The Rocket Engine Sidebar

I don’t know about you guys, but I’m a big fan of time-savers and shortcuts.  Here are a few super useful (and fun!) shortcuts to help you in your creative RocketLife endeavors.

The Rocket Engine sidebar is kind of like a Swiss Army Knife – it’s a really useful, all-in-one kind of tool.  Here’s what each of the options does:

1. Try Theme Variations – Want to see how your layout looks with a different variation of the theme you’ve selected?  Click the link to watch your super cool layout get a super cool new background.  Click as many times as you’d like – there are lots of options to choose from.
2. Try Photo Rotations – This is one of my favorites because, in general, I like tilting my photos a bit.  Click this once or many times until you’re satisfied with the result.
3. Try More Layouts – Want to see what your creation will look like with the photos re-arranged?  Click until you’re happy with the snazzy new layout!
4. Lock Layout – Lock the layout so that you don’t inadvertently mess up your perfection (take it from someone who has done it before…).
5. Remove Photo -  Select a photo, click the link and – viola! – the picture is gone.
6. Remove Month – (Note, this one applies to Calendars) Don’t want to make a 12 Month Calendar? Click this to remove the current month.
