Hi Cynthia

You could just 'Create a Card' with a simple PNG blank style to check out all the options avail then delete or not submit it. Or ... make one for real and submit it. Either way will show you all the choices. Just make sure your photo card is made in PNG format to upload it.

Thanks Mindy. More is always good in this case!

You can only see these when using the photo card software to create a card.

I have a TEMPONLY photo card in my Private Gallery that I use as a test vehicle when I need to, so I brought that up and saw all the great choices that were added

I'm guessing that your card having a blue background suggests you did not save your file in PNG format, but as a JPG?

PNG areas are transparent when you upload the card front and that area will show as pink.

Another thing that might be the problem: When you used the custom photo tools, did you define a photo area before attempting to add the photo?

Do either of those two things help?
