've heard good things about www.mpix.com. They seem to offer a large variety of sizes so you should not have to crop...
I think I might print a calendar next year with all of my most favourite pics :) will probably make good christmas pressie's too. I'll just have to figure out a way to choose.
@grecican you may need to do some post production cropping, but you can borrow my x-acto @aoignacio keep your eyes out on livingsocial/groupon places for a book coupon. I figured after a year of a photo a day I would splurge on showing off the work.
I am putting them into their own folder and plan on making a book either at the end or maybe 2 books with the year split in 2. got a free 20pg book coupon the other day and have done my first month and a half in that to see how it went and im way stoked will def put the rest a book or 2.
@tinatmmc wow, love that poster! i need to remember the name of that app!
II'll put my 365 pics in a hard covered book. I had great success already with Blurb so I'll likely use that. I like to layout my own pages but I want the pages to have a certain consistency with each other and Blurb works the best for that, at least from the 3 or 4 sites I tried.
