I think that link originally went to a huge poster of the Captain's face that covered an entire wall. But I can't find it now

That's simply fantastic - easy to download and install and files looks posh

But my acrobat files seem as confused as I'm - looks like I need to choose a programme each time Sorry for being so thick - promise to ask no more questions

If you want Foxit as default, Under its help menu help, select "Set to default pdf reader"

For Adobe as default, you'll have to find the option in its complicated menus. I can't help as I don't have it installed.


Another way is to right click any pdf.
Select Open With but don't select adobe/foxit from the side menu - go straight to Choose Program.
By going to Choose Program, you'll get an extra option to 'Always use this program to open these files'

you won't need paint or wall paper
instead have the guru money saver
reminding moneysaving as days dawn nd set
me can't boast I'm a moneysaver yet
so Martin might not want to be on my wall
my money habits might make his skin crawl
still am enjoying being a savings forum learner
hoping to be more useful than a humble lurker



This has been moved from the arms - so I have to search my posts finding it

Once again - one of the best threads and one that compliments my interest in art and graphics - thank you sra :A

Found Johnny

Fixed original post link

So your favorite too is Johnny

I tried out a few designs with single color - chose from Wikipedia - but I much prefer well taken photographs and use mulitcolor - the shades are fortunately pastel and sober.

I took a screenshot and copied to paint pro, perhaps why the grey borders are missing :question:

This is Raquel Welch



I had to do one just focusing on the face for clarity in expression - I guess you're good with picking the right number of pages - me still exploring on that



Hope you're pleased with your student

ok, havent tried the program in the thread but wanted to share one of the best programs in the world. You know them Mosaic Pictures that are made out of 1000's of tiny pictures. Well this program makes them for you! - For best results use a base image with strong contrast. There are loads of settings to play around with if you want. There are 101 uses for this. A company that needs a picture in your waiting area? Family holidays you never want to forget? the list goes on
Oh yer, if you are getting digital pictures printed add one or two of these in (you may want to get the ratio of the outputed file to match that of the printers ie 7x5). You can even get them printed on canvas online!

How about a Rasterbated mosaic? Now that would be very interesting.
