Creating Your Own Virtual Vision Board

Two Creative Ways of Designing Your Personal Vision Board

If you have even just some basic photo-editing know how and can use a program like Photoshop you can do the next best thing to creating a DVD, and that is to create a Vision Board Screen Saver or wallpaper. This is probably a more simplistic means in designing a virtual vision board. Once again, it's simply collecting images that are representative in what you want to manifest in your life.

Here are the steps for creating your virtual Vision Board Screensaver/Wallpaper.

1). First, open up your photo-editing program and click on "File" then "New", then "blank file". That should open up a dialogue window where you can choose the dimensions of the blank white file. I choose to use a blank file image with the dimensions of 8.25-inches x 8.25-inches at 100ppi.

2). Next start opening up the images you want to place on this blank image file. I started with an image of a luxury log cabin type home, then by clicking on the rectangular marquee tool, I drew the marquee a tool over the image, then "copied" it using the Control + C keys (Cloverleaf + C on Mac computers). Go back to the blank image file and click on Control + V (Cloverleaf + V on Mac), and your image will be pasted onto the blank file image. To position the image where you want it, click on "Image" on the toolbar, then "transform", and finally "free transform". This will allow you to not only position the image where you want it, but you can also resize it to the perfect size you want on the blank file.

3).Once this image is where you want it, click on "File" and "Save As"...this will open a small dialogue box that will ask you if you want to apply the transformation application, in which you click on "Apply." Another dialogue box will open for the "Save As" feature in which you can save it as "Vision Board" in either the .psd or .jpg. extension...I use both extensions, first saving separately in the .psd format, then the .jpg format. One goes through these steps for each and every image you want as part of your virtual Vision Board. The dialogue box will no doubt indicate to you that you already have a saved Vision Board and will ask if you wish to replace it, so be sure to click the "yes" button to save each step of your Vision Board. If you wish, you can also add some text over the images by using the horizontal text tool, and choosing whichever text and color fonts you wish. You then finally click on the "Save As" to save the whole Vision Board you have now created.
