Charyn,
There is a tutorial buried somewhere in the SBC+ thread.

You cannot use pds files with SBC+.
You CAN use .page files, but not .sbpage.
You can use .png files, but you will need to convert them.

I gotta go get lunch on the table for the kids right now, but basically you'll need to import the .pngs as elements into a kit (I have created a special "kit" just for converting templates). Then you will need to add the .png files in order from back to front, flattening them individually OR putting down a few, selecting them and cutting around the entire bunch with the custom cutter. If you're not familiar with doing this, then stick to flattening out each .png until you're more comfortable with the process.

Make sure you save the page as you go, because the .png files are large and will use up a lot of the working memory; saving the project will help with this.

Once it is completed I always save the page in a project just for templates and import it into the project I"m working on.

Sorry that I gotta run, but lunch is in the ove and I gotta get it out!

I'll stop back later on.
