Chinalin Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Well hello to everyone. I am hoping that I will have a lot of contact here, as I am sure I am going to need it. I am new (in fact more than new, if you can be in negative space!) to digital scrapbooking. In fact so new that I have not really gotten started yet. I have purchased and installed PSE 11, and have a neighbour who was planning to help me out. But her version of PSE is way outdated, and she has got stuck trying to work out #11. So, I am sure that I will be asking a lot of questions until I get the hang of this new interest of mine. I am a retired single lady, who lives in Albany, on the south coast of Western Australia, a very beautiful place to be! I have three grown sons, two of them married, with kids, so I am a lucky Grandmother to a bunch of little kids! Two step-grandchildren, and three genetic grandies. So lucky!!

KFiasco Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Hello, Welcome, I have 2 pieces of advice for you. Don't get overwhelmed with PSE 11. Take a deep breath and ask away. This is the greatest collabrative place with so many friendly people to help. You will be amazed at how fast someone will give you some advice.

Chinalin Posted June 7, 2013 Author Share Posted June 7, 2013 Hi again to you all. Thank you for all the welcoming wishes. I am looking forward to getting into this fascinating new interest. I have friends who do real-world scrapbooking, but it has never appealed to me. But the digital version is so very different. So, sit back and wait for many questions, I am sure!! Have a great weekend. Chinalin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be happy to purchase the videos if I thought that they would help me with version 11. My friend over the road has PSE 5 and she is lost by my version!! Let me know what you thing.
