Hi Karen, since you tried very hard to get the pronunciation of 'Ravensburger' right: It is almost right. The 'a' is different. The name likely is inspired from the German city 'Ravensburg' (where the company is situated). If you type the name in google - translate while having chosen German as a language, it helps to listen to the pronunciation there. Or: the 'a' in kindergarten sounds similar to what it is in 'Raven...' I thought, this might be helpful, since the name is likely to be used by you again on this channel 🙂

I have been making custom puzzles from Shutterfly for many years. I usually make a 252 piece puzzle. I always use a collage of family photos which works out pretty well. Unfortunately, the quality of the puzzle is not great. A lot of the bits are bent, and the puzzle doesn’t lie flat. So I am very happy to hear that I can make custom puzzles from Ravensburger. I did not know that. I am excited to transfer my business over to them. By the way, you were definitely a super cute kid.

At my workplace we had a few custom puzzles made based on infrastructure diagrams of systems we work on. I know it's not as *cute* as family photos, but we did make sure to have a slight gradient in all the solid areas to make the puzzles easier to solve. The goal of the puzzles was for us to remember aspects of our systems as we build the puzzles.

When I saw the pic he chose my jaw dropped and we just giggled for 10 mins at his very great idea. It turned out to be fun though to separate the white with texture (my dress), plain white (car), and grayish white (the sky), as well as figuring out all the cobblestone pieces that all looked very similar 😂😂

The picture you chose for the 100 pieces puzzle is very good ! Not only were you cute as a baby, but the picture itself looks very professional. Perhaps it is the neat colour blocks and the framing/composition (there is just the right quantity of background foliage), I'm not an artist, but I couldn't help thinking it came from a catalogue. Maybe I watched Parks & Recreations too much, but I do think it would fit just right into a Parks and Recs catalogue. "Do you see how happy this child looks ? That's thanks to our brand new playgrounds !" I have never ordered a custom puzzle, and probably never will (I don't have particularly pretty photographs, I'd rather buy ordinary puzzles with professionally chosen pictures), but the advice you give on your channel did help me when I tried to get back to puzzling. I puzzled as a child, but kind of stopped as a teenager (maybe earlier), and thus never completed puzzles with more than 200-300 pieces. A few years ago, friends of mine who puzzle regularly offered me a 1000 pieces puzzle for my birthday, which I tried to complete, but it was just too hard (if anyone is curious, you can find the original image on Wikipedia, to illustrate the Santorini article, it is the "Sunset in the village of Oia" one, with the colours altered a little to make it easier). I kind of forgot about it, until KZitem suggested your channel a few months ago and I ended up watching a lot of your videos. It motivated me to try to get back to it, but more gradually. Thanks to your advice, I was able to pick a 1000 pieces puzzle with a much easier picture, and two 500 pieces with hard-ish pictures. I'm glad Ravensburger puzzles are good quality because they really dominate the market here (along with Nathan Puzzles, which was acquired by Ravensburger a couple decades ago, so they have a different approach in terms of choices of pictures and tend to favour larger puzzles (1500, 2000, 3000 pieces), but they are probably identical in terms of manufacturing), it would have been harder to find another brand.

I am dying to tell you what a cute baby you were. Really glad Ravensburger sponsored this video. I had no idea they made custom puzzles - all the ones I've seen were printed at local souvenir shops and the quality is abysmal. A custom Ravensburger puzzle sounds like an awesome gift. You keep emphasizing "photopuzzles" so I wonder if non-photo images are an option. Personally I don't like photographs in puzzles. The background parts that are out of focus are difficult and annoying to me because my eyes already have trouble focusing. If there are crisp lines or consistent brush stroke textures, it's a lot nicer to put together. I would at least add a painting filter to photographs before submitting for print.

So i went ahead and recreated Grandma a puzzle, 4 photos into one, since noticed with first puzzle made for her kept chipping color and then one piece lost a siding of it... Used your Code for her new puzzle, mixed of 3 Christmas times and 1 Thanksgiving photo of the entire family.

I wonder if they have a Where's Waldo puzzle, you should probably do that. It'll probably be pretty difficult though and probably drive you crazy 😵💫

Your pictures were cute, Karen! I've made a handful of puzzles through Shutterfly. It'd be interesting to see the comparison between the two companies! I lean towards making them collages as well, though I did make one that was of one photo of my aunt's cat...who was white on a white couch. Took a bit of extra time to put that one together! lol!

I took into account your tips for a fun-to-do puzzle from an older video and made sure there were enough distinct colors and shapes and not too many areas of pure leaf or some other texture when choosing the image :]

I have received a collage puzzle of my child as a gift (not Ravensburger). It was quite difficult because there were too many pictures in the collage, all of the pictures were of the same person, and many of the pictures were about the same scale.

Great video. I’ve made photo puzzles in the past, but the one I gave my young granddaughter apparently was too difficult and the family said they never finished it. It was a picture they took on vacation and she was feeding a chipmunk … now I know there was too much green grass surrounding her. But it was cute!
