A quick note to say that DVDflick worked. I got the video's made - just in a nick of time (bc. I have a full day conference tomorrow). Now my daughter can bring her friend the videos (and scrapbook). DVDflick was amazingly easy compared to other things I tried. Once on the program, I printed the 6 page guide - which explained most of what I needed to know. Two things I had to figure out myself - and am posting here for others who may try this. 1 - on the Configure your Project tab, there are settings for video. If you want to change the resolution/file size (as I did to fit a 45 minute video on a standard dvd), you can adjust the bit rate). 2 - I would recommend on the burning settings (also under configure your project tab), choose to have it burn it to dvd, and verify, and eject. The first dvd I made I only selected burn it and verify. It burned it - ejected, reinserted and played it. But then the dvd tray was locked and couldn't be opened. This is somewhat frequent occurence with disc burning software - which wants to prevent you from accidentally opening the tray before it's done. The only way I could open the tray was to shut the computer, and hit the open disk tray button as it was rebooting. The next video I made, I selected eject when done - and it ejected it. For a while I thought the tray was broken - and tried the usual methods to release - like the paper clip in the tiny hole near the tray. And going to my computer, d:, eject disk. Nothing worked bc. the software was preventing it. Once my disk was ejected - and the software closed, the open and close tray works fine with other programs. Thanks so much. This was a great program. Just curious if convertxtodvd would get me additional features. I can see burning many dvd's for people (we seem to be the videographers of many social gatherings and I'd like to give dvd's to people who were part of the plans). DVDflick worked great - but I don't mind paying a little if it gets me more features. Any thoughts? Thanks so much. You saved me. Lynn.

Lavender -- thanks! And now, for some 3D action: Overview of the kitchen (low quality rendering for this one, sorry!) Looking out across the island: Sitting in the LR, looking in the general direction of the kitchen (the TV will be on the wall unit on the left side of the pic). (You can see the hutch and catch a glimpse of the island from here).: And finally, for kicks, a view from the FR into the LR, head-on: In case you're interested -- I used google sketchup 3D to model the island countertop and imported it into sweethome 3D, where I gave it the texture. There's probably an easier way using sketchup for everything, but I had all of this stuff already in sweethome 3D.

You mean it's like this? I am searching for an answer which I haven't found but in the process, I want to thank you for leading me to something I should have done years ago instead of struggling with hard to see white against white when making tiny fonts to place in Animation Shop! Solution: Changed it in PSP too. ~Urlee~
