Finished my Philosophy essay = YAY! Realised after I'd forgotten the Bibliography and kicked myself but it was a text-specific question and I had footnotes, so forgave myself again. Creative Writing next and I know what I wnt to do but I need to wash hair and have food first so I have no excuse for distractions.
liroa15 the .jpg killed the quality of
so it's not really usable, but it's really size testing; is it big enough, not big enough, does the writing get cut off and so on. Once I know what size I'm working to I can do some proper ones over the next week or so, in between English essay and Bounty. :-)
Other than that have had a fairly dull day - woman wasn't there when I went to ask about studying abroad so I need to email her instead and I found out that flights to Canada are horrendously expensive. Think I should start saving now if I ever want to go. ^__^
Need food, since I've been living on cup-a-soup and sugar all day. Ah, the life of a student.

If that's...

2) If I use the landscape layout, which is the paper on its side (11X8.5) I only get the top portion of the words 'my eyes'.
3) This is a very contrary program, ARGG!!!!
Re: If that's...
Date: 2004-11-11 05:21 am (UTC)Note to self: 447x500 in portrait, 500x447 in landscape. Got it.
We'll get there eventually. ^__^ Do you want each picture themed to a month? Snowy-blue colours for January, red-orange colours for September, October and so on, or just random graphics?

Date: 2004-11-11 11:14 am (UTC)I was also working along a January theme this time. ^__^ If it works let me know and I'll get a .bmp version to you to use, through email or MSN or somehow.
If not... back to the drawing board. ;-)
Re: If that's...
Date: 2004-11-11 11:37 am (UTC)This graphic is enough to make me like snow though, but I think it needs to look a little more like a rectangle. We shall see though.
Yep, we've got half of the first line and half od the last line. Need to change the dimensions again. But I want this to be in the calendar so bad.
Re: If that's...
Date: 2004-11-11 11:39 am (UTC)In completely unrelated news, this program is driving me crazy!
Re: If that's...
Date: 2004-11-11 02:45 pm (UTC)But you like this sort of picture? I can easily reproduce these two once we get the dimensions right; it's the working out which pictures, lyrics and colours to use that takes the time. :-) (I did spend hours looking for a big picture of Andy with his tongue sticking out to match the lyrics but couldn't find one I liked *sighs*)
I'll try 500x380 this time. If that doesn't work maybe I should stick a thick, plain border on the top and bottom, so it just cuts that off and leaves the main graphic? Worth thinking about.
This is such a good excuse to mess around on Photoshop. ^__^
Re: If that's...
Date: 2004-11-11 03:34 pm (UTC)Spring themed. ^__^ Thought it would be around Spring that Andy would get tired of never beating Roger and Roger would get tired of winning Andy never being able to beat him... hence lyrics. ;-)

Date: 2004-11-11 06:32 pm (UTC)Also, sister points out that we need a front page.
Re: If that's...

And YAY! Works! You have no idea how happy I was to see that.

Date: 2004-11-11 06:13 pm (UTC)And as long as it's an excuse for something besides aggravation I'm happy.
