Are old messages gone?

[jesshen]

I was wondering if the Scrapbooking section lost a bunch of older posts... seems like it has happened a few times this past year. I was looking for some old posts and they are gone. I tried the archive search, too.

Hi Jessica

There is a setting if you click on "User CP" at the top of the forum window. One of the setting is to see all previous messages. Let us know if they reappear.:)

Jessica ...

They should all be there if you follow Mary's instructions ... but a search should have shown them anyway.

What is it you are looking for ??

Yes, thanks, Mary & Wendy, turning on that option worked. I don't know why the search function didn't show them?

Wendy, I was looking for what I thought was a thread about ribbons and bows... am interested in making some digital satin ribbon. Are there any tutorials for making bows, as well? I am making a gift album and thought it would be a nice accent.

Thanks,

Jessica

Hi Jessica ..

Here is a tut for making ribbons ... you can vary it to make satin. Just use a slight gradient on it and then add a little noise.

... and here is one for making a bow ... its written for photoshop so you will need to adapt it:

Let me know if you get stuck :)
