When you have a photo, sometimes, you would like to add a little something that was not in the photo. It could be for a laugh or something more serious but adding a new element to a photo can be used in many contexts. Let's see how we can add a simple element to an ordinary photo.

Add Text Along any Path
In various projects, adding text is essential, whether it is for a title, a name or additional information. By default, text will be displayed in a straight line. However, with PaintShop Pro, one can get very creative and place the text in different ways, following a different path.
Scrapbooking Theme – Outer Space
Outer space, also known as ‘space’, is the area outside the Earth’s atmosphere where planets, stars, and other celestial bodies are situated. Scientists have said that this particular zone is about 100 kilometers (60 miles) above sea level. There are about four different regions of space. They are the Geospace, the Interplanetary space, the Interstellar space, and the Intergalactic space.
Have you ever dreamed of going to outer space? Do you imagine yourself wearing space suits and go on space exploration? Make that wish come true even just on a scrapbook page! Here, we’re going to share some great layouts that showcase anything related to outer space.
10 minutes to scrap – Embellishments
After building the base of your page, with photos, papers, and text, you already have a very good idea of what your project will look like. At this point, although you can still tweak here and there, the changes are likely to be minimal. In this 10 minutes, let's add some embellishments.
Fixing your workspace
When you work with PaintShop Pro, you have the option to use one of the default display for the workspace or customize it to suit your own needs and preferences. Once you are set, it is important to SAVE your workspace. Follow this tutorial to learn how to do so. However, once in a while, some palettes or toolbars seem to disappear or misbehave. What is happening? And how do you fix that?
Selecting Text to Edit
When working with text in PaintShop Pro, you are likely to need to go back to it, to edit the spelling, to add more text, to change some attributes, etc. But how do you get that cursor to appear or the text to get highlighted? Let's have a look at a few tips that could help you.
Scrapbooking Theme – Rain
The rain has always been regarded as a blessing. It helps in growing plants and essential crops. Rain also brings in flowers and rainbows that everyone totally enjoys. Without it, there would be no life. Drought will hit every land and will create a devastating effect not just for animals but also for humankind.
You see, rain plays a vital role on our planet. It’s part of a process for sustaining life and growth here on Earth. It also gives us hope and assurance that things can be beautiful once again. And we believe that the season of rain is something worth celebrating so we’re sharing these fun layouts to ignite some inspiration for your very own rain-themed projects.
Featured Resource – Pic-to-Painting
Pic-to-Painting is a new plugin available starting with PaintShop Pro 2019. It is free and can generate some very interesting results from any photo, whether they are particularly great to start with, or maybe not that great!
10 minutes to scrap – Text and Title
At this point, you should already have your project "almost" done. With the photos fixed, and the papers chosen, layered, and arranged. It is time to add some journaling and a title. Although a picture is worth a thousand words, it does not always convey all the information YOU know about it, so anyone else looking at it won't get the whole story if you don't write it.
