Can someone help?

Hi there

Can someone help me, I m looking to put some nice background pictures onto a worksheet Im planning to upload, but I dont know how to do it.

The kind of pics Im looking for are ones that will sit nicely in the background subtly, almost like they are faded.

I don�t want strong images, I want to be able to tone them down. I have seen some people with background images, behind their text. Can someone explain to me how its done??

thanks

Hi Sarah! After you choose the picture and put it where you like, clik on it and the toolbar for image will appear - one of the optings is colouring, I think, and you chose watermark. If you�re not satisfied, you can continue to adjust the cours cliking on contrast or brightness options. I hope I could help.

Hugs,

mena

Here�s a useful little �how to� on graphic watermarks in Word for you:

There may be a few variations on this process depending on which version of Word you use.

The Word �background� option was originally designed for online publishing, so works a littl bit differently to watermarking.

Cheers,
