In the Designer, navigate to the left-side menu and click on Elements, then select Shapes. You will see several options for placeholder photo shapes. The options that include a grey “Drop Photo Here” box are the placeholder photo frames you can use to create beautiful custom page layouts, even if you don't have all of your photos uploaded yet! 

Once you've scrolled through all of the available options, you can left-click on the photo frame that you like and then left-click on the page to place it. Select the frame and use the corner buttons and rotation tool to adjust as needed. 

What is a Drop Photo Box?

A Drop Photo Box is a frame element you can insert into your yearbook pages. It acts as a placeholder where you can easily drag and drop photos you'd like to include in your layout. This tool helps keep your design organized and ensures consistent photo placement throughout the book.
