Just Play'in - (BeetleBosses PSP Learning thread)

Still looking at this thread Cindy.

Did you create the text as 'Selection'?
Also when you Paste it into another picture as a Layer, don't put the marching ants around it.
As long as it's inserted as a layer you can move it.
When putting the marching ants around it, you can select to apply effects, filters or pasting it.
Moving the text in this state duplicates it.

 

Hey Eric http://bestsmileys.com/waving/5.gif

LOL!! I think, we just posted at the same time http://img115.exs.cx/img115/9916/z4dwink.gif

Did ya see the last post I just made??

 

Yes, I saw that post and you did well, although applying another option.
We posted at the same time.

See you later.

 

LOL!
I thought this looked kinda funny.....like the letters are break'in up or something.

Don't know why they didn't show up better. Used the the pic in #246 for the letters.

 

kinda goof'in off with stuff

used a Texas flag for the text.........
(Eric, its a pain getting that text lined up on a picture where ya want it http://bestsmileys.com/computer1/24.gif)

 

work'in on this lesson

Can't figure out how to remove the circle shape...without making the word Belgium pop back to a straight line http://www.foroedonkey.com/vb/images/smilies/pensando.gif

 

Follow these steps.

1. Insert Text (Selection) into an image
2. Copy the Selection text
3. Paste it into a new image as a New Layer
4. Move it to its position

Don't Float the text yet, otherwise it will duplicate.

You've to delete the vector (= object) in your Layer pallette.
Be sure your text is set to Floating and don't apply any effect on it
before the vector object is removed, otherwise you've to go back in your steps.

 

YAYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!



Floating......that was the trick!!

Thanks Eric!!​

 

I'm talking about when I'm on the first picture creating the color of text that I want. Like on the Texas picure....it was a pain try'in to get the letters lined up on the Texas flag the way I wanted them.

I'm able to move the text around the second picture OK.

Are ya get'in what I'm talking about?
http://www.foroedonkey.com/vb/images/smilies/pensando.gif

 

That's the problem about Selection text. Sometimes I've to redo it all over again to get it where I want it to.
Vector text can be easily manipulated, Selection text NOT and Floating has its limitations too.

That's OK then, I wasn't sure what you said back then.

I think I'm getting it.

 

That's it Cindy.

Oh btw, before I'm forgetting it. You could try the same trick (Floating) with the Vector text,
but instead of deleting the object, you'll have to hide it.
Click on the eye in the Layer palette to hide the vector.

 

OK ya lost me there........I'll reread this a few more times........and see what I can come up with a little later



Are ya talking about this lesson

or this lesson

 

Sorry to loose you there.
I'm talking about this lesson, but instead of creating a Floating text, use the Vector text.

Insert an object and apply your text the same way as the lesson above.
Afterwards hide the object and you're done.

 

Ok........I'll give it a try.

Have a good night or morning (whenever you are http://img115.exs.cx/img115/9916/z4dwink.gif)

Talk with ya later, bud http://img118.exs.cx/img118/1691/hug8ok.gif

 

That was pretty easy!

This was partially Alicia creation toohttp://img115.exs.cx/img115/9916/z4dwink.gif

 

one for me

​

 

It's pretty easy to do, but it's also part of the next lesson.
And that won't be so easy, I can assure you that.
Well done Alicia. You'll follow in your mother's footsteps.
Great pictures from you both.

 

Thanks Eric!

Whenever your ready

​

 

Here it is Cindy.

It's not the most difficult, but you'll have to follow the steps carefully.

Have fun with it.

Edit: Updated lesson.

 

That looks cool, Eric!!


I'll give it a try tonight!!

Thanks

 

Well sisI am so far behind I dont know where to begin now lol.I did practice a little on animation shop and made me a tag--didnt do it right I know but at least I got my name on it,been working long days,so not much time to do anything--you are doing great by the way!!!

http://img89.echo.cx/img89/1463/dansen111111111111111211111111.gif

 

Did you put those sparkles on it!!

Too cool!!

I haven't hardly done anything with animation yet........afraid I'll break it or something unless I'm told how to do it.

I know I still owe you the lesson on removing the gray squares.......ya still need that?? I'll get it to ya tonight if you do.

 

I finaly figured that one out,lol,at last.Send me some other lesson of your choice--you can do so many great things!!I print them out and have them right before me as i'm doing them,because if I dont- i forget before i get started lol.any lesson you choose will be great!!
love ya
Rita

 

Try look'in back thro this thread........Eric explains stuff pretty clear.
If you don't understand something let me know, OK??

 

Ya know, instead of printing all of them out.........I usually have my PSP screen open.........and the screen with the lesson open that I'm working on.
That way I can flip back and forth between the two as I'm doing the lesson.

That helps A LOT!!

Really hope, we never lose this stuff!!
