I have noticed lately that there are lots of LO's with pretty child and female art 'dolls'. (don't know what else to call them. They do look AI generated but I wonder how to go about 'making them'. I do occasionally use Deep Dream Generator but don't know how to go about making characters.

I spend a lot of hours at the computer doing CT'work' and find that I need to get up and move. How do you exercise or not? I have had a knee replacement on the left knee and now the right knee is showing signs of arthritis. Rather than go through another replacement and wait 18 months. I have...

First I usually use stock photos for my CT work. However sometimes I really like the composition and keep the 12x12 psd and png as a Quick page which I then can use for some of the baby books I have created for family. Do you ever do that?

A long while ago I was making freebies and QP's for a site owner. She had one pet peeve that I could not seem to follow. She didn't like any elements to go off the page. A corner cluster had to have full elements, no halves or partials, borders could not have lace off the side leaves off the...

I have noticed that Cheryl, Trudy and Chris have these lovely new avatars that have a painted look to them. Where do you get that action? Wouldn't it be nice if one of our designers could come up with an action like that? It would be so handy to be able to change a photo from Pixabay to that...

The thrust of this challenge is to present your photo/scene within an odd shape. No squares or rectangles. You may use as many photos as you wish. The shapes may be geometrical or otherwise. For photo-less pages place your text so that it follows the odd shape. You may frame, stroke or use...

I usually print using Persnickety Prints but they seem to have stopped printing 12x12 size. Is there a place in Canada or the USA you would recommend that doesn't charge an arm and a leg plus your first born?

Member’s Challenges: All Curled Up Hi folks The forum had an interesting thread in Scrap Chat about techniques we haven’t done in a while. That brought curled corners or edges to my mind. Curled edges are a super way to make stacked papers with pretty clusters tucked between and behind them...

I was browsing the store today and realized that we have oodles of designers new and long-timers! I think there is just about every style there is. And think about how many ways they can be combined. My mind boggles.

Anyone else have PSE2022 and the Artistic Effects not working? That was the main reason I updated. I have sent out feelers to the Adobe community and it seems I am not the only one.
