HI, I am totally new at photoshop! I just got PSE4.0 for Christmas & it is really easy to do the basic editing on the photos but I have no clue how to try to do a simple scrapbook page. I have been searching for some tutorials & have not been able to find them. Does anyone know where I can find any tutorials for sb pages for PSE4.0? If not can anyone give any basic info that I can try to start with?

Thanks for any help!!

Here is the link to create a page from scratch with PSE3.

There isn't much difference in creating the basic page between PSE3 and PSE4, so it is a good place to start. You could also join in the crops in the chatroom to get help from many of us, and maybe learn a few tricks not listed in the tutorials yet.

I use PSE4, so keep posting any questions you have

Thanks for helping, I have tried that tutorial & I just can't seem to find the layer area. on the right side of my screen I have General Fixes, Lighting, Color, and Sharpen. Am I in the wrong area? I have a layer header at the top but when I click that everything is grayed out & can't be used. What am I doing wrong?

You need to be in the "standard edit" section.
I think you might be in the "quick fix" area?
Let me know... and I'll check out my program here to see if I can get more info for you

Okay... Just checked it...

Click on "Standard Edit" in the top right-hand corner.
This will take you to where you can create a layout.
