Carole/Cassel: That looks like a totally different layout size compared to our earlier pages. I was working in 2550px x 3300px so I could print at 8.5" x 11" portrait aspect.
-
Susan Ewart: I vote for the red one! ;-) I had a thought about text bounding boxes: it's a feature that is not supported by Photoshop so I'm wondering if there's a connection there?? (just speculating...)

Bonnie mentioned this template, so I decided to have it actually display multiple photos. My granddaughter, Ilana's bridal shower was Sun July 17.

DAY 9 - PROJECT 5 - AT CONVENTION - This is my eldest daughter, Debbie, this summer at her AIA convention in Chicago. She lives and practices in Northern California. She is Magic's grandmother. The background photo is by Juliana Marx on Unsplash. The title font is Babilonia.

Pirkko: That is beautiful! I love your color choices.
-
Michele: I also enjoy turning QPs into templates. I don't use a script. I noticed the background FB adds so I add a black border to my "desktop" size (900x900). My desktop is black so it works there and FB always picks up on the black and just adds more, according to their algorithm. Here's an example ...

Susan Ewart: As usual, you are hilarious! :-D I do make the templates from scratch, so watch out, they may make strange layouts! ;-)
Your Tea Time is beautiful! And the Bootcamp isn't going faster, you're on a roll! You go, girl!

kasany: thank you!

DAY 9-PROJECT 4: SCHOOL Daze - My granddaughter Anna, the first-born of my grandchildren, and her college friends in 2006 at UC Berkeley. She majored in Asian Studies and then went on for her MS in Speech Therapy.
I used a Pixelscrapper mini-kit called Argyle from Marisa Lerin. This kit had me struggling a bit to get colors to match, which is not my usual experience with kits. I think I'll also post the kit preview and you'll see for yourself! ;-)
The title fonts are: Britannic Bold and Childish. The small journaling text is Agency FB. The scatters are Picture Tube bubbles. I also used the Picture Tube to add stitching on the button.
I also made a template from Carol/Cassels example layout which I will post in our Facebook files.

My Great-grand Magic's mom has her at work making potions! (Yes, really, I think!) Day 7 Project, I made a template from Carole's example and then chose a kit called Summer in my Backyard-lrd, that I used exclusively, though I had to reduce the opacity on most of it as the colors hurt my eyes! :-D Granddaughter-in-law Lucy supplied the title, text and photos. I'll leave the template in the Facebook files.

BOOTCAMP-DAY5-ADVENTURE - This is a colonial-era tavern in my hometown of Warwick, NY. I guess the war was hot and heavy in this area. And not everyone was on the same page. There was a forge that was destroyed by Washington's troops because it kept selling munitions to the British! My late husband and I enjoyed cocktails in Baird's Tavern with Rotary friends. It's beautifully restored. I used a Revolutionary era map for the background and found a color palette for that era, too. The headline font is Classic Barbershop. I created a template from Carole's design. I'll post it in the Facebook files if anyone would like a simple, classic layout.

Suzy: One tip - vector layers will always show a small white arrow just to the left, which when clicked, will open it up to allow text editing. On your screenshot, that would be the layer on the bottom. Hope this helps!
-
Susan Ewart: That's very pretty! Let's have tea, or coffee or wine! ;-) I hear ya' about the flood fill missing the elements if you're filling a layer on the bottom. I noticed that and now I just move the layer to the top, temporarily, fill and then slide it back down. Maybe locking transparency would help? IDK - This didn't seem to happen with previous versions of PSP.

My entry for Bootcamp: Day 3 - Cherry Shrimp aka Crustaceans in my Aquarium. (Not for human consumption ;-) )
The title font is Bodoni MT Poster Compressed. The background photo is my aquarium with the highlighted photo of one of my Cherry Shrimp. I also have some Orange Sunkist Shrimp and I still have my Nerite Snail named Roomba. I haven't named the shrimp as I plan on slowly adding more. They do better in groups.
-
Michele: The frame is a freebie from the store when the script came out. I did some color changing so I have several versions. Glad you like it. I love the Singer with Goldfinch art!
-
Carole: Here's the revised sandwich and tablescape. Thanks for your help!
-
Carole/Cassel: I hid everything, and this is what's left. I originally made a copy of the plate to be able to create the saucer under the cup. I also applied some effects to the saucer. Why is the original plate included in the effects? It isn't on that layer! Aarrgghh!
-
Cassel/Carole: No, I did the shadowing on the plate and saved it before adding the sandwich. When I added the sandwich, I did it in layers of components: first bread, then lettuce, then tomato, etc., each on its own layer. When the layers were added, they all looked quite transparent through the color, and I could see a hazy plate underneath. Very odd! I've never seen that effect before! I even duplicated the sandwich to try to make it more opaque. I had not changed the opacity on anything except the background. Ah, I bet that's what it is! You think? Maybe not because change the opacity doesn't seem to help. Here's the half-sandwich that looks bent on the plate. Without the plate it's not bent. None of my shadows are separate.
-
Suzy: I suspect you are using the "alt" upload button located on the right end at the top of the message area. That would give you the large image. If you scroll down a bit, there's a large, gray "Upload Images" button on the left. If you use that your image will look a lot smaller but will be "clickable" so it opens large for inspection. Hope this helps!
Cassel/Carole: I have a question. If you look at my sandwich on my plate you can see where the bread, etc. seems to be pushed up from underneath by the rim of the plate. I did apply a buttonize effect to the plate rim but that was long before I added the sandwich! Never encountered this phenomenon before! :-\ (here's my image again so you don't have to go looking for it)
-
Here's the sixth sandwich and table setting I've made through the years for this class. A flowery cloth and played with the setting and sandwich ingredients. Yum!
-
Lisa: What I do is go up to Windows and Uncheck Tabbed. Then each image will have its own window. Each image can be minimized to the bottom where it's accessible for further work or most times I just scale them down small so they stay open but not "underfoot" ( ;-) ) Hope this helps!
-
Here's a screenshot of my workspace. I decided to fiddle to see if I could do this and it's easy-peasy. Go to File/Screenshot, click Start (PSP will minimize), re-open PSP and right-click and voila, there's your screenshot image. I had to reduce the size for posting here.

I was just playing with a little framing, using this gorgeous watercolor a friend showed me. The artist is Cori Lee Marvin. I used Cassel's stitching frame, echoing the sewing theme and played with drop shadows, mostly on the mat, and I like the illusion of depth that I achieved. I have this on my desktop. I've named it Singer with Goldfinches. :-)

I forgot to post a photo. Here's the latest of Magic, my great-granddaughter who just turned 2 on June 4th.
