Girls I have never made a digi layout. I see so many beautiful ones and just pray that someday I can make one. I have PhotoShop 5 but although I have had some help, i still don't understand it. Well today I saw this beautiful
digi kit and bought it. It was only 3.50 so I could not pass it up. Anyway I downloaded it but now it sits in my documents zipped. How do I unzip it? After the 4th and I have some current photos I will try to play with it and try to go over some notes I have for PS5 and see if I can figure something out. But in the meantime can you help me by walking me through the unzip portion of this. thank you so much

What I do is right click on the zip file and select "extract here" and it should put it in the same folder that you have the zip file in...hope that helps! :)

If you have an unzip program on your computer, then just double clicking on it will start the unzip process. If you have a Windows PC it probably has a program called winzip.exe on it. You can do a search and see if it finds it. If you don't have an unzip program, then you can download one. There are several free ones like peazip and 7zip. There is also one called winrar that is good, but it isn't free - except you can just do the free trial for now.

Like Ann said, just double click. With mine that brings up the "unzip Wizard" that walks you right through it.

Have fun trying digi! But don't forget you can also just print out the papers & such to use on paper layouts if you want. :)

That "unzip Wizard" is the program winzip.exe that I mentioned. Hopefully it will be there on your computer!

I wish I could help you, but I'm not a digi gal.
