    G`day Folks,

    Creating backgrounds using your image manipulation software requires a good knowledge of the tools within the software so that you can plan how you want to go about the job. Also a good knowledge will have you aware of the limitations of the software and therefore possibly other software can be brought into play to finish the job.

    My apologies for tackling this subject back to front by posting the print process, or the last phase, last week........should have done it all the other way around.....:scratchchin:

    Oh well .....not to worry.....you`ll get the gist of it all I reckon.

    This tutorial is done on my software of choice......PhotoFiltre 7.......it`s free and basic compared to some of the other powerhouse software available, however I feel it`s up to the job for a plodder like me.

    I race through the tutorial in an effort to get the job done and basically highlight what can be done, so you may need to stop the video and back track a couple of times to focus on what I`ve done in some cases. Quite simple tasks can run into quite a lot of time when explaining for the first time, so apologies for the speed of the whole thing.

    Anyway enjoy the video and I hope I have armed you with some inspiration to have a crack at it yourself.

    That was an excellent tutorial :thumbup:, as you say, it needs more than one look but even a thicko like myself understood some of it first time of looking, cheers Gormo.
