:::Using
a template with your design:::
To add your design to a template:
Click on an image for a template of the right size
If you put your scanned image into the same file you should be able to see it in a layer behind the template. Image
Resolution
Images made can be scanned or photographed with a digital camera for further work in a CAD package. Usually 150dpi (dots per square inch) will give you a good colour copy at normal print size - anything larger takes up a lot of memory. Images for the Web or e-mail are even smaller at 72 dpi and usually saved as a gif or jpg format.. So when you are working on your image on screen keep a copy at 150 resolution tiff for yourself and make a second one smaller - 72dpi jpg/gif in order to send to the workshop. Dimensions of the files sent to workshop should be the same AA the downloaded template gif files. This means your image will print
onto a A4 sheet at 72dpi and it will measure approx.:
Goddess - 8cm x 12cm or width 230 x 340 pixels Heroine - width - 18.5cm x 18.5cm or width 530 x 530 pixels Women's work - 22.8 x 18.3cm width 645 x 520

| You
can do all you offline design work on paper if you wish and scan/photograph
the results for sending before each work shop session. However for those
of you who would like to use on screen tools here are some useful suggestions
for using Photocopy. (However I am not an expert and I would advise using
a good teaching program - The Mac Academy CD-ROM is excellent) However there
is a page of brief notes available on Photoshop
There is an example of stages for the use of templates in Examples
