Paint Shop Pro Project
Make A Snowglobe
 
Since this is our first group project, I'd like to say a few things before we begin.  I don't know any more about PSP than most of you.  So I see this as OUR way to experiment and learn.  I find the best way to learn is to try, and if we all try the same thing at the same time...well, we are sure to work out all the kinks that way!  I created a new message board called Group Projects where we can grumble & complain, ask & answer or hoot & holler about our efforts.  So let's roll up our sleeves and start with similar tutorials.  For the record, I claim absolutely NO credit for writing these...the authors were much more knowledgable people than I!  I'm quite certain that with the many intelligent & creative members of royalty here at The Clip Art Palace, WE will create beautiful globes and become PSP savvy in our own right!
 
So...let's have fun working & creating together. 
I can't wait to get started!!!
 
 
What you need:
Paint Shop Pro (Download FREE Trial here)
WinZip or another zip software
(You can download the WinZip evaluation version for free!)
* An image to put inside your globe
* A Snow or Sparkle Tube (optional)
 
An image and snow tube are provided in the 1st Intermediate tutorial.
 
 
Let's Begin!
 
 
Pick one of the tutorials listed below to start with.  You might want to take a look at each one before you chose the one you want to work with.  If you get stuck, check the "Resources" below to see if help is there.  If that doesn't do it, just hop on over to the Group Projects message board and leave a cry for help in the Snowglobe thread.  Someone will hear it and come running to your aid soon.  Of course, the one yelling the loudest and most often will probably be ME!

Tips:
  • Save as you go, so you can go backwards if you need to.
  • Remember...the UNdo feature is your very best friend.
  • First PSP project?  Use Pati's COMPLETE snowglobes to start and just worry about inserting your graphic and/or text.

Have Fun!
