Brag Book Exchange-Snow Day

OneMemory · #1 12-08-2008, 03:39 PM

Christy & I have put together a huge fun kit for this brag book exchange and it's 20% off!! Click on image to go to the store.

With this exchange you will get 10 designer pages plus all the pages submitted by the participants.

PLUS FREE WITH PURCHASE GIFTS FOR A LIMITED TIME

Guidelines: UPLOADING GUIDELINES HAVE CHANGED SO PLEASE READ

* Each participant will submit at least 1 4X6 brag book page but not more than 3 using this kit only (but you may include any commercial use supplies as well). Please put all of your pages on 1 preview page to upload to the gallery to prevent any non-participants from using these pages.
* Sign-ups are requested for this so that we know who is working on pages. Post here to say you are planning on participating.
* Layouts should be created and saved at 4" x 6" and 300ppi starting with a transparent background.
* If you are familiar with creating a quick page in a transparent .png file, please submit it in that format.
* If you are not, we have a couple of tutorials to help you in this area: Paint Shop Pro & Photoshop
* If you are unable to create a .png file, please design your quick page by creating your layout and using a white or black area (whichever is of most contrast to your layout) for the photo placements. Save your layout as a flattened .jpg file at full resolution (unless you are submitting a png file already). Please share this file and then post in this thread that you need help poking the holes for the pictures and I will help do those for you.
* Please name your files as follows to help me track these easier. YourForumName_KitName_bb1.png so as an example, mine would be onememory_snowday_bb1.png.
* Post your preview of your bb pages all on one layout at 600x600 and upload it to the Brag Book Exchange Gallery for all the oooohs and ahhhs!
* I will need the .png or .jpg file at the full 4x6 size for each brag book page you submit. Please do not upload the preview to the QP folder below just the png files.
* ***NEW***: In an effort to get you the albums much quicker after the exchange is over, we're implementing a new way for us to share the files.
- please upload JUST THE FULL PNG FILES to Snow Day BB Exchange Folder
- toward the bottom of the screen you will see an "Upload Files" small window. Click the browse button inside there and navigate to your PNG files and choose that to upload.
* Your computer will then upload the file so it may take a minute or two. After the upload is completed, you will not see anything in this folder even to tell you it was successful but I'll let you know if there's a problem.
* Please post here that you uploaded so I can make sure it came through OK.
* Once the exchange is over, I will figure out who hasn't uploaded or has a problem with their files and when all is good will make it so that you can see all the files that everyone uploads and then you can download them!
* The submission deadline for this round is end of the day on Tuesday, December 23rd.

Thank you sooooooooo much for providing the tutorial links! I don't think I knew there was all that information on GDS! I am not sure I will be able to do this due to time and $$, but I just might have to "justify" doing this! I have really been dragging my feet about actually completing any digital products! Not sure why... I guess I am having a hard time figuring out PSP & PSE (I have both...) but I am getting there....
