I just realized I put the wrong boy's name on this LO. I already flattened it, is there any way to fix it, or do I have to start over?? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Rule #1 - Always keep your original layered file! Keep copies of your flattened version - but always keep the layered file!
That said - you may be able to clone over the wrong name and write the right one. Zoom in close and be very careful!
While you are at it - take a look at this tutorial: http://digitalscrapbookplace.com/university/tutorials/handscrapped.shtml I think it will help your scrapping tremendously!

Hi Lisa, welcome to live and learn. I learn't the hard way as well ( I flattened dozens of LO before I learnt). I leave all of my layouts in layers now.

What is flattening? How do you save in layers in PS 6.0?
Any links or comments are appreciated!

When you build a scrapbook page in Photoshop, each thing is on its own layer. To keep the layers you need to save your page in Photoshops native format - PSD.
You can merge all the layers and make your layout flat and save as a .jpg for easy printing and sharing on the net.

Oh. See, I already knew to do that and how. I just didn't know the terminology! Thanks so much, Amanda!
