If someone asked for your advice on life, what ONE WORD would you choose to share with them and why? ]]> Scrap Blogs gracelikerain http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=32793 Challenge etiquette http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=32792&goto=newpost Mon, 07 Jul 2008 07:04:30 GMT On rare occasion, I've had it happen that the challenge kit is one I've gotten for free for some reason. I feel really guilty using a free kit to get more free stuff, so thought I'd ask the experts if that was ok. I guess the designers know or suspect they'll be using a kit for a challenge when they give it away, but I know they put a lot of hard work into things and don't want to "cheat" them!

Any feedback? ]]> Site Info Raphne http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=32792 Feed (Make Comments On) the Layouts July 7th http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=32791&goto=newpost Mon, 07 Jul 2008 05:54:46 GMT :wave: Good Morning Good Afternoon Good Evening :wave:



It's time to Feed (Make Comments On) the Layouts

What does that mean?? It means if you have a layout that's in need of comments, post a link to it in this thread!! Then we will all know your comment hungry layout is in need of some feeding!


Here's how it works . . . post a link to your layout in this thread. Then, whenever you have a few minutes, stop by the thread and make comments on other posters
hungry layouts.


Do you have to comment on EVERY layout in the thread?? NO! Just what you have time for. It's considerate to comment on a few when you post a layout to be fed but we all understand how busy our non-scrapping lives can be sometime! If you have one of those days, be sure to stop in on another day and do some extra feeding!

Now, let's get busy . . creating and commenting

By the way, this thread is meant to be fun, please do NOT get upset if you can't comment on every layout, do what you can & enjoy your own work & others!!!

Please limit your layouts to 1-2 a day :)

Check out the links listing on the new site. Help me round out the categories by sharing your favorites. Just fill out the simple form on the new site and I'll get them approved.

I'm still busy sifting through all the links from our Backflip site, so don't worry if one of your favorites from there isn't showing up on the new site yet. I'm double checking to make sure all the links are still live before entering them and trying to make sure the descriptions are complete to make it easier to find what you need.

Thanks for sharing your favorites and blog links with us! ]]> Saturday Night Live mommabyrd2003 http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=32788 Making your own GROUPIES... http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=32787&goto=newpost Mon, 07 Jul 2008 02:32:44 GMT Hi...I love the look of many little elements clustered together (aka Groupies) and I know that there are some lovely groupies available in kits.

Everytime I start to put embellishments on the page I get the feeling that my page is out of balance, that the scale and/or shadows of the embellishment doesn't feel "right".

All I did was save as JPEG and then upload it. It says it uploaded but it doesn't appear in my gallery.

Do I have to make it smaller for it to be able to post? If so, tell me how.

What is SCRAPLIFTING?

A scraplift is basically the act of copying ideas and designs from another persons layout to use in your own pages. Designs or ideas can be copied in whole or in part - You can take the whole thing, or just some aspects of the layout, and use it to make your own.

You may not copy the persons picture, erase portions and submit it as a scraplift. The idea is not to erase bits of another persons layout, but to use it for inspiration - like a sketch. You create a layout using the original as a guide - using a kit (either the same one they used or a different one) and your photos and journaling.

Etiquette:
In your description, give credit to the person and layout you scraplifted.
You cannot use a direct scraplift for a competition - why? Because if you both entered the same competition it would be obvious that the layout was a copy - and the judges my penalise you both - very unfair to the original artist.
When can you call it your own? When you have changed it SUBSTANTIALLY - I am not just talking about different photos and kit, I am talking about changing over one third of a layout - so it does not look like the original. ]]> General Threads for On-Going Challenges mandy@netlive http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=32784 using a template http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=32783&goto=newpost Sun, 06 Jul 2008 16:49:12 GMT I just purchased the Stitch Me Alpha- and I can't figure out how to use the templates!
