The Move* |
|
We are still in the process of moving
things over here to the domain so if you can't find it email us or
make sure to check back as we add new things almost every
day. We now have a "mailing list/newsletter" that
I will be issuing each month with the various updates and
additions to the site. You can sign up for it at Egroups.
Below this summary are more detailed info about what you read in
the summary. I am new to this type thing so I will be
experimenting with it a little until I find a format that you and
I are comfortable with for issuing updates.
If
you just joined and were not with me at the last update I recently
got my own domain for the PSP Toybox and we are still moving from
the BIZLAND
site. The move is slow and I apologize for that but I have
all kinds of real world junk going on right now and haven't had as
much time as I would like to work on sites. :o(
Be sure to wander around and check out the
changes! On the main page at PSP Toybox I have added little
"fun facts" for the alt-text on the splat images.
Some are puter related some aren't but they are fun to see
!! :o) |

The News* |
|
Another
virus/worm is on the lose. This one is supposed to be worse
than the "love bug" that millions of people got
"bit" by. This one comes with showing RESUME
and/or the name JANET SIMMONS in your subject header so for those
of you doing freelance and looking for freelance work please use
EXTREME CAUTION with any mailings that you may receive pertaining
to resume's or job searching. This one is bad guys so be
careful. You can get the latest updates about it at ZDNet
and/or your AV protection software site and make sure you update
on a regular basis !! That's it for news at this
point. I am gathering info and trying to come up with
interesting and "happening" things to add each month to
this section. If you would like to contribute anything
just YELL!! |

*What's
New on the site* |

I have added to several sections of the site. For the
Stain glass lovers, I have added a ton of black and white images
suitable for using to make some really pretty stain glass piccys
with. The bunny is a thumb of one of the images that is new
to the page. Head over and check it
out!

Added several new links to some really kewl tutorials on both the IMAGE
effects page and the TEXT
effects page. I also started dividing up all of the pages,
green, red, blue, etc. are now split up in to 2-3 pages so that
the pages load a little quicker. Added a new section for
links to background
tutorials as well. Only one page is up at present but hope to get the second page up shortly. If
there are any that you would like to add just let me know and be
happy to add it. Check out our very own Patz new tutorial
which I thought was just a really kewl idea. Windchimes
with PSP. Existing pages newest links to tutorials
will show a image like this:

Started a FAQ's page. Still in
the VERY beginning stages. But hope to have it done soon ! I
only have the list of questions that at the moment but wanted some
feedback on the questions and what questions you would like to see
there ! This portion will also contain some general
tips for PSP as well. You can submit a tip and have it added
to the page with a link to your page as well if you like.
Just contact me for
info.

** Todays Tip** |
|
To
adjust space between your text letters you can use the KERNING
options in the TEXT DIALOG BOX. Negative numbers move closer
together Positive numbers move text apart Auto allows PSP to
"whing it" lol. Click the thumb to see larger
view.

* What's new in Newbieville?* |
|
Have
most of it moved over to the domain with the Toybox. I am
still contemplating a domain for Newbieville all of it's own but
right now, financially it just isn't doable. I seem to
always have to many "irons in the fire" lol You
would think I would know better huh? LOL In regards to
this situation I would like to extend a heart filled HUGE THANK
YOU to all of you on my list !! Most of all to AMY,
TRACE, DARLENE, SUSAN, PETAH and of course the GERM (aka Jeremy,
kermit etc) roflmao. OH ! And Annabell of course ! <eg>
These guys have been a huge help with my list. I have been
so busy with "real world" stuff and they have really
just went out of their way to
help me and I can't thank them enough !!

I did get one link back image made for Newbieville Residents if
you guys are still needing a link back image. I hope to have
a couple more up sometime soon so that you will have some
different ones to choose from. Just RIGHT CLICK and choose
SAVE AS option. I will add it to the link
back page with the ones from the Toybox.

and Ends** |

Planning at some point to add a font
section to the site. Had originally planned to do it this time
around but obstacles didn't permit it ! :o(
Another part I have started to add it a GLOSSARY of sorts.
Mostly for newbie's that need help with all the "techno
babble" that comes with puters and the internet. Will
keep you posted of things as they change and I welcome ANY and ALL
suggestions, comments, insults, or abuse that you might want to
throw at me where the site is concerned ! Just EMAIL
ME and let me have it !! ROFL
