Hi!
New to this forum and digi scrapping.

How do you put a png element (kit title apple of my eye) into a template?


Does the elenment need to be on a layer already included on the template? I didn't think it would fit in the circle so I dumped the circle title layer in the trash and attempted to place it abovve the photo layer. The title appeared, but it was on a white background. I thought a png element would not have a white background

I;m working with PC, vista. PSE6

Thank ou all in advance

Irene
 
You just need to make sure that you use an element on top of a layer that you've already worked with...if that makes any sense. So like if you are adding a peice of paper to a psd layer, THEN you can add something on top of it. I always fill in the psd layers, then go back and add stuff to the layer I want to work with.
 
it sounds like you are dragging in the wrong direction . . . you need to have the element open in the main window and drag it down to your LO thumbnail in the Photo Bin.

(or the opposite way . . . can't rightly remember LOL)
 
Hi Irene!
First, let me thank you for buying my kit! :) I don't have PSE6, so I'm not sure on that part. But I will get someone to help with that if you need. The 'apple of my eye' is a .png, so it has a clear background just like all the elements from that kit. It totally should be able to work just like you want! Please feel free to ask more questions here or PM me!

Click to expand...

the first method is the correct way for PSE 6 :thumbup:
 
Hi little kiwi,
I'll try this, I so appreciate you taking the time to help me. I'll you know what happens.

Enjoy your day. It's going to be raining in Minnesota today so I'm ecstatic - love fall and winter.

Sweet hugs,
Irene
 
You could also try just copy/pasting instead of dragging (I do this sometimes, depending on the element)...

Hit Ctrl+A (select all), then Ctrl+C (copy), then move over the the template and hit Ctrl+V (paste).

HTH!
