I was wondering if anyone can help me with some graphics, please? They're a couple of lines of fonts, and I was wanting to change the files to either .png or .gif.

Thank you.

I might be able to do that. I'll send a PM.

If you want to change to .gif, one way is to simply type the letter in Word or Publisher, copy it, paste it into Paint, crop to size and 'save as' a .gif image.

Alternatively, alter the fotn size until the text is as big as you can get and still have it all visible on the screen, then press "print screen". Paste that into Paint (or something better) and save it. The bigger the better; it's easier to shrink the image down than it is to blow it up.

If the file is already saved to your computer in some format, try putting it through zamzar (www.zamzar.com) – it can change most formats into most others.

But be warned, when you Browse for the original file and click on it, it doesn't actually show in the "Browse" window – although the site has picked it up.
