jenn 1 Posted July 28, 2011 Thanks for that response.......as i said, i have been a member since 2008 but just started to design......my old biz partner did it all..now i'm flying solo. As i was not aware of what it was called, "screen cast" i did not know what to search for....i did search the forum for quite a bit of time, but had no luck.....that's why i placed a post...... A snooty response was not needed........... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A snooty response was not needed........... a "screencast" is a video showing how to do it.... outline text,,, is the term you are searching for. also Signblazer has a real nice manual to use... Maybe download and read it. or ask your old biz partner...you should at least teach yourself the basics before flying solo on orders, if it was an order. And you can call it a snooty response all you want... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He uses JING, you can even use JING as a search word and bring up many of the screencasts that people do. http://www.screencast.com/users/jay2703/folders/Jing/media/abbd106c-8f1f-4de1-8b7f-0a11305782ce 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FBRsportmod68 109 Posted August 22, 2011 thats what this forum has turned into....too many people who want to chime in on someone asking for help with "do a search, google it, look for it yourself"...theres not one single person on this forum or any other that was born knowing how to do this stuff. If you dont want to help, dont. But dont post under the topics asking for help. And it was a snooty response. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
