Emergency ecard design!
Dec. 21st, 2010 10:07 amDear flist/circle,
I need to design an ecard for work.
I have about 3.5 hours today and 4 hours tomorrow to accomplish this.
We have Word and Publisher and Outlook. Pretty sure we don't have Photoshop or anything graphic design-ey.
I do not know anything about design. (Well, a teeny bit, but nothing that useful.) I definitely do not know how to design a professional looking ecard.
Your thoughts and/or help would be appreciated!

Today I am queen of spam.
Dec. 21st, 2010 12:20 pmSo hey, folks. While waiting for the next installment of the ecard saga, or possibly the prospectus saga, I am going to write an update.
Finally finished my SeSa last night. And submitted before the deadline. I have promised myself that next year I will check in with myself carefully before signing up. I'll be honest, my heart was not in it this year.
Maybe Yuletide next year, instead.
Feeling a bit panicky about getting everything done for Christmas. Ah, it's hard when you don't have much money or energy. Not a good combination.
Looking forward to it being 2011, though. This has been a hard year, though also with lots of good in it; I feel I'm at last starting to get back on my feet, and I'm feeling a little bit more hopeful than I was even a month ago.
Right now this second, I'm feeling a bit sad and friendless, and wanting to make a post every five minutes, leave comments everywhere, and generally try to get people to talk to me. I'm trying to keep from spamming people's journals too much, 'cause I don't want to be an irritation. On the other hand, I would like to show my face.
The world is full of scary.
I've got stuff coming up that I need to get done, that should be all taken care of by the end of the year. After that, I feel like I can start making plans and deciding what I want to do: the decks will be cleared. (Yes, I'm being deliberately cryptic there. I want to announce the thing when it's done, I guess.)
There's quite a lot of writing I want to get done next year, too. I'm working on allowing myself to stay with the fanfic for a while, and trusting that original stuff will somehow come in time.
That is it for now - looks like I will shortly have stuff to do. Hurray!
