Producer/Adding Graphics

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" (click "templates->apply->small text")
7. edit the text so it says "[/kJams/my pix/logo.png]" not including the quotes
8. save the template
9. now to see what it looks like, pick the template name from the Video menu
10. when done viewing, pick "hide showscreen" to go back to editing mode
11. when you're done, do a "Save Database" in the file menu, this will save your scratch song.
