I downloaded PixBuilderStudio 2.2 (PBS many months ago but am only now beginning to use it and I need some very basic orientation. Having tried it in an hit-and-miss way I am impressed with all its options and I realize I need to dig deeper to understand them all. A rank beginner, I would be grateful for some general orientation. In particular: 1. Is this the apropriate place to discuss PixBuilderStudio? 2. The PBS Help menu refers to a web site, www.wnsoft.com. But that site discusses Pictures To Exe (PTE), an app that appears to be for building slide shows. --- What is the relationship between PBS and PTE? FWIW, my interest is in editing single pictures taken with a digital camera. Am I wrong in thinking that PTE is <no >the app I am looking for? 3. Can someone please point me to manual or the like that <explains> the tons of features and options on PBS? For example: in using the Brightness/Contrast option how do I use the gradation scales I see when I apply it.? I am looking for a manual (on the web) that explains ALL of the PBS features. Is there one? 4. As a beginner, is there a PBS tutorial I should be using? Thank you for your patience. ... wdc
