Puja Lalwani
Stumped about the theme that your yearbook should be centered on this year? The yearbook themes list given here should be able to help you out of your dilemma. Take a look.
It's that time of the year again where all of you put your heads together to come up with unique, humorous but meaningful yearbook theme ideas, and make it the best yearbook that has ever been made. For this it is essential to first come up with a concept or a theme for your yearbook.
Then, gathering the necessary material to fit within that concept is essential. This would include important events in school, pictures describing it, things to write in a yearbook, such as certain catch phrases by students that became popular, quotes that describe the events you are featuring in the yearbook, etc.
What you must note in this entire description is that the look of your yearbook and all your other ideas revolve around a theme. The moment you decide on a theme, you will be able to come up with related wallpapers, layouts and covers.

Choosing a Yearbook Theme

Even if you have been given a huge list of themes, narrowing down on a theme from it is quite a difficult task. There are certain tips that should guide your choice of a theme, which have been enlisted here.
A yearbook obviously revolves around the events that took place in school that year. Which one was the best? What made it so memorable? Whatever it is, it could easily be transformed into a great theme for your yearbook.
Take everyone's opinion for the choice of a theme. You never know who may come up with a brilliant idea that you can use for the yearbook. Conducting a poll will do the trick. Ensure you give the person due credit for the idea.
Look at some of the previous yearbooks and see what they had to offer. Do you want to conform to the same guidelines or do you want to completely deviate from the usual? Either way, you have a clear path for yourself to decide on a theme.
Ensure that whatever theme you pick, it provides sufficient scope for creativity. Even if it has been inspired from previous yearbooks, you can do something to make this year's edition stand out.
Finally, keep in mind the general color theme and culture of the school. Ensure that your theme is in keeping with what the school believes in. Yes, creativity is essential, but disrespect is unacceptable.
