Tutorial Suggestions!?!

I added a field called 'Software' to the profile page. If you add what software you use, it will show up under your avatar.

Goofys Girl and I had the same idea for this.

I also added Camera and Operating System to the profile fields, though they won't show up under the avatar at the moment. I can change the code to show one/both of them if there is enough interest.

Hi,

I've purchased a few kits that have the alphas as 1 file instead of all the letters being a seperate file. How do I use those letters when they are in 1 file? I use SBC for my layouts (and am pretty new to this & looking for all the help I can get).

Thanks so much!!!

Well... I use SBC and can tell you how I do it... but I am completely self taught... so there might be a better way... lol..

I just add the full alpha to my page and then use the rectange cutting tool to carve/cut out the letters I want. I know several of the ladies prefer the alphas all on one sheet as it doesn't eat up as much space.

Shoot me a PM if you need more help. I can walk you through the process if you like.

Good luck!

How about a tutorial on how to make a signature? I still haven't figured that out....

[Fran98765]

For a signature I start with a canvas of 3600x1800. create my "layout" and include my name. I crop the image to eliminate extra unused space. Then I merge and resize to about 500 width and save for web. If I do not use a background, I save as a png to get the transparency, otherwise save as a jpg.

Upload your sig to an image hosting site like photobucket and add it to your sig under User CP on the forums you visit.

Just be sure the height is 200px or less, please

Thanks!

Thanks Carol and Fran! I'll give it a try soon.

With so many people using Photoshop, I always feel like a little like Cinderella (the step daughter that isn't as loved )

I see a lot of masks and other items that are made to "clip" to photos to create a certain look. Maybe antiqued, folded edged, or clear photo protector and I can't seem to be able to use them.

The protectors I bought were in .tif and/or .psd files and I couldn't really utilitize them since they were designed to be clipped to the photo and just laying it on top of the photo didn't make it look like it was in a pocket.

Now, I see a cute set of clipping masks in .png, but I don't know if it will work for me. Here is the description: "Use these clipping masks to easily transform your papers and photos instantly with slightly worn edges."
Does anyone have any suggestions for us lowly SBC users. Thanks
