POSTCARDS (Activision)
|
||
|
||
- TURN YOUR COMPUTER INTO A WACKY POSTCARD MAKER -
|
||
|
||
|
||
You've probably used your Apple GS computer for a lot of different things. For
|
||
work or homework. For organizing home business information. For games. Maybe
|
||
even for creating other types of letters or cards. But you've probably never
|
||
used your micro to create anything as wacky (and fun!) as the kinds of things
|
||
you'll create with POSTCARDS.
|
||
|
||
POSTCARDS gives you everything you need to create you own original, far-out
|
||
postcards. For starters, you get the craziest assortment of creative clipart
|
||
ever compiled. There's a bikini-clad warthog. A platypus. A UFO. The Mona
|
||
Lisa. Insects of all sizes and scariness. And scads more.
|
||
|
||
Then, you get a wide array of postcard backgrounds. Like a beach, farm, desert,
|
||
cityscape, and even a moonscape. So you can mix and match the most ridiculously
|
||
unique combinations.
|
||
|
||
Put a one-eyed, three-antennaed alien at a busy downtown penguin crossing. Or
|
||
show a giant tarantula crawling out from behind an erupting volcano. There are
|
||
thousands of possible possibilities.
|
||
|
||
Plus, POSTCARDS comes with catchy captions as well as clipart alphabets, for
|
||
your own writing. It only takes about five minutes to make your first postcard.
|
||
|
||
|
||
SIX EASY STEPS TO MAKING A POSTCARD
|
||
|
||
|
||
Utilizing a GS paint program , like PaintWorks Plus, its as easy as cut, paste,
|
||
and print.
|
||
|
||
1. PICK OUT THE SCENE. Open the SCENE1 file and, using the SAVE AS command,
|
||
give it a new name, like BIRTHDAY, and save it on your work disk. Then CLOSE
|
||
the file.
|
||
|
||
2. PICK OUT THE ART. Open the PEOPLE2 file. Use the lasso with the COPY
|
||
command to select the guy in the Hawaiian shirt, or any other image, to put on
|
||
your postcard. Then CLOSE the file.
|
||
|
||
3. PLACE THE ART. Open your BIRTHDAY (or whatever name you used) file. Using
|
||
the PASTE command, position your guy in the Hawaiian shirt in the bottom right
|
||
hand cornor of the beach. The CLOSE and SAVE your file.
|
||
|
||
4. PICK OUT A MESSAGE. Open the LETTERS file. Use the lasso with the COPY
|
||
command to select "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" and place it on your postcard as described in
|
||
steps 2 and 3 above.
|
||
|
||
5. PRINT. Just click on your PRINT command.
|
||
|
||
6. CUT AND GLUE TO CARD STOCK. Loosely cut out your postcard and glue it to a
|
||
standard US Postcard. Blank stock can be purchased from Activision.
