Where could I go to look for designs (i.e. if I wanted to look up front cover
page designs for a magazine look?)

designs!!!

Honestly I must reply. :) What is this fetish with templates? Go to any
bookstore or magazine stand and look at hundreds of real magazine
covers. What do you like? Sketch them out. Anyone can sketch boxes and
lines. Or take photos of the ones you like. Go home and duplicate the
design in Publisher. When you start working you'll make changes of your own.

I have many issues with Microsoft, but Publisher is an intuitive, easy
to use program made exactly for this kind of graphic design! (unless it
has changed greatly since I bot Pub 2002) Insert graphics, draw a text
box anywhere, format it. Use your imagination.

Mary has sent you to the same site that you could have found had you clicked
on the 'Microsoft Office Online' link available in all MS Office products..
she did it because that is where MS have templates on offer.. easy, eh..

The trouble is that you will still have to essentially make up a magazine
and cover yourself.. the newsletter template supplied with Publisher would
be good for internal pages, so no need to go online for that.. the cover
could be based on the 'book cover' template already supplied with Publisher,
so no need to go online for that either..

The elements that you appear to lack are not supplied by Microsoft or any
subsidiary thereof..

And he'll stand there and say "What the h*ll am I supposed to do with this?"

(If he's from your part of the world he'd probably make Star Gazy Pie. Ugh.)

Not me. I'll get a beer, throw some batter in it, mix it up, drop the
fish in it then place the fish is a deep fryer, while I drink the rest
of the beer and get another one.

BTW, where can I find a Pub template for making beer?

Don't ask me. I'm still trying to find the site with all of the "answers to
newsgroup questions" templates.

I usually try to find an answer using help. When I do, I reply: "Help
returned the following: paste here" Never a response, but you know they got
the message. Why is "help" such an ignored 4-letter word?

I must confess, this is why I read this newsgroup everyday... it's mostly
for the inane questions! Okay I'm guilty!!

How do I make a newsletter?
How do I make a brochure?
How do I insert text?
How do I make up with my spouse?
How do I find my butt with both hands?

Highly entertaining :)
