That is true. It is a matter of balancing the two. In a way, that was one advantage of the older versions without thumbnails at all, but then, it had no thumbnails!

A bigger monitor typically will have a higher resolution, and a higher resolution will result in smaller display. That is why I purposefully use a lower resolution on my monitor when I record tutorials or hold classes. Then, in order to increase the size of the thumbnails, you can go to File > Preferences > General Program Preferences > Palettes and you can change the Palette Thumbnail size from the 50 pixels default to something else. You can also change the Tooltips Thumbnail to something large and that will give a bigger image when you hover over a layer.

Did you know that you can change the size of those thumbnails??

Do you have an outdoor area you like to sit and spend time? Is it a patio, a balcony, a deck? Show us pictures and let's chat.

That is an interesting point. I don't usually teach it, for a couple of reasons: you can have a preview that is visible, which is usually enough for me to know whether this is a frame, or a photo, or a paper I often use the OpenasLayer script, which will rename based on the file you opened, so some layers will automatically be renamed However, it could be useful, especially for those using older versions that don't have thumbnails in the Layers palette.

Things worked out yesterday as I had paused Cloudflare (caching/security). I have now re-enabled it. Let's see if it works. It might work if the site is "cached" on your computer, but it might not if you use a different page. Don't hesitate to post in this thread, and test. If something is really wrong and you can't post, see if you can send me a message or an email. Let's test some more.

They are not beaten yet. So far, things are working while I have my caching/security service on pause. I will keep it like that for a few more hours and re-enable it tonight or tomorrow and see. At least, it won't affect the Q&A for tomorrow!

I know I might sound like a broken record, but online backup can be a life-saver. I can't imagine how i would do if I lost everything about the Campus, the store, and all my supplies and photos. That peace of mind is definitely worth that $100/year. I wrote about it in here.

I didn't think there were Canada geese in Europe!

So far, so good. But will it be working on all threads? That has been my nightmare; sometimes it works, sometimes, it doesn't! Crossing fingers

And trying to respond.

With various issues with the forum, let's have a testing thread. If you post something or encounter something, this is the place, I guess.

Let's continue this new challenge. We might often be the ones taking pictures but we are not the feature of our layouts, so let's change that since we ARE important and we have lots to say. Every month or so, the layout will be about YOU, and a prompt will be given. If you have taken the Story Week Challenge, you will find some similarities but it won't be the same. For the June layout, tell us something about books. Do you have books that you like/dislike? or books that have been a big part of your life when you were young. Remember that if you want to create pages for previous prompts, those threads will stay open for you. There is no right or wrong order to share about you.

Things are moving along pretty well. The book is "done", although I am still waiting on proofreaders to catch all my typos and odd grammar syntax (remember that English is not my first language!). Then, I have to finalize a cover for it. If everything goes according to plans, it should be released this summer. Stay tuned!

Do you have photos of blooming shrubs, trees, or gardens? Share your pics! Also, when is that blooming happening in your area? Let's chat.

Our newest challenge will soon start. Are you in? Are you intimidated by vectors? Are you at a loss when you need to use them? The challenge will start on June 17th. This challenge will be FREE for everyone, so spread the word. Here is the link again: https://scrapbookcampus.com/workshops/vector Let us know when you are registered, and share your biggest challenge or fear about using Vectors. The workshop will be the same as offered last year, however, I plan on offering different extras for our DIAMOND members.

It happens to be occasionally too. I find tghat if I log in while in the forum, it is not always working. I rather go to the main page and log in. Sorry it happens to you too.

That is really good. For added realism, you can slightly rotate the individual screws. Once added to a project it will look quite good!

I the process of writing my book, currently, I needed to find the source of all the kits and the fonts I used in layouts made years ago. When I used the Open as Layer-Rename script, it would include the name of the file I used (whether it was a paper, a ribbon, a flower, etc.). This has saved me a lot of headaches in figuring out what kit was used. I also always keep a vector version of all the text, so when I reopen the layered file, if I have used a specific font that is not installed on my computer, I would get a popup telling me what is missing. And if the font is installed, I just have to double-click on the vector layer as if I wanted to edit the text, and it was immediately selected in the Text toolbar.

Do you want to challenge yourself to take photos every week for a year? Maybe you want to practice your photography skills, or just try to capture "ordinary" daily occurrences. Let's just encourage each other. This is a no-pressure thread, and you can share the photos you took or the theme you are going for (if you are going with a theme). And if you don't want to share the photos yet, and only showcase them once they are in a montage or a scrapbook page, you can just say that you did it. And it is ok to start your 52 weeks at any time. It does not have to start in January!

It is a new month and new projects. Show off what you are working on in June be it a scrapbook page, a collage, a tutorial, or anything else you want. We are curious and want to see, learn, and get inspired. These threads are quickly becoming a fantastic source of inspiration, support, and friendship. Keep them coming! Remember to size down your image to about 600x600 pixels and save it in .jpg format before posting it (if you are creating a double page, you can resize it to 1000 pixels in width if you don't want to post the pages separately). Here are a few guidelines for everyone: when you post a project, give as much information on your sources or techniques used. It will help others who are curious and would like to do the same. if someone uses something that you like on their page, ask where they got it. Sometimes, you can go get it too and it will be better quality than trying to extract it (as it would have been resized to post in the forum anyway). if it is something that they did from scratch, ask how they did it. It would be so helpful to everyone! if you like a photo and would like to “play with it”, ALWAYS ask permission. Sometimes, there are some limitations and the person is not allowed to let others use it. Don’t get them in trouble. Usually, people are happy to say yes (if they can) when you ask politely. And if you get permission, you might get a better-quality image than the resized image anyway.

In June, our monthly theme is FRUITS. With summer arriving (for the northern hemisphere), it could be time for refreshing serving of fruits, whether local or exotic. Let's find various fruits, fruit parts, fruit harvesting processes and equipment starting with each letter of the alphabet. Let's go!

The theme for June is FRUITS. Do you have some fruit-related layouts to share? Maybe some fresh fruit you just harvested with the kids? Some decorated fruits for a party? Or anything related to fruits? Let's go! Post your project in the gallery.

Hey Helen! Nice to see you around. If you pic up PSP again, it is something you can do without too much walking! Check the forum and the blog. Just have fun and take it easy.
