Hi Colin,
I really love your tutorials. I just watched this one on Free Templates and found it great. One question: When I attempted to download several templates marked FREE, I get an error message that there was a billing problem. I have the monthly CC subscription. Do you have to pay for a subscription for Adobe photos as well, to get the free templates?
If you have Creative Cloud it should be included, unless you are on the $9.99 a month photography program, then Im not sure
Mine does not have a place for a Smart Image. I am lost. Can you please create a video showing how to use your own photo to fill a template and without a place for a smart image?
