Read MoreTutorial: No Fuss Saving, Loading, Re-Saving Layer Styles in Photoshop
Saving Saving Styles is best done outside of the Photoshop program. New to you? The more you load into Photoshop the slower it goes, the more resources Photoshop needs from your computer to open and function properly… the more likely it is to crash unexpectedly too. If you don’t already have a method of storing scrapbooking materials make a Design Folder on your main drive or better yet on a secondary drive dedicated to scrapbook graphics that can easily be backed up. The easier it...
Read MoreTroubleshooting Live Writer
Having trouble with Live Writer recently made me realize how much my world revolves around having a simple, offline blogging tool. I promised my computer, if it helped me fix the problem, just did its part, and quit being a pill. I would write a little blog post to help others stuck in the same mess I was in. Help did arrive and as promised here it is…a rope for those mired in quicksand. Heave. Scroll to bottom if your LIVE WRITER has become inexplicably damaged and you have to find...

Read MoreHanukkah, Tutorial Links
Hey Folks! Tonight marks the 5th night of Hanukkah. I once asked a child I was babysitting ( I was 12, no more than a child myself) who was celebrating this glorious holiday and she was so excited to tell me all she knew. I was in awe! She knew more about her observance than I did of Christmas. Real Christmas.
