New user -- where do I find the backgrounds??

Did you try copying the files that you want into the gallery.

[Heather]

It worked! I copied them straight into the gallery folder and was able to get a background into the SBM program. Thanks so much, everyone, for your help. Happy scrapping!

I add them by going to MY DOCUMENTS - SCRAPBOOKMAX - GALLERY - IMAGES and then choose where I would like to put them and make a new folder for my stuff to go.

YAY!!! This answer help me sooo much! I have had the program for months and months and have been so frustrated I bought sets from other companies for backgrounds. I just tried this answer and found my backgrounds here. I am so happy now! Thank you!

[Tweety]

Pleased to hear. Sbm is the best scrapbooking program and to be able to add kits from other sources is great.

I would like to use some of the backgrounds like scraps to use as matting, etc. Is it possible to do this, or can they only be used as the whole page?

When you drag and drop them into max you can do just about anything to them.
