Any mickey mouse christmas picture frames?

These are Christmas frames I've done in past years that contain Mickey or Mickey and friends. If need be, I can modify any of them if your interested.

See if this helps some:

Open the frame, that you have saved on your hard drive, into Photoshop Elements. Then open the picture you want framed. The frame should be visible down at the bottom of the screen. Click on the move tool (circled in purple, and click on select "all"). Now drag the picture down to the frame (see long arrow in my example). Now follow the instructions that I've provided in my last post. This is not easy to describe from a distance.

Hope this helps some. Good luck.

When I drag my photo into the frame, it is huge. Will show an eye or
arm. I have tried to use the handles to make the photo smaller, but
moving the picture scrolls down the screen and it nevers get to the
frame. I appreciate you giving me a tutorial. Thank you!

Try this. While your picture, not frame, is active, go to "image", "resize", "image size" and under pixel dimensions change pixels to percent and make the percent amount about 25%. This should make your picture small enough that when you drag it on top of the frame you will be able to see the frame below the picture. Now you should be able to grab the handles and resize the picture to be just a bit larger than the opening.

Here's one I did a couple of years ago for Pooh lovers.

Okay, I've got that down, but when I go to Layer, arrange is not
highlighted for me to click on. I tried clicking the check each time
I made an adjustment to the photo, but it still did not highlight "arrange"

I think you're almost there. When you load the saved frame into PS Elements, click on "image" then "mode". The option "indexed color" will probably be checked off. Change this to "RGB color" and that should do it.

Let me know how you make out.

I actually have gotten two to work, but I have others that won't.
Would it affect how this works if the frames are saved in a different
format like Bitmap. Would there be another reason it would not
work. At least I feel there is hope. I appreciate you walking me
through this. Thanks!!!

i don't know if bmp works. I know whenever I upload a frame to Photobucket I use gif. I think jpg works also, just dont know about bitmap. Maybe if I get a chance tomorrow I'll save one in bmt format and see if it works. I'll get back to you after I give it a whirl.

Got a chance to try out a bmp tonight, and it DID NOT work.
