anyone know of a site where you can get templates of more menu buttons for the program "TMPGEnc DVD Author ", it doesn't have very many to choose from, or do you just have to create your own?

thanks

Here is a great way to make your own if you like motion menus:

you will need some photoshop know how but it is not all that difficult.

If you have photoshop or another imaging software program you can create your own then follow the above instructions on how to import them to TDA.

If you're not familar with the pen tool. Download elements 2.0 trial.

Same results less headache.
Philip is fantastic. For more advanced users, I think.
For someone who is just learning.Or lack patience

This is the easiest way to go. I found out the hard way

Open elements 2.0 > NEw>
background> check the bx X transparent>

Select an image you want to use for a button. Or TEXT.

resize it to your preference.> duplicate 2X

Go to tab > styles> Visibilty> select GHOST>

Drag an drop onto image or text.

save as PSD for editing
PNG for Tmpeg buttons.
