Julia M....my special helper this week.

THANK YOU JULIA! I finally got around to looking at that tutorial on how to make thread for my buttons and it was wonderful. I took the basic concept and applied it to PSP. THANK YOU! Unfortunately, I learned how to do this AFTER the last part of my kit came out. LOL. You were such a big help. Let's all give a hand to Julia M for helping me this week. And just for that, you get ALL my kits for FREE! How about that? :)

Here is the link she sent me for those out there that want to learn how to make thread for your buttons. YEA! http://www.scrapbook-bytes.com/a-tuts/publish/article_695.shtml

How to make thread for buttons

Okay, for the LIFE of me, I can't figure out how to make thread for my buttons I create. Does anybody know how to do this in PSP? ARGGGGGG! I have buttons for this kit and they look unfinished without thread running through them. Can someone please steer me in the right way for a tut? Thanks!

Tiled papers...any good tuts?

Hello all, sorry I've been MIA for a while. This move has got me busy and I don't have the energy at the end of the night to do ANYTHING. I am getting ready to start my new kit though and have a question.

I use PSPX and have NO IDEA how to tile an image to make a 12x12 paper. In other words, I have 1 graphic I want to use but don't know how to make it show up on the paper in rows/columns etc. Does anybody know how to do this or can you please point me in the direction of a good tut? I know it's probably pretty easy but for the life of me I can't figure it out. THANKS!

Okay, .rar vs. .zip....the scoop

Okay, so I think i'm going to stick with .rar files for now. Okay, stop the groaning....but it seems only a couple of you can't get .rar files right now. Well, all that is about to change. There are a couple of sites you can go to do download the files needed to unzip .rar files (for free!). Here are a couple websites (as told to me by some nice readers)....

An interesting question... and I don't have an answer. However, I DO know that there's a free program that will unzip .rar files. It's called unzipthemall and can be found here: http://www.herve-thouzard.com/modules/wfsection/article.php?articleid=6

Not sure about a program to zip for free, but for those who wish to download and use the rar files you've created can download the free 7-zip program. It will download rar files by using a right click. Hope this helps!

You can download Stuffit trial version. After 30 days, you will be asked to purchase it or lose some of the extras. You can continue to use this program as long as you wish without cost. You don't need any of the features that you would have to pay for to zip and unzip files. I have used it for over a year, now, without problem.

Shawn, I recommend 7-Zip. You can zip/unzip files with that and it's free. (And like someone commented above, it also unzips rar files.)Here's the link: http://www.7-zip.org/

You can still use rar files and let people know that "Extract Now" is a free program that extracts rar and zip files. It's so easy.

Thank you to all of you who took the time to help me out with this. It seems all they have to do is go to one of these sites and download the free program to unzip .rar files. Then they'll be able to unzip other designers stuff that use .rar files. I know there are a few out there.

I'm currently working on 2 new QP's. I'll have those for you this weekend. Until then, here is a new QP from Nana again using her "Sweet n Sassy" kit. Enjoy!

You can download it HERE.

Help!

Okay, I need a little help. I'm trying to put together a header (instead of the plain one Blogger has for me) but I don't really know the dimensions that I should create it with. CAn anyone help me? I know I'm probably missing it somewhere but I created one and it was too big. Does anyone know what dimensions I should use? THANKS SO MUCH!
