Quickpages Tutorial 4: Manipulating Photos


It's easy to make quickpages with one photo. You just put your photo in, right? Well, that's what you do first of all but you might be able to make the page much better by cropping the photo so that you only use part of it. This tutorial shows you an easy way to do that and also illustrates the different effects you'll get. You will also learn to make a big difference to your page by adding just a few embellishments. We'll do more on making the page your own in a later tutorial.

Here's a photo of me on Bournemouth beach:
