RE: Making a new collage in MEP

Yes I do - I think it is better to use a real example to give a good idea of what the final collage will look like, just as with the Magix supplied ones, then just have the example with the empty placeholders. John Hi John, I've been

Hi Terry . . . . Do you still make 'realistic' icons and previews before you replace with PH.jpg? . . . Yes I do - I think it is better to use a real example to give a good idea of what the final collage will look like, just as with the Magix

RE: Making a new collage in MEP

Hi Terry . . . . The puzzle over your issue remains then! . . . . No puzzle - I did not have a permanent folder with the numbered files as you have so I used what what provided by Magix so as to make adding collage effects as universal as

RE: Making a new collage in MEP

RE: Making a new collage in MEP

Hi John, Well, maybe it's a 2015 change. But I'm successfully using many colllages whose original files are in various (permanent) locations, not in the \Collages folder. For example some were made using some of those 40 files I uploaded, which

Terry, since you seems to be doing more of these than the rest of us, could you open a new thread in the Discussions part and do this? Even better, post the methods under tutorials? Does anyone read those tutorials? Here are the detailed steps: 1.
