Finally managed to finish this. I love these challenges as I struggle to pull pages together from scratch. I hope to keep on improving. http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=27501&title=mucky-pup&cat=856

I am enjoying the challenges here. Challenges really help me get layouts done.

I uploaded my layout, but somewhere between saving and uploading, the two sections of stitching (my fasteners) disappeared. I have about 1 1/2 ” of stitching on the upper edge between the tan and striped papers and another 1 12/” of stitching on the bottom edge between the striped and blue papers.

hi :o) so sorry for your troubles…i think i can help! any time anyone has ever had issues uploading to the gallery – it is because of the file size. We have our gallery upload size set to a max of 2mb (which is really huge by gallery standards)…so, if your file is larger than that, it will not complete the upload process. I just peeked at your gallery and noticed that your halloween layout (which i ADORE) is pretty large (though not over the 2mb limit) – so I’m guessing this might be the issue :o) Most of us reduce our layouts to about 600×600 pixels at 72dpi (screen resolution) and save as a JPG file. Most of my layouts that I upload are under 400k – so i think you’ll see that it will be pretty easy to get it under the 2mb limit :o) i truly hope this helps at least a little! here at some point in the future, we will try to put together a quick and easy tutorial for saving layouts at web size/resolution, etc. if you have any more questions – just let us know! THANKS AGAIN…can’t wait to see your layout!

i have been trying to load my challenge layout for 4 days now. it says that the image has successfully loaded but it doesn’t show up anywhere. also, i can only see about a dozen challenge layouts that other people have posted. is there a problem, or is it me? thanks!
