PSE 7 adding digi files to their content

[rusty rake]

Wish Randy was here! Anyone figure out how to add digi papers or elements to their 'content' files? Just finished reorganizing ... now on to 'what if I could see my digi stuff in the edit content window' ???

This is what Rusty would like to be able to do..Since I dont have PSE program, I wouldnt even know how to do this. Im sure one of you ladies will help her.

... as I haven' been able to figure out how to get my personal 'digi' stuff into the 'Adobe Elements' files???

Thanks for the reply...

I wouldn't recommend doing that, Rusty. Your software will become sluggish to the point of frustration. The more you load into the program, the slower it gets.

I keep all of my digital kits (including brushes) on an external hard drive and just open them as I need them in order to keep all of my computer resources available.

That said, copy the content you want to add and navigate to the folders using this path:

In Vista the path is:
Start > Computer > Local Disk (C) > ProgramData > Adobe > Photoshop Elements > 7.0 > Photo Creations >

In Windows XP the path is:
Start > My Computer > Local Disk (C) > Documents and Settings > All Users > Application Data > Adobe > Photoshop Elements > 7.0 > Photo Creations >

from there, you can paste the content into the folders labeled: backgrounds, text, etc.

Thanks Sara... appreciate your advice! LOL I already reorganized my files and had to redo them... but got some great info while looking for information here. I kinda thought it might be a mistake, but while it may be a little easier, the thumbnails aren't big enough for me anyway (even if I reset to the larger ones). Still taking classes and reading the PSE7 manual ... baby steps! LOL
