Jumping In!

I have had PSE 2.0 for a long time & only used it to edit photos. I never got in to all of the options available in the program. I love being creative with my computer! I have used Printshop since Version 2 - now at Version 22. I want to learn how to use all of the wonderful "elements" availble in PSE 6.0. It has so many options and end results that it may take me way beyond retirement to get a handle on it all.

I have been watching the tutorials, have found some print tutorials on http://groups/msn.com/digital art 101 that were very helpful. So helpful in fact that I was able to use the "watercolor" on canvas process for my Christmas card this year.

So.o.o.o I will be reading with great interest many of the threads and how-to's. And...at some point in time....I will be able to pass along a useful tip to someone else!

See you at the Forum!

People usually call me "Jan" - I have always had a "project" going - it just moved over to computers the last 10 years! If we need it - I create it - home and work. I am really looking forward to learning how to use all of these great features! Thanks for the warm welcome!
