Pictures

The easiest way to load pictures is to use the Layout Wizard, which will assist you in getting started with a new layout and new pictures. If you want to load a different picture, or are past the wizard, there are many other ways you can add pictures to your layout. The Load Picture button allows you to load a picture into the currently active picture window, and you can also drag picture files into the picture windows from Windows Explorer. If you are using normal mode and have the Timeline window showing, you can also drag pictures into the picture boxes in the timeline. If you drag a picture to the empty area of the Timeline window, a new photo mix will be appended automatically and the picture will be added to that. You can also drag multiple pictures at once to the Timeline window to load pictures for multiple photo mixes at once.
Be sure to keep your pictures as you are working on your photo mix until the final photo mix is rendered, because only the location of the pictures on your computer is saved in your layout when you quit Morpheus Photo Mixer. If you delete or move the pictures from your computer and later try to load the layout, Morpheus Photo Mixer will be unable to locate the pictures. It will then prompt you to find them in order to properly see the photo mix again.
Transparent images and images with an alpha channel can be used if you check the "Morph the alpha channel" option in the Timeline Options window. Images such as transparent GIFs and 32bit PNGs can be animated and will use the background color from the Morph Options window in conjunction with the "Transparent threshold" to determine how the photo mix turns out.
