This will come in handy!

If anyone has any links to some Paintshop tutorials (not Photoshop, I can't afford that!) please post them :smile:

Oh man, this is sweet. It's interesting how learning one thing lets a flood of ideas flow out.

So, what is it, exactly, you are doing? Are you creating fonts or doing text effects? I'm a Photoshop person, so I'm not sure what the new skill is. Fill me in! (And, if you feel like experimenting with JardinPrayer, I won't mind!)

Before I could only do letters in a straight line. Now I have learned how to put them on a plane that curves upward and downward. It is small, but it gives me a lot more creative prowess :smile:

If you want to use it on a website, I might be able to change it to the color that you want

(Off topic:) Just make sure you save your current template because I love it. I hate it when people just wipe out their past layouts and content rather than archiving them.

it is similar to the text path tool in photoshop. you select the Pen tool and select Paths and then create the path and use the text tool to write along the path like so.

I'll own photoshop one day.. and their animation thing (I forgot its name) looks really cool. There's no tweening in Animation Shop. I need Tweening.

it is of little benefit with 10Kb file size limits (or whatever the tweb restriction is). :shifty:

are you planning on creating movies or flash?

I am going to, eventually. I thought I had everything I needed for Flash a while back, but it turns out I don't. One day I am going to invest in this stuff, once I have my own 'site and everything...

But tweening is great because it makes things go faster. It sucks to move an object between point A and point B frame by frame.

It's called ImageReady (the animation portion of Photoshop). I thought I PMed you about that once, babe.

Jardin, let me give you a visual metaphor to describe my memory: My ability to retain memories is like a net. Memories are like jello. Jello is always sliding right through the net, and if I make the net tighter, they slip out even faster. :demure:

Anyways.. I was lurking on a forum and one of the posters mentioned ImageReady and tweening...
