Very nice!

Now for us dummies/er I mean "smarties", did you create the text slide in a

program such as photoshop?

Where did you get the nice boarder?

I assume you then saved the result as a JPG.

Any particular resolution or just full screen?

The flicker and shake were very nice.

Did you do that by hand on the time line??

Thanks!

Neil, Dan, glad you like it.

Actually, I didn't use any photo editor. Everything is directly done in PTE.

For the border, I used PTE rectangles for the lines and for the corners, Frames and Borders fonts (free) I found on 1001fonts.com.

For the texts, I used Vivaldi fonts (installed by default on my system with my version of Windows XP) and for the capitals, Fleur Corner Caps which is also a free font you can download on dafont.com.

The flicker effect is actually just a very quick rotation of 2 masks to give the illusion.

For the shaking, I could have used a system of father-child frame objects with center offset but as I wanted to be "natural", it's only several manual keyframes I set.
