Stargazy — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 20:50:05 +0000

Within the last days I extracted again some dried roses and I worked on a new product for my Itsy Bits series. You will find both products in all my shops: Scrap Wishes, Digital Scrap Designs, DigiScrapWarehouse, Commercial Use, CUDigitals

Dried Roses #2

This set contains 7 extracted dried roses elements. Each comes in a separate .png file at 300 dpi with no drop-shadows. The preview shows the actual size of these elements, as compared to a 12"x12" paper!

Itsy Bits #5

This set contains 30 itsy-bitsy heart embellishments (PNG format, 300 dpi), which were digitally created by me. Use these embellisments to give your layouts and elements a little bling. The preview shows the actual size of these elements, as compared to a 12"x12" paper!

PSP Tip: Problems with Setting a Material to Transparent in Paint Shop Pro?

Stargazy — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 07:54:01 +0000

Do you want to set the Background or Foreground Material to transparent and the Transparent button is greyed out? Then check which tool you have selected right now, since not all tools support transparency (e.g. painting tools). Select a different tool and the transparent button will be available again.

PSP Tip: Creating Super BladePro Previews

Stargazy — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 06:49:45 +0000

Super BladePro is one of my favourite filters for Paint Shop Pro. If you are not familiar with it, have a look here.

You might have noticed that often no preview is displayed when you open a specific preset for this filter. The .q9q files do not display any previews but .p5p files will do. .q9q is an older format of BladePro and needs to be converted to Super BladePro format.
Just open your preset (q9q) and then just save it by clocking the Save Preset button:
The preset will now be saved as a .q5q file with the preview. The .q9q file can now be deleted (or moved).

I recommend creating a 75x75px image with a white circle selected and then open Super PladePro. This will create a nice preview if you save the .q5q files:
