How do I obtain more backgrounds?

I want a solid black background for a slideshow but it is not available in the default selection. How do I obtain this or design one of my own?

How to make a solid black background

Post by Velojet »

Simply make an all black JPEG of at least the dimensions of your video frames in a graphics editor (MS Paint if you've nothing else).

Then, in production Step 2 in MF, click the box under 'Background image/video' on the Edit tab, click 'Select a Background Image for this Menu', browse to your black JPEG, select it and click 'Open'.

Voila! Your solid black background.

You're very welcome, Suzanne. Don't hestitate to ask further questions. Remember, the only silly question is the one that's not asked.
