Don't try to deny it. Even if you say you don't want any attention on your birthday, you really do. You want everyone around to you treat you like the special person you are and celebrate the Day of Your Birth in grand style. (OK, maybe you don't want the servers at a local eatery to put a gigantic balloon hat on you as they sing and clap, but you know what we mean.) This year, drop a few hints about a way they can make you feel like you're the only person born on your birthday. Tell them about Inkubook.

Just give them the Inkubook web address and say something sweet like, "Isn't this the coolest thing?! Wouldn't it make a great birthday present?!" Leave old pictures of yourself out where they can be easily spotted. Casually work in reminiscences about funny things you've done or smart things you've said. It'll be impossible for them to not think, "I really should make a book about how wonderful Person X is." (It's also a great idea for you to return the favor by making a book about someone else, or if you want to make a birthday photo book for a child, check out our idea page for kids' birthdays.)

Inkubook is free to use—you pay only for printed books—so give it a try! Here's what you can expect:

• Simple and easy-to-use: The hardest part is deciding what photos to use. After that's done, just sign in, upload photos, and drag them onto the pages of your book.
• Professional quality: Make someone feel like a million bucks by giving them a book that looks like a million bucks. Our books are printed on 100 lb. archival-quality silk paper, and they're bound in covers just like you'd find on the shelf in your local bookstore (laminate for hardcover and 100 lb. silk cover stock for softcover).
• Affordably priced: Prices start at just $13.95 for a 20-page softcover book and $24.95 for a hardcover. It's almost impossible to find other gifts that will make someone feel this special for this little cost. Read more about our Styles & Pricing.
• Friends & family submissions: Everyone can get involved in this project. With Inkubook collaboration, one person needs to get the book started and others can upload pictures and stories to be used in the book.
• Fast printing and quick delivery: Check out our Printing and Shipping information to see just how fast it can be.
