You might have seen those types of word art where various words are displayed in different fonts, different sizes, and sometimes, different orientations to fit inside of a frame. This type of project can be referred to as "Subway art". Let's see how you can create your own project with PaintShop Pro, whether you plan on using it for a frame to put on the wall, or a greeting card for a friend.
This tool is called "magic" because it is powerful, but those powers can be intimidating when you don't understand all the intricacies of what can be done. The Magic Wand is probably one of the most commonly used tools by many PaintShop Pro users, are they using it in the best way possible? Let's look at the many settings that can make this tool do magic.
For us to function well, we can’t just rely on food alone. We also have to drink in order to survive. The basic function of a drink is to satisfy our thirst but that’s not only what this consumable liquid can do.
There are certain drinks that can do our body good. Milk, fresh juice, smoothie, and water are some of the perfect examples of a nutritious beverage. When they’re consumed habitually, you will reap the benefits and enjoy a healthier life. Your body will surely thank you.
However, not all drinks are created equal. Some may not be good for your physical health and could potentially do you more harm. But as we know, there are also some beverages that can help ease your anxiety and relieve your stress despite containing the booze. You just need to keep in mind that drinking in moderation is the key.
Here, we’ve collected several fun layouts featuring some of the most popular drinks we love. You may want to create your very own drink-themed scrapbook project right after seeing them! Which of these drinks do you usually have?
If you are collecting a lot of fonts, you might face a specific challenge when it comes to choosing and using them. Font viewers can be a great help in that area. In the past, I have mentioned TheFontThing as one font viewer that had a particular advantage for PaintShop Pro users: you can use fonts without having to install them. NexusFont also has that advantage, so you get two programs for this particular need.
You might already know that PaintShop Pro allows its users to use or import several resources made for Photoshop. PaintShop Pro can open .psd files, and since version X5, it can import .abr brush files. In addition, Photoshop preset shapes can also be converted with a script. But did you know that it can also import gradients meant for Photoshop?
Light is defined as electromagnetic radiation that can be detected by the human eye. It occurs over an extremely wide range of wavelengths. As we all know, there are various sources of light. Some of them are natural while others are artificial.
Light is a very important part of our everyday lives. It’s actually everywhere, from our bedrooms to our streets and offices. It’s also an essential energy source that keeps us warm and lets us see the world around us. Can you imagine what the world would have been like if light didn’t exist?
To give appreciation to this element, we chose to make it as our theme for this month. Here are some great layouts that showcase different kinds of lights to help spark your creativity and provide you an idea for your next scrapbooking adventure.
If you look in galleries, you might seek a variety of sizes used for the photos in layouts. Some of them will have huge photos used as a background, some will have photos taking half the space of the layout while others will have tiny photos barely visible. What is the purpose of those different sizes?
Although scrapbooking is perceived as an artistic memory keeping, some scrapbookers just want to create art and the photos are not the focus of their project. The importance of the photos and the memories might, in some cases, determine their sizes in a layout. However, other factors can determine whether the artist will use a large or small photo.
PaintShop Pro is a very powerful program that might take a while to learn. Even though each tool and command is, in itself, fairly simple, there are many little tricks that could make your life easier when working on your project. Those tips are often not part of any user manual, or if they are, they are spread over hundreds of pages, hidden in a short sentence that can easily be missed. Over the years, I have discovered many such tips and tricks and have shared them on a weekly basis in the store newsletter, but have collated them into a single book.
PaintShop Pro has a lot of common tools and photographers have the ability to tweak their photos in many ways. Those tools are not just for professionals, as everyone can use them to edit photos in creative ways. Let's see how you can change the color of a particular element with PaintShop Pro. Although there are several ways to change colors, we will look at the Change to Target tool.
The Flood Fill tool is one of those tools that you will be using on so many projects that it will become second nature. Although it is a simple tool, and usually intuitive to use, it does have various settings that can make it even more powerful or turn into a headache for you. Let's have a look.
