NO you're not. I use Excel to edit my images...nyuk nyuk.
Seriously, I use PS...and very rarely maybe sometimes will use Pub to adjust
the size of something if I'm too lazy.

Elements huh... funny I would thought you'd be full blown PS'er.
I've been messing with Acrylic the past week...interesting.
You wanna try a cool vector graphics program? If you haven't already, give
Xara X1 a spin.

Actually you are not the only one. I have done many LO's with photos, but
never had the option of the shapes like this post has shown. -- THANKS!!

Thanks to all who responded. I'd forgotten about the Fill!
Since I'm a poor home-body doing stuff for himself on a "new powerful"
Pentium 166MMX on Win98Se, I tend to use free downloads for my programs
until I can afford to splurge for a "real" program. Right now, I'm saving
up for a "real" computer! In the meantime, I'm using IrfanView to adjust
photos, and I don't think it gives me the option to create a round or oval
picture.

Round and oval are just illusions all images are rectangular or square.
IrFanview is an incredibly powerful tool, but it's not a full image editor.
I still have a working 286 with DOS 6.0 on it, I cant seem to through stuff
away that works. It's not my everyday machine though

Images featuring semitransparency or alpha layer transparency imported into
Publisher do not always retain their transparency when printed, if at all.
Gradients containing transparency, and sometimes single-colour fills

Since I didn't understand all of that, I'm going to assume that so far I've
never run into it. When I have an image that prints a strange background,
I'll dig a bit deeper.
Thank you.
