.pse files? in version 5?

[MarieBoyer]

I think this is the extension used for these animated pages/creations. Well, I made one. Now what do I do with it? So folks can see it? Do I upload to Smugmug? Can I simply email it and people will see the pages turn when they click on it?

Thanks for helping me out on this rather basic question.

you can export it as a pdf, save it to web (File>Save for Web) or any other way to getit into a common format like jpg, pdf, etc.

The .pse is the source file - save it as an archive -

My question may have been even more basic. I have a creation that has the pages turning on my screen. I can save that as a .jpg file and someone else, who does not have Elements, opens it and will be able to see the pages moving?

Which of the animations were you using that finished up as a pse file? I haven't run into that one yet - the animated galleries I did try would have to be uploaded to a personal web space as they're html and flash files. Although there are likely other things you could do with it won't be as simple as turning it into a jpeg file - jpegs won't animate.

That is what I thought, Tony. My creation is a multiple page layout that, as you click to the next page, it looks like the pages are turning. I am making it for my brother-in-law for a grant application. He needs to send it to the person who is determining whether to award him the grant for his program. How can I share it, now that I have created it?

My original question was not that clear. My apologies to both you and Grafi.

Marie: Now I've found it - you can send the pages several ways. File Export will let you save the individual pages as jpegs (so a three page layout would give you 3 jpegs). Alternately the file>email option would let you send as a pdf file (which would work like a simple slide show) or as html. Or you can create a slide show with transitions and save as a wmv file. Probably other things you can do with pse files but these are the ones I first found!

PS - the page turning thing seems to be built into Elements and I'm not sure how you could reproduce it. Maybe there's a way with pdf files but I haven't found it yet.

Thanks so much Tony! The page-turning looks great. Wish I could re-create it outside of Elements.

Your help is much appreciated. Thanks for taking the time!
