adding things to pictures - to indicate places, items etc

[Koromo]

Ah ... resizing.

Once you have put what you want in the text box, click the  Aa  on Preview's tool bar at the bottom right.  That will bring up the Text toolbox and you can increase the size of the font — up 288 (points).

'Tis midday-ish here, but all this has been a pleasant interlude from an unblocking of a kitchen drain!

Cheers

Nooooo!!    - not resizing the text - resizing the picture - the whole thing - what I put up on this thread - it could have been smaller!! 

Think my head needs unblocking while you are at it!!  You are very patient - (Please, may I call on you another time when i can't work my Mac??  Mac people are a rare breed and we need to speak to each other 'cos we know what we are talking about when others don't!)

Wiggy  -  ever grateful for assistance

[Koromo]

Oh! 

In Preview, go to Tools/Adjust size ...

Change the width to something smaller, and the height will adjust itself to keep it in proportion.

You may certainly call for help, although there are Mac programs I don't use ... like iTunes and things!. There are a few of us Mac users on RootsChat — keep a look-out for our very helpful moderator, PrueM.

What!   You mean our Prue doesn't use a real puta?

Denn (in agony after rushing from my last post to serve up the dinner and tripping over, leaving thew dinner on the floor along with myself

[Koromo]

Ouch!  Denn, I hope you didn't injure anything more than the dinner!  Was there enough left for you to have a second helping ... off a plate, rather than the floor?

And whaddayer mean doesn't use a real puta?  Of course she does, just as Wiggy and I do!     Beautifully designed by Englishman Jonathan Ives, too.

Pretty sore but nothing broken and I'm sure that I'll be okay in a day or two - that will teach me to be more carefull in future - and yes, I had plenty other dishes to go at.

Maybe I'll look at one of those things one day - only cos o' the english connection - he wasn't a Yorkshireman by any chance?

 - he wasn't a Yorkshireman by any chance?

No, not according to good ol' Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_Ive

Do take care of yourself!

All you have to do is open it in Paint, cut out the hand and save it. Then you can paste it on any photo you want.
