Ditto! I would love some help! I've been creating dvd slideshows for ages and wanted to spice them up. Wow are there some great scrapbook pages on here. This is sooo addicting. I can't wait to dig in to more.

I have never stuck to just one program. I kind of bounch around, or use elements in several different programs. I did discover a new program I love. I don't know if naming it would be advertising and/or how that is dealt with here, but it just came and I've been working on a zoo scrapbook. I'll post it when I'm done so anyone can tell me if they see the difference from what I posted earlier?

I'm seriously open to constructive critiques. I feel I would only benefit from the suggetions.

Hi , I also am new here and have been doing psp for some time. I was wondering if I could do better using psp as I am so used to it. I have also been trying to down load some of the free templates but keep getting message that I need encrypted password. I don't have a clue what it is or how to find it. Guess I need help.

The only program I am not real familiar with is Photoshop. But I have Photoshop Elements so am learing to use it also.

Hi I am really lost I use PSP8 so any help would be appreciated. I would really love to learn Thanks
Aug 19, 2007

I do agree that a beginners tutorial would be fantastic, the ones I have seen seem to be based on certain programmes which not everyone has. Also as one gets older it is harder to shift to a new programme (my work area is covered with sticky notes)
Just basic stuff would be great like sizing in pixels for uploading etc.

Hey there, im a newbie too, well at least to this digital stuff!! Ive been scrapping the old fashioned way for a number of years but just barely started this digital stuff!! Ive only done 2 pages but they are pretty simple!! I want to learn how to mat photos and where to get more advanced embellies!!
Sep 4, 2007

Hi TG,

I definately agree with you. There is a need for a tutorial group. Have you suggested it to the website? Some of these pages just blow me away and I am sure they are not easy to learn. Did you ever get a response from anyone on specifics as to who or where to find tutorials. I could do a google on it but that can take forever...you know how that goes.
Oct 4, 2007

Okaaaayyyyy..... I see here that I am noe the only one. Has anyone found any help!? Any tuorials for photo editing?? I am using a very basic editor but would like to buy something thast can be for newbies to advanced but MUST HAVE A TUTORIAL any suggestions links etc???
Thanks

Someone should Google "free online digital scrapbooking tutorials" or " photo editing tutorials" or even for specific programs and find some good stuff and post the urls here for all of us. I volunteer, but here in Ghana my Internet connection literally crawls! But I will do what I can with what I have! Any one else wanna help?
Oct 16, 2007

I started a few months ago here. First, I studied the work of others. There are quite a few different stiles that scrapers use. Some are very simple and other are quite complicated requiring expertise in photo-editing. I browsed the Net and found a lot of freebies. I joined 'PrincessCraft' ($5 a month), they have a tutorial '101 lessons..' a couple of (pdf) books (I can email one to you) and a gazillion of elements, templates and backgrounds. I can learn technique, but whether I can make a page like 'PascaleA,' 'momykitty', 'marsmella', 'danic', 'gypsykate', 'tina's creations' and 'misslilly' remains to be seen. Some things one can not learn, they come from within.

I use Serif Digital Scrapbook Artist 2, and am also a member of Daisy Trail. They have some excellent tutorials relating to this program, but I'm sure they would also work with other programs as well. Not sure if you have to be a member to view the tutorials or not, but here is the link:

Also, on YouTube, I have found these:

Or do a search for "digital scrapbooking tutorials". There are lots for different programs.
