Thanx for the welcome! Do I need to put a link to my photo gallery below my name like you all have?
Thanx!

The copy the URL ..

Go into User CP>Edit Signature
Type in what you want it to say
Highlight the words

Thanx Julie...
I am a novice and sure am not use to forums in general..I hope I post in the right places and all......I am usually too busy here at the ranch for hanging out on here but I can see I will be spending alot of time reading all your posts and viewing all the pictures... Your pix are quite NICE as well Julie! Beautiful! I just posted in the Beginner forum on how to add a link below my name like everyone has (but me):confused:

Welcome,
You will soon get addicted & want to learn more all day. You might not find the time to feed all of your animals. It will be nice to see Colorado and your ranch through your eyes.

ya well, I do already find myself putting things off for a bit longer since I got PSE.... I still am not getting anywhere on this project... my layers are coming out too dark...not like the example in the tutorial... in the example it shows the different layers as being , starting from the middle smallest square, dark, light , dark, light , dark.. my layers get darker each time I add the drop shadow.... even AFTER the drop shadows, its still too dark... wonder if I should try SCREEN instead od Multiply..why does it say use Multiply OR Screen ..............I'll try again now from the beginning.... I feel really stupid as I am feeling this is a simple task eh?? haha at the first step when it says activate your TOP layer..does this mean ALWAYS the Top layer ?? OR the top of each layer as they get larger meaning the top layer, green layer , gold layer, and brown layer? I hope I am explaining it right... let me try again...geez.... :mad:

[christellf]

I haven't got to try it again. maybe tomorrow afternoon. I would try screen this time & I am going to read info more carefully.
