    I was designing a stock location spreadsheet for the ICL census where I work (yes brits we process your census forms) and was only able to access the Microsoft clipart...YUK!
    Sorry my friends but it's just too damned...well American...know what I mean?
    Thing is I wanted resizable/non jaggy WMF files so I can create proper clipart for the firm. And I did, and here it is, I did all the icons on one sheet in XARA and exported them in slices to make individual WMF pics. I will also bring in an apple for the boss on monday morning.

    Another fine use for this programme
    Viva la XARA is what I say!!!
    Cheers

    Nice icons for a guy who lists his profession as being on the dole, eh?

    Icons, I believe are much better than just words, because you can relate to them instantly, and they are much easier if your English isn’t so good or if you are dyslexic.

    I REALLY AM on the dole at the moment, I've just finished college and got my C&Gs [network admin, IT support, system builds, etc] I.T. work round here is very thin on the ground unless you want to do a lot of temping.... <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

    Just quoting what you posted in Ross's Careers Thread

    I'm happy to be wrong. I want everybody to be healthy, happy, and gainfully employed.

    And yes, icons are better than words, especially in Europe where so many different languages are spoken.

    Your profile is fine. It shows you as employed. Congratulations on finding a job - they are hard to find in Canada also.
