you have a few choices about where you can store the pix that you'll use when creating templates.

  1. the kJams Preferences folder: [/Preferences/myPix/...]
  2. your "home" folder: [/~/?/...]
  3. your "kJams" folder (where the "kJams Library" folder resides): [/kJams/TemplatePix/...] note: this is just a shortcut for [/~/Music/kJams/...]

in all cases you should make a sub-folder to store your pictures, call it what you will, perhaps "pix". for the "home" folder option, i suggest you put it in a sub-sub folder, eg [/~/Pictures/kJams/...] (that's why i had a ? in the example above)

you should put your pictures into the sub folder. you can call the folder anything you want. in the above examples i called it "myPix", "..." or "TemplatePix", but you can call it whatever you want

then make a new "small text" and change the text to say the temlate string (in brackets above) followed by the name of the file. get it?

Example:

  1. go to your home folder
  2. in there, go to your music folder
  3. in there, go to your kJams folder
  4. in there, make a new folder called "my pix"
  5. put some pictures in that folder. they can be of any type, they do NOT need to be only PICT files. eg: logo.png
  6. in Producer, add a new "small text"
  7. edit the text so it says "[/kJams/my pix/logo.png]" not including the quotes
  8. save the template
  9. delete the current blob
  10. apply the template you just saved
