What happens when you try to use TheFontThing? Also, Character Map does not replace the font viewer; it only allows you to use extra glyphs that are not readily, and the font has to be installed anyways. The way I am using TFT is to access fonts that are not installed. You can do the same with Nexus font I think. https://scrapbookcampus.com/2020/10/featured-resource-nexusfont/

Glad to hear that it was such a simple issue (although it can cause a big headache!).

Do you happen to have a selection? Sometimes, a tiny selection is present and makes a tool "not work". Try to deselect with Ctrl-D, and then try the shadow again?

Too bad I didn't see you! 🙂 But yeah. I try to remind people who are live to just enjoy watching and not worry about taking notes, or worse, trying to work along, since the replay will be available afterward!

I can look but an adjustment layer is just a greyscale layer that acts like a mask. So, a script similar to the Raster to mask might be possible. Something like Raster to Adjustment?? Worth looking into that.

Actually, there is! https://creationcassel.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=7_9&products_id=668

I don't know why but even though it is saved as a png file, it opens like a jpg, with a background layer. I tested in PSP2023, but also in an old PSP9 with the same result. Interestingly, if opened in Photoshop (I have an old CS5), it does open with a transparent background. My guess is that she is using Photoshop, and there might be a setting for the png save that either was not set, or changed. If most users who download her images use Photoshop or Photoshop Element, nobody would have noticed it.

All the days get blurred in my head at times! It is a good thing I have specific things to do on specific days to help me remember what day we are!

That little out-of-bound effect is subtle but gives a nice touch!

In December, our monthly theme is CHRISTMAS. This should be fairly easy to have various words related to Christmas. It could be food, traditions, activities, decorations, etc. Let's go!

The theme for December is CHRISTMAS. Although Christmas themes and decorations are all around us, it is also possible that you celebrate a different holiday. You can share that in this thread too. And if you need to leave some cookies for Santa, check out the blog post freebie. Let's go! Post your project in the gallery.

It is a new month and new projects. Show off what you are working on in December 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.

I had replaced the zip file on the server. Just to make sure, I changed the name now and added b at the end of the filename.

Amazingly, you are the first. For anyone who has not fixed that, and don't want the trouble of doing it, I have updated the download file so you can get a CORRECT month.

Been working on organizing most of the topics I can think of and adding links to blog posts addressing them. I am surprised to see that almost all the topics ARE covered with a blog post or a few classes! That will make the process faster than having to write from scratch! Here is what I have so far: 1. Digital Scrapbooking Why scrapbooking? Why digital? 2. What is a scrapbook page? Parts of a page Supplies – what and where TOU Photoshop resources PSP resources Scrapbooking styles 3. Getting started Starting points Quick pages Templates Sketches Scraplifting From scratch Size and format 4. Layers The sandwich Linking and grouping 5. Using photos Resizing Basic fixes Using bad photos Big or small Black and white Some photo effects 6. Papers Layering Shaping/cutting 7. Titles Fonts and alphas Types of titles 8. Journaling Type of journaling Ways to add it Text on path 9. Decorative elements Fasteners Ribbons and bows Frames Tags Using greyscale elements 10. Additional elements Shadows Double pages Picture tubes Common mistakes 11. Fun extras Out-of-bound Brush work Changing colors 12. Scrap with me Scrapbook page 1 – quick page Scrapbook page 2 - template Scrapbook page 3 – sketch Scrapbook page 4 – scraplifting Scrapbook page 5 – from scratch

And another And the text: I like to climb in the park. Daddy shows me how to keep my balance, and how to go higher without being scared. Maybe... someday... I will be... a construction worker.

Next page: And the text: I like to play golf. Daddy shows me how to hold the clubs and hit the ball. It is not always easy but it is fun. Maybe... someday... I will be... a golfer.

The good thing is that it was fast. Using other online print shops would take a couple of weeks each time so fixing any error would not be good.

Here is another one. And the text: I like to sing Baby Shark. Daddy shows me how a shark swims and how a shark can bite. But I am not scared. Maybe... someday... I will be... a marine biologist.

I just ordered from Staples too. Are you happy with the quality?

What kind of handmade gifts do you (or did you) make? Crafts? Baking? Writing? Share ideas of what you have made as personalized handmade presents. Let's chat.

Here is the next photo: And the matching text: I like to play with my train. Daddy shows me how to build the tracks and ride the train on the bridge. Maybe... someday... I will be... a train conductor.

And page 2 will have this image on the left And this text on the right: I like to work in the yard. Daddy shows me how to rake leaves, how to put them in bags. We can even play a little with all those leaves. Maybe... someday... I will be... a landscaper.

I guess I can now share the pages I did for my handmade Christmas gift (I picked my son-in-law) so here is the cover for the book.

I am glad to see more pages done @Daniel Hess!
