Hi,

   Interesting program ;)
   My initial reaction is that why do we need a druid to do the 
configuration?
I can see some druid screens are pretty empty. It may be better just to 
have a page to fit in
the necessary configuration data, and then a preview option to look at 
the actual layout
before hitting print. Then, the user can go back thro and fro between 
the two dialogs until
he/she is happy and then click on print! Whala, here you go.
   Are you writing this as a little standalone program?
Another nice idea is that if your image screen can accept drag and drop 
of images from Nautilus,
instead of going through file selection box would be cool.
