Same here. The campus loaded instantly when I checked in this morning, and if I'm not mistaken, you are an hour ahead of the UK.

It's lovely. I have put a png version file in facebook, for anyone to download and use.

Nope, it's Photo 2.6.2

Due to the compression, the image isn't going to be the best. So what I have done is posted a png file on the facebook page for download. I did change it to gold, which can be changed to suit your needs.

That would be great, thanks. I'm sure your list is growing of tutorials to do. That particular effect, like so many does give a look of realism. In PSP it is ever so easy to do.

You took the words right out of my mouth.

There is a blog post. Type in Selection to path post. And it will pop up. At the time I debated whether or not to download it, as it needs another soft ware to download in order for it to work. You can either download both or just the script.

Thank you Carole, I suppose I'm predictable, when it comes to my unique style, as many of us are. lol

And here is my day 7. I must say that I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Affinity. The learning has only just begun. I am looking forward to learning so much more. Thank you ever so much Carole for introducing us to Affinity. What will we ever do without you! I used the Cowslip photo as a background paper, created a date stamp. I created an outlined text for the title WILD. which is quick and easy to do. Instead of using labels or tags, I often like to use brushes. As many will know, I am not a fan of patterned papers, I find they can be a distractation from the main focus, being the photo or photos. Which to me must take presidence. I have one more week at home in the UK, before returning to the prairies. My little girls and I have sauntered through woods and fields in search of wild flowers, creating memories, which I will undoubtably cherrish and showcase.

2 days ago, I mentioned to Carole in a message, that the campus was intermittently slow, it would even take a while to load, after clicking on the bell. This afternoon, I had problems clicking on save, after editing a comment. The save would not change to saving. Some of these issues happened, before the campus finally wouldn't load for many of us several days ago. Until, that is Carole resolved the issue.

Speaking for myself, I'm sold on Affinity, even though I have been using it for a mere fortnight. There are bound to be tools which you'll have in one program and not the other, and vice versa, it's inevitable.

I refer to them as self-seeding plants, or volunteer plants. Withinn the farming community we refer to them as self-sown plants

Absolutely!!!! It might be an idea for me to send one to you during this coming winter when the temps plummet to 30c below, that way the ice cream won't defrost in transit. lol

I'm going to suggest to Bee that she deletes the shadows she has, assuming that they were created on their own layer that is, and start again. Making sure that the horizontal and vertal offset settings are the same, lower the opacity and add some blur. Also, make sure the shadow on it's own layer box is checked.

Carole, I have every intention of continuing to use PSP. Also I, very much appreciated your kind commet that you made about my wordart. Here is my day 6. The title and flair buttons were done in PSP, the rest in Affinity. British Wild flowers. From left to right, coastal sea pinks (Thrift family), wild garlic and cowslips. Top flair button: periwinkles, bottom one are violets. I do take a little time scrolling through all the wonderful pages, far to many to comment on individually. All I can say is congratulations to one and all, each and every one are uniquely awesome and inspiring.

For someone who rarely uses templates, or when I do, I tend to change them. I really like this template over all the others in this workshop, as it would be something I'd create my self. In my view, he colours, and subject you chose, has done this template proud.

I must say that I am thoroughly enjoying the Affinity Template Workshop. Although I have incorporated some PSP. The mushrooms are what I had previously created, the tags are what I created some time ago, all I had to do was to add the text. The papers are my own, as like always are the photos, as I only ever use my own photos. The process of adding all the elements, papers, photos, shadows, etc, to complete the page, is almost effortless using Affinity. The more I use it the better I will get, providing I can remember all what I have learnt. I added the tags for better legibility. Carole has to take credit for the effort she puts into doing these workshops.

Always a pleasure to be of assistance.

My thought too.

I saw something similar on the telly, which I thought had potential to be used in a page. Anyway, I created my own version. What would you use it for in a project? The diamond could be replaced with something else, or completely removed. Created using vectors.

You would have seen them all before, as they are a sample of what I have posted over the years. Your comment is still very much appreciated.

I have been using Affinity for a fortnight now, and I'm finding many of its tools and techniques, especially within the layers section, dragging and dropping is much easier to use. I for one will be using Affinity, in order to learn more. So far I would say Affinity is on parr with PSP. If not more user friendly, simplifying and making many techniques quicker and easier.

Not at all, I create, all sorts of word art, even subway art all within PSP.

We have Walmart and Dairy Queen here. Mind you I have never been into a Dairy Queen, or any other fast food chain such as Mc Donalds or Burger King. I will occasionally have a Tim Horton's, soup combo though, on the rare occassion I go to the city. Although you can buy them in the supermarkets in the UK, my mum, would make an arctic roll. I like to make my own too, and still do.

I did notice that you spelt theatre, as theater in your second lesson. Both are correct, as America spells it with an er, where as the the Brits, and the rest of the English speaking world spells it theatre, as I do. To be consistent with your theme for this workshop, may I suggest you change the spelling on one of the pages.
