Do you have to have special software?

what the difference between scrapHD and photoshop?

Stupid question I know, but what is ScrapHD?

Nope! It is all web based, nothing to download or save on your computer! It is pre-loaded with thousands of backgrounds and embellies from 14 of the top paper manufacturers and 4 of ACOT's own digi-designers

ScrapHD is what I affectionately call a "dumbed down photoshop" you still get many of the features that you get in photoshop, but it is WAY easier to do with ScrapHD!

can you add more digital items to it? Does it work with the digital stuff you already have?

ScrapHD is a new digital scrapbooking application that you can do right from ACOT! You can upload your photos, choose from thousands of backgrounds and embellishments, save your scrapbooks, and share them all across the web.

Thats a good question and one I'd be interested in hearing

deerewife wrote:can you add more digital items to it? Does it work with the digital stuff you already have?

Yes, you can as just one of the Club Member benefits ($9.99/mo or $99/yr.) you can upload any jpg. or .png file which is awesome cuz you can utilize that digi-stash

I Love this question, because it isn't hard at all, its super easy! You literally drag and drop your photos/embellishments/backgrounds onto the canvas and resize/edit with the click of a mouse. You don't have to learn any complicated layering techniques or anything either. You literally highlight an item and push the 'backwards' or 'forwards' key and you can place things in different layers.

This is without a doubt one of the easiest ways to digiscrap you'll find

Do you have access to all the digi items as a member, or do you have to purchase additional kits/embellishments/papers as you create?

As a member you have UNLIMITED access to all of the designs - there are no extra fees once you sign up.

AND..................... ACOT will be emailing a $5 ACOT Gift Certificate to those who sign up for the annual membership during the crop

is it like pse, or is it much easier. I know I love the papers that can be use.

WAY easier...and when i say WAY, i really mean WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY

This sounds similar to how ScrapBlog works but better. Easy digi, that's the only kind for me!

I've been playing around with it the last couple days and am thinking about buying it after the chat tomorrow. Will you add different products during the year and will the ones that are available now be available forever?

Can you just pay monthly or do you have to pay for the whole year at once...
