Claim One:
1. A method for creating a photo album, comprising: receiving a plurality of images at a network-connected computing appliance; determining a subset of the plurality of images by one or more functions executing from a non-transitory physical medium on the computing appliance that are related according to data associated with individual ones of the images; dedicating the determined subset of images to a given page of the photo album being prepared by the computing appliance; placing the determined subset of images at a core aspect ratio (CAR) onto a physical print area of the given page of the photo album; analyzing a dimensional difference between the CAR and the physical print area of the given page of the photo album; determining from the dimensional difference a plurality of optimal positions for the determined subset of images on the physical print area; and arranging the determined subset of images on the physical print area based on the dimensional difference, wherein the core aspect ratio (CAR) comprises two or more output sizes corresponding to a given orientation of the given page, wherein any page having the given orientation does not require any editing of page content before printing in said corresponding two or more output sizes, and wherein the CAR is calculated so as to result in minimal loss of page content during printing of the photo album.
