You mean aside from my two articles, "How to edit DVD menu templates with Photoshop Elements" and "Customizing a DVD Template, Step by Step", which you can find here, Marcos? http://muvipix.com/products.php?maincat_id=7&subcat_id=7 (Although written for Photo Elements, the pr...

Nice work, Ron! You make those concepts very easy to understand.

Very exciting, Bruce! I'll be rooting for her!

What silly good fun, Greg!

According to what I read about Encore, it is possible to have an adjustment layer in your DVD menu template.

But I tend to play closer to the vest, Marcos. So I usually keep it as simple as possible.

Thanks, Bob. After researching some of Adobe's help documents, I can only say for sure what Adobe says: That the engine that generates the background of a DVD is not the same as that used to generate the DVD menu highlights. So there is clearly a "highlight safe" range -- but I've yet to f...

Hi, Mike! How cool that you've found us too!

Yep. Only the highlights have given me trouble.

It's beginning to seem like we're now doing this of our own free will.

That's really amazing footage from a non-video camera!

But I still don't think, even for under $100, I'd trust a Ziplock bag to keep my camera dry in a pool!

Very nicely shot, Tiny! I think you've definitely got a great eye for cinematography. And did you shoot it and star in it too? That's tough to pull off with any effectiveness -- but you seem to have done it very well! Sorry you missed our spring video contest. But I sure hope we'll see you represent...

Well, as everyone here probably knows, I do a family yearbook every year, recapping highlights from our past 12 months' adventures. For me, half the fun is coming up with a format or theme for it. For instance, since it's a school yearbook, maybe you want to make it look like an actual book opening ...
