I've set the dpi to 72 and I'm saving as a jpeg, but no matter what I do to the quality slider of the jpeg save dialog box, my layout stays at 2.1 mb, which of course is way too large for posting here at DD. I've never had the experience of not being able to shrink the size to something manageable. I tried cropping the image all around in case there were pieces of paper sticking out that were adding to the size, and I've tried deleting all the layers that weren't visible. But something about this file is huge and won't be tamed. Any ideas? ]]> General Digital Talk cheska99 http://www.designerdigitals.com/digital-scrapbooking/community/general-digital-talk/16401-help-me-mystery-please.html http://www.designerdigitals.com/digital-scrapbooking/community/general-digital-talk/16395-scrap-hire-protocol.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 13:12:38 GMT Hi there, So, I do most scrapping for myself and gifts.. but a lot of people want me to make them books for money.... i know when purchasing kits etc., I see a drop down for professional but what if I already bought a kit for the regular price, how can I go back and pay the prof. price?

Also, Where can I give credit - on the back of the book? For my dd's book where it was just for me.. I wrote on back of shutterfly book:

I am trying to nail down my Christmas Card idea and hope that it works. I am using one of Pattie Knox's templates (snowflake). I put a very deep navy blue textured paper as the bottom layer (Jen Wilson Blue Attitude from the New Attitude Kit). I have the Epson R2400 printer. For now, I am printing on Ultra Premium Presentation Matte Paper. When my print came out the blue was so DEEEEEP you could not see any of the texture. I'm sure there is a better way, but I am playing with the opacity to just try to lighten it up. It sure doesn't look like it does on my monitor. Also, my printer menu gives me the option to let the printer manage the colors or Photoshop. I am using CS 3and it appears that by selecting Photoshop to manage the colors it is slightly better. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make this beautiful paper stand out?

Thanks,

Kim ]]> General Digital Talk kimmanders http://www.designerdigitals.com/digital-scrapbooking/community/general-digital-talk/16389-printing-deep-navy-blue-textured-paper.html http://www.designerdigitals.com/digital-scrapbooking/community/general-digital-talk/16387-digi-crop-midwest.html Thu, 19 Nov 2009 22:01:55 GMT One of the things I miss the most about paper scrapping is getting together with others and getting some face to face time.

One of the things I miss the most about paper scrapping is getting together with others and getting some face to face time. The chats on DD are great, but it still gets a little lonely.

Anyone know of Photoshop groups that are gathering in person to work on pages in the Northern Illinois region? Or is anyone interested, I'd be glad to open my home or make arrangements for a facility if anyone was interested in the same thing.
