I am not sure where you can REMOVE the Edit history. You can stop it in the Program Preferences, but not sure how to get rid of what is already there. Something to look into.

@Anja Pelzer Nice soft colors in that title. They match the page very well. @Sue Thomas Thanks for pointing out that they were pine cones in the fill. The resizing of the image made it harder to identify what they were. That Red squirrel is adorable! @Lesley Maple I'll have to find a way to get that effect in PSP!! Did you add shadows on the papers under the photo? I think it would add more definition, especially on a busy background. @MoniqueN. Have you considered trying to add some shadows on the little elements inside the "Baby" title? I wonder if it would add some volume? Not a big shadow but just a little. @Michele It is fun to see the fill on the top part of the text. A little unexpected but definitely in line with the theme! @Susan Ewart I am curious to know what you put in the title. Are those confetti? @Linda J Walker Glad to see that you are sharing the title on its own, even if the page is not ready. @Julie Magerka The owl photo really makes me smile! For the title, since you have a patterned background, have you considered adding a little shadow on the letters as if they were cut out of papers? @Linda Hitt Great way to customize a template. It is always a starting point, but the destination is often different! @Hank Sobah I love how you layered that single fish on top of the title. It really gives it some depth too. Colorful concert page! @nadine Nice idea to have the clouds on top of the fill! Templates are meant to be changed!!! ? @Ann Seeber You might want to tweak the placement of the text as the overlapping with the decorative element is inconsistent. Maybe move the text a little downward or resize the decorative element a little to shift upward? That change in size for the title really gives that impression of jumping!! @Cristina Due to the resizing, I am not sure so what did you use to fill the title? Are those confetti? @Donna Sillia You filled the title with tiny Easter eggs, right? @Louyse Toupin Did you place the scattered confetti and rotated a duplicate by any chance? It looks like there are two different types of shadows on them. @Bonnie Ballentine What kind of pattern were you looking for? @Corrie Kinkel Changing colors word by word is definitely another way to use this technique. @Mary Solaas That yellow is really standing out! You might want to add (or add more) shadows on your papers to give them thickness. @Pirkko Seppälä Awe... sweet photo!!! The whole family! @Gerry Landreth Sand in the hair! that is no fun! But the picture is worth it!!!

Interesting that it was not part of a larger "settlement". But yes, at Kings Landing, that is exactly how the interpreters talk to you. They really bring you into THEIR time.

Is there a historical village near you? Did you visit some? Which ones? What are they about? Let's chat.

You put them all in this single thread.

@Linda Hitt It is nice to replicate the cookie texture in the text. @Julie MagerkaThat is a fun photo and definitely a great match for that title. @Rene MarkerIf you don't have a full page to display, do you have the "final" version of the title? Even if you shared only the title on its own, it might still inspire others. @Louyse ToupinMay I offer one suggestion? Place the flower on top of the photo instead of under as a flower would be too thick to glue a photo on it! ? @Ann SeeberA candy-filled title. How can it be more Easter-y?? ? @Pirkko SeppäläSprouts in the title! Great idea! @Marie-ClaireBefore reading your intro on that page, I could have wondered what Poncho was holding!! @Corrie KinkelGreat way to see your kit "in action"!

It will show the text and it will be "attached" the the cursor until you move it somewhere. But it won't be in vector format.

Oh, is it possible that the Create as... has been changed to Selection instead of Vector?

Are you using 2023? There is a "bug" that happens if the file is saved with the bottom layer active. Somehow, it messes PSP and then it is really hard to select layers correctly. For that, you would need to activate another layer first, save the file, close it and reopen it.

Once a week, there is a radio show that has been on for many years. It is called Vinyl Tap. It is 2 hours of songs that are picked around a particular theme. Sometimes, it has to do with a word, sometimes, a topic, sometimes it is another particularity (like "unlikely duets"). Since are always starting to look forward to the warmer weather at this time of year, use a title or lyrics of a song that has the word SPRING in the title. We want to feel the warmth! Are you up to the challenge?

Although only a handful has posted, there are already over 150 registrants for this workshop. Woohoo!!!!

We can certainly make it a new cohort every year if the demand is there!

That one is kind of ongoing. The only thing you would sign up for is the email reminders. But check in the DIAMOND only section and all the links are there! You can still join in!

Are you a crafty person? What kind of crafts do you like or do you dream of doing? Share with us. Let's chat.

Happy birthday!!!

I got ONE notification of the newsletter not being delivered to a recipient today (and it was to a gmail account) saying that something is not matching in the SPF and DMARK so I'll have to look into it. I got the notification for one, but who knows if others were affected too. This is so annoying in the backend too!

Freebies are great resources that you can find in many places to build a library of elements, graphics, and tools. Since they are free, they are available to all. For this challenge, grab this fun font from Creative Fabrica (and yes, it is free). It is fun, irregular, and will make anyone smile. Will you use it on a kid theme or just something whimsical? Grab this font HERE. How will you use this font?

I wish I knew how all those email providers work. At least, I am glad those emails reach you. Before the latest changes, some emails were actually REJECTED by some email providers. I guess the spam folder is an improvement!

No, you can just make a selection and trim the paper. Even for photos, you don't HAVE to convert them to masks. It is just one easy way, and more useful for photos.

At that point, are each square is on its own layer. So, you can turn them into mask layer one by one, or group some (like the four together). Or you can use them as template to replace by papers.

That is strange. Although one issue might be duplicates since supplies included in the data folder might be the same from one version to another. When you point PSP to a different file location, it does not usually include anything in the data folder. Even if you "import from previous version", it does not consider the data folder. Although they are often the same, it is not ALWAYS the case. For example, some picture tubes in PSP9 have not been included in subsequent versions. The suggestion to have "all supplies" outside of PSP, mostly means the ones in Documents. Having all in one folder has several advantages: supplies are available in multiple versions at the same time, if you are using more than one version. as soon as you add new supplies, they are immediately available in all the versions pointing to that folder if you uninstall one version, there is no risk of losing supplies you have created/purchased/downloaded. Although you are asked if you want to remove those folders when uninstalling, it is not 100% sure. It happened to me ONCE. The only inconvenient I found is that some supplies are somewhat version-dependant. For example brushes used in older versions could only be 500 pixels. Then, in version X, it went up to 999 pixels, and in X8, it went up to 3000 pixels. This means that if you download a brush that is 1500 pixels, you cannot use it in versions older than X8, even if the File Location points to the folder where they are. In that case, you might want to make sure to identify the folder by the Brush size (I offer brushes with the suffix -999 for larger ones and -500 for the smaller ones).

Oh yeah, the bathroom sink!! Slippers never used that, but another cat of mine did! I have had several cats over the years so there are many locations that were favorite. One cat even loved the box of Legos. Talk about something that should not be very "comfy"!

One thing I found out is the the BrushTip_ file that ends in .PspScript, refers to the file name of the .PspBrush file. If you might have changed the name of that file (say, you want to rename them so they had the designer's name or some other way to be meaningful), that change has to also be done INSIDE the .PspScript file, otherwise, you get that blob. I have done that mistake when I tried to organize brushes!

Yes. The blobs you see are likely because one of the two files is missing. You might have accidentally deleted the other but more likely, you didn't save it where it is supposed to go (maybe yu didn't know about the BrushTip_ file since it ends in .pspScript). You can always "import" them and PSP will create the missing file for you. You can also use sub-folders for the brushes, always making sure you have both files together. So you can have a sub-folder for my corner punches, one for the stitching brushes, one for watercolor brushes, etc. That way, if you know what you want to use, you can always change the Category on top to the sub-folder you want to browse, instead of "All", which is then quite long to scroll. You can even point PSP to only some sub-folders if you don't want it to load them all. For example, if you have brushes for specific holidays (like Christmas), you might not need them in June.

Another workshop will soon start. Are you in? It will start on March 20th. This workshop is FREE for everyone, so spread the word. This workshop is meant to be for those with some experience with PaintShop Pro. If you are brand new to using the program, it will be a little more challenging, although we are here to help you if you still want to participate. Did you find this thread before the registration page? Here it is. Written instructions and extra supplies will be available to our DIAMOND members.
