Creating Your Own Project
We will begin by creating a new document in Kid Pix Deluxe. We'll create a background image of a tree and then copy it several times to create a page for each of the four seasons. We'll modify the pages by adding stamps that represent each season, as well as changing the tree in the background, using the draw tools in Kid Pix. Finally, we'll create a slideshow using a cover page we've created and each of the season pages. We'll save the slideshow and also export it in a format we can share with others.
