i have been busy laughing at the thread To Dorry and would love to learn how to do some photo-chopping I think its called, followed the Yarc link and fiddled with making book for dummies and tarot cards.
It has really caught my imagination..Please is anyone willing or able to help me learn how to do this crazy stuff..or direct me to a novice site.. Running on IE and type with one finger not very PC literate have got some other programmes as well....So need very simple instructions..but looks as if I could entertain myself for hours sitting here.. |

hi stumps. I agree - it's alot of fun and great way to alleviate boredom.
Do you have any graphics software on your computer besides MS Paint? There are many ways to do it, using different tools in graphics software. I use an older version of Paint Shop Pro. I'll see if I can find you something free onine. Here are some online generators to play with if you don't have software. http://www.customsigngenerator.com/ Here's the South Park one I used: http://www.sp-studio.de/ If you don't have graphics software and want to add comic dialog bubbles, let me know and I'll put it together for you. |

I am going to have great fun here I can see that already..
As I said I am not computer literate but found paint label on this PC..then clicked an icon on my tray WindowsXP home which I appear to have loaded from googlepack calledPicasa2, LOL never knew what that symbol was till i opened it and found a load of pictures there..told you I am a dummy.. I can't find anything to do with graphics at all here..tried to search all the programe menu thingy.. Don't think I will be posting full of woes for a while on he main forums, going to learn a new skill which will help distract from aches pains and all that stuff.. |

stumps - here's a quick lesson:
take original pic : Crop out what you want. In this case I changed it to b/w and enlarged it by 125%: Then I found the movie poster I wanted to use: Changed that to b/w: continued next post b/c of 5 pic post limitation >> |
