I need A very sloooow CD tutorial to guide me like the way we guide a baby, or child when is learning to write, we take his hand and teach him how to make letters. Is there such a thing in the market, or perhaps one of our great digitizers could do one and sell it? Remember very very slow pace. Thank you for your help.

I find it I have to work through things slowly as well before I can get my head around computer things. What I do is sneek into the study and use hubbies desk top and my netbook together. I have the instructions/help screen open on one and the program open on the other. That way I can keep rewinding the instructions while using the program until I can understand what is going on! I do get there in the end, even if it does take me a while.

Mary, you can open Embird Studio and resize the frame to half screen and open the video and do the same. Keep them side by side. Now start the video, use the pause button as often as you need to and repeat the steps in Embird, go back to the video, let it play the sequence again if need be, do an other bit and go to Embird to do the same. Take it as slowly as you need to and before you know it you've made a design.
I don't know when you bought Embird, a number of the newer features might be missing in your version.
I like the free tutorials on clipartopolis to start with.

Mary I love that....To resize your frame, look in the upper right corner where your "x" is to close your website, just to the left is a square. If it is single, click on it and it will resize for you to a smaller size, if 2 small squares are showing, then it has been resized already and what you will need to do is take your mouse to any of the corners and click on the corner you will see arrows going horizontally or vertically, or diagonally. Drag the page in toward the middle of the screen until you have the size you want to work with. You can do this for any website or page that is showing. :) Just experiment with it, that is how most of us learned. Hope this has helped a little.
Hugs, Terre
