I bought this to design book covers. Previously was using Roxio with an XP system. Upgraded to Win 8.1 and had to get a new program. So, here's what I'm doing. I start a new portrait, insert a photo, select the background color of the portrait so that I have a nice title border, then insert my text.

This is what I see:

This is what I get when exporting to JPEG:

WHY? No matter what I search in Help or change or alter, the picture aligns to the Text. I cannot submit a cover with Text aligned to the top. Why is my background disappearing?
