Papercraft boxes?

The members of my forum have a small gift exchange each year, and last year I made sets of gift tags using the forum's custom artwork that went over really well. This year I was thinking it would be cute to also offer a download of a papercraft box they could print out and assemble, with the artwork already printed on it. Are there any templates for such a thing available that I can just add my forum's artwork to and save? Preferably not as pdfs, I haven't figured out how to edit those yet :frown: Thanks!

Re: Papercraft boxes?

So far the ones I've turned up have either already had graphics or were pdfs, but I'll try your suggestions for working with pdfs

Re: Papercraft boxes?

I guess the reason I still avoid pdfs is beecause I'm used to not having photoshop and not being able to edit them... and in the early days I couldn't even select text for copy and paste with them. (I don't know if that was just a limitation of my voice recognition software or if it was like that for everyone)
