Rainmac the bag shop is in McArthur Glen and there is a seat right outside the shop door just for the poor hubbies He says he won't come into the shop with me cos he doesn't want to see how much I spend :eek::eek: I just tell him I'm the same when he pays for his flying:p
He is doubly lucky when we go there because there is a seat outside the Papermill Shop too:rotfl:He does get a treat though for being a good flourboy, coffee at Thorntons and a bag of toffees:D

Hi all

I need some help please. I saw a couple of cards using different fonts and fonts with snowmen etc on them my question is how do you use them? I have downloaded some from http://www.fontspace.com/character/snowpersons but i don't know how to use them :cool:

Hi KMS. When I download a font I save it to a folder on my desktop. So when you download it it asks if you want to Open or Save it. Choose Save. It will ask where you want to save it - make or choose a folder and click Save. Then open the folder and you will see the zipped font file, click on it and "extract" it. I have XP so I am assuming that you have that or a later edition so it should be easy. Just follow the Extraction Wizard. It will ask where you want to save it. You could save it to the same folder as originally then drag and drop it to the Font Folder in My Computer. Then it's ready to use.
