Since March, we have opened the DigiScrap Campus to give classes to scrappers and designers. Right now, only the classes for scrappers is available. The whole program will be of 12 units covering all the bases for using Paintshop Pro and scrapping pages.
This program can be good for new scrappers, now to PSP scrappers, or even for some who are already using PSP to scrap but feel they would like a refresher in addition to great new tips.
Each unit has 3 lessons so each set has 9 lessons. The lessons are in video format with a pdf handout. The first set of lessons addressed (1) layers and shadows, (2) alphas and fasteners (3) color tools and selection tools. Then, this second set covers (1) brush tool (2) text tool (3) ribbon/papers/shadow tricks.
Set 1 (Units 1-2-3) is available here.
Set 2 (Units 4-5-6) is available here.
You can also purchase the bundle (Units 1 to 6) for a saving of 20% off the cost of the two sets purchased separately.
Also, if you are CTing for a store or a designer, you might want to consider this course to help get the most out of your PSP. Designers, if your CT members are using PSP, you might want to encourage them to take this program too!
Great to see some new products to help us all out with PSP! It took me FOREVER to get comfortable with this program, but now I couldn’t live without it. I use the photo enhance feature on most of my pics!
Off topic, I have an idea for a new script. The circular element script is great, but I would love to see an oval element script and perhaps a square frame element script. Would these be too difficult to create?
Greatly admire and appreciate your work. —Cauleen
Thanks for your appreciation.
For the suggestion of a script to make square frame element, i already have the Mitered Corner Script available here: http://creationcassel.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=7_9&products_id=145\
For the oval element, i am still trying to acheive it.
Thanks for suggesting it.
This looks very, very interesting … I am always looking to improve my skills with PSP. Will the course units be geared to a minimum or particular version of PSP?
The course is starting at the beginning so it would cover a lot of the basics that, surprisingly, many users do not know. We are covering mostly what is useful for a SCRAPPER. Another program specifically for DESIGNERS will come later. The lessons are shown with me using PSP 9, but handouts shows differences between versions.
You can see the intro video lesson for the program at the campus, here:
