I knew about the transparent option but didn't know how to do it. I think you told me where to find it, too. Lisa has told me about layers and I act like she just sang the Star Spangled Banner backwards! I'm like, "Huuuuh?" Corel doesn't use layers, or they're called objects instead. While manipping, I've added separate pieces of images from other files to the main image and my little workshop area calls them objects. > > > See ya around, even if you can't hang around long. :( > > > ~HT Nooo, tomorrow I work 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. and then I get to do some walking to the post office in 95 degree weather. Probably won't be home till after 5 p.m. Actually, my next day off is Saturday where I'll be doing last minute Comic Con shopping! I hate the feeling that I know by Wednesday, July 16, I'll forget to bring something! Grrrr! Brinatello
