Newly join has a question about using SBM

[Pink Lollipop]

Hello all,

Can SBM publish as wall paper? How can I do it. I am a total newbie, trying the trial version. Thank to enlighten me.

do you mean a single sheet 8x8 or 12x12 ...then yes

just open your paper on a new page...stretch to fit the page and publish

Thanks for reply

Is my 'fault' for not explaining clearly I mean how can I publish as Wallpaper on my laptop (not printing out)? Cos I love to create wallpaper with my family photo and place it up. Thanks for advise.

to make a screen saver wallpaper?

just publish as a jpeg and use the published image

[Karin]

Yes - you can publish your page as an image by choosing File > Publish To > Images. You can use the resulting .jpeg file for your computer wallpaper.

You can also choose to publish your page as a screensaver for your computer screen. Simply choose File > Publish To > Screensaver.

Another 'problem' now

Hello,

I manage to publish as Wallpaper but is kinda of 'out of shape'. I am trying by using the trial template (the oldie look with the butterflies), attach a wedding photo. After publish and set as background. It stretch the template and photo 'longer' so it don't look 'normal' and good now. Did I miss any step or this is because of the size of this template? Thanks for advise.

I have tried this . Make the dimension of the page you like to be the wallpaper, poportional to the dimension of your screen. What I mean is don't make 8x8 or 12x12 page, but make a rectangular page poportional to the dimension of your screen, hopefully this will stretch ok.

Thanks for reply

I did but too 'bad' I am not familiar with my laptop 'correct' dimension. I did change that a bit but still look little 'out' compare with my actual photo. So I guess need to 'play' a bit longer to figure out the 'right' way. Thanks alot of help. Guess I can close this 'case file' now. I have a 'new' questions so will post a new thread.

Hi Lollipop,

If you right-click anywhere on your Windows Desktop, you should see a Display Properties dialog. In the Setting tab, you will see an adjustment for your screen resolution in width/height in pixels. Make your scrapbook page the same size (in pixels). See attached

Hope that helps
