Customizing Layout in PSE Make Photo Creation

I have PSE 5.0. I go into the Make Photo Creation. I create a scrapbook page using the specified layouts. I can drop and drag my photos into the layouts. Is it possible to create/customize a layout and save in PSE so that it will pull up under the layouts so that I can drop and drag. I use some of my layouts over and over and have to recreate size, etc, everytime. Looking to create my own layouts for PSE to allow me to drop and drag.

How do you add the template to the photo layout section so that I call pull up my template in the layout.
Currently, I click on:
-Create
-Photo Layout
-Then, I select 8.5X11 size
-Then, select layout. I want to add my layout to this section so that it appears in this box.
Thanks
Maria

  • How do I create a placeholder image in a custom layout?

    I have a custom layout defined for a photo book, and I want to have a box on the layout where I can easily drag/drop a photo from Finder onto each page.
    On my layout, I created a shape and dropped an image into it. This results in the following tooltip on both the layout editor and on the pages using the layout:
    "This image is a placeholder. Drag a new media file here to replace it."
    And with that shape selected, if I go to Format, Advanced, the option "Define as Media Placeholder" *is* checked.
    But when I go to a page using this new layout and attempt to drag a JPEG file on top of the placeholder, a new photo is created on the page rather than replacing the placeholder. This means I have to go set the wrapping, size, placement, etc. of the photo with each page.
    What am I doing wrong?

    Good question. Just figured it out myself. I'm going to quote from http://www.davidebarranca.com/2012/04/ibooks-author-fullscreen-images/:
    In order to successfully transform a picture/movie within a master page into a placeholder you must select it, then 1) Format – Advanced – Define as Media Placeholder. 2) From the Inspector panel, select the Layout inspector and below Layout Object select the Editable on pages using this layout checkbox. If you forget this checkbox, the placeholder won’t work.

  • Where to find my photo creation folder? pse 8??

    I need to
    find this folder and my photo effect folder but I can't even searched it??

    Hi Barbara
    I am also having difficulty locating the Photo Creations folder. I have switched on View Hidden Folders and still no sign of it. Here is a screen capture of
    the folders I have :
    I located the other Styles in the Presets folder and I have copied files into the Styles sub folder. However, when I open PSE8 they are not shown in the Effect fx box.
    This has me baffled and would really appreciate it if you could help me with this one.
    Thanks .... Anne
    Edited to add:    I HAVE FOUND IT!!!   It is in the ProgramData Folder
    I found these awesome instructions:  http://digitalscrapper.com/forums/showthread.php?3294-Install-Layer-Styles-in-Photoshop-El ements-7%968%97Windows
    It is a lot more complicated than copy and paste!!!

  • Can you no longer have a background color for the text box in the new version of hp photo creations

    just updated to the new version of HP Photo Creations, used to be able to have a colored background for the text box - is that no longer possible in this new (not better) version????!!!!! Uuuuuuuuuugh

    Hi Lainey.
    Thanks for asking. We're working on bringing back that feature. In the meantime, here's another way to add text backgrounds: Add a placeable graphic and then click the Arrange button to send it to the back, behind the text.
    That approach also gives you more interesting shapes. The new alignment guides make it a snap to align a graphic with a text box. In the example below (it may take a day for the image to show up here), I also used the new Premium Editing Features to change the color of the graphic.
    P.S. — Applying a thick border to an empty text box (also using the Premium Editing Features) is another way to create a background shape. That has the advantage of letting you pick any color for the box. You'll also find several new text styles at the bottom of the new text menu.
    Let us know if we can help further,

  • How do you print on the back of a greeting card in Photo Creations

    I want to put pictures/text on the back of a greeting card created in Photo Creations, how do I do that?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi again, JaysMother.
    Are you making print-at-home or ship-to-home cards? For Print at Home, you could make a second card that has just the front image and blank inside surfaces (use the Plain White theme). Then feed the paper through again, upside-down. Experiment with plain paper first to make sure everything's lining up the way you want.
    Let us know how it goes!

  • Installing custom shapes in PSE 7

    I have some .csh files I used when I had PSE 4 and have just upgraded. I've been able to successfully edit the meta data files and install layer styles but can't figure out how to access the custom shapes files. I had expected to click on the double arrow from the custom shape dropdown to get to a "Load shapes" menu but I don't see one. I have Windows XP.

    Well, I figured it out by trial and error I guess. Here is the path where you put the custom shapes (Windows and PSE 7.0).
    C:\Documents and Settings\Lisa\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\7.0\Presets\Custom Shapes
    The difference is that we put the layer styles in the path C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\7.0\Photo Creations\shapes.
    Note the difference between "Lisa" and "All Users".
    After doing this and deleting the ThumbDatabase.db3 and MediaDatabase.db3 files, PSE rebuilt them and my custom shapes now showed up. WHEW!!!! What a pain. I guess the confusing part was the difference in that some things are for A user and not All Users.

  • How can I properly save a project in Photo Creations?

    I love photo creations and have fun making my own cards, calendars and editing prints.  When I complete a project I save it in My Pictures Folder (Windows XP ).   However, when I open it up, the picture is too small to make even a 4X6 print. All of the icons that I used are in the folder)  Same thing when I saved it in the Projects.  What am I doing wrong? Thank you.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi jRhonda.
    Thanks for asking. HP Photo Creations uses the small pictures in the project folder to display previews on screen. To print a saved project, open it by clicking the Open button in HP Photo Creations, and then click the Print & Order tab. 
    You can think of the project folder as a big file. When you open it from within the program, HP Photo Creations loads all the little pieces automatically. There's no need to dig through the folder.
    Hope this helps,

  • Two-Page Spread in Photo Creations

    I cannot get a 2-page spread to view in my Photo Book using Photo Creations. Can anybody help please?
    Úna
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi Una.
    Which type of photo book are you trying to make? For ship-to-home books, you should see a pair of facing pages on all types except layflat books, in which the image spans the entire spread.
    If you're making print-at-home photo book pages, you'll see only one page at a time.

  • How do i scan with my Scanjet 4570c with HP Photo Creations?

    i recently upgraded to OS X Lion and my Image Zone software is not supported.  I "upgraded" to HP Photo Creations but this seems like it is a portal to buy pictures.  I just want to scan dox and fotos. How do i do this?
    anyone else experiencing problems with their ScanJet 4570c or other scanners with OS X Lion?

    H Shivnarc.
    If your scanner is supported in OS X Lion, you should be able to scan using the built-in Preview program. Scanning is enabled by a background program called a driver. Lion is supposed to download the driver automatically if it's available. See
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3669
    Said another way, HP Photo Creations doesn't have scanning functions. It's designed to help you make keepsakes with photos you've already loaded. In addition to the commerically produced products you saw, such as photo books and mugs, HP Photo Creations offers items you can print at home, such as enlargements, calendars, and greeting cards. You can see all the home-printing projects by clicking the Print at Home tab on the Catalog screen.
    For further reference, here's HP's US driver download page. It doesn't currently list a Lion driver for your scanner:
    www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html
    So, perhaps not the answer you wanted, but I hope it cleared up the background. You may find a solution by reposting your question as "Need OS X Lion Driver for Scanjet 4570c."

  • Help please HP Officejet Pro 8600 & HP Photo creations

    Hardware:
    iMac running OS X Yosemite latest update
    HP Officejet Pro 2 trays
    I just downloaded HP photo creations and have a layout I am trying to print on 4x6 photo paper. It shows fine onscreen but isn't printing out the way I see it on the screen. Items are getting cut off. I have tried using scale to fit but it is still cutting the pictures off. I tried scale to fit (crop) and it didn't work either. Am I missing something as to why the pictures won,t print as seen in the screen?? The first print I tried was actual size and it and the following print were cutting of the top and bottom of the photos and cutting the photo comments in half or more. What can I do to fix this as the layout on screen is perfect. Very frustrated. Any help would be appreciated as I am trying to print these for Christmas cards. Thanks in advance for any help or light you can shed on the subject.

    Thanks for your perseverance! If the file size is too large, you could open the image in Preview and save it as a JPEG. (Select "Export" from the File menu.) By default, the Mac saves screenshots in the larger PNG format.
