Mon 9-24 : ad space, part two


OK then, there are only two other elements you will need to add to your...ad Here they are:

A) At the bottom of the screen, in the middle of the drawing toolbar, you will see a white box with a letter "A", followed by some small lines. This is the "TextBox" button. Click it, and draw a textbox somewhere on your Word document

B) Unlike your pictures, a textbox can be dragged anywhere you want right away. The trick is to put something that you will say about your product in that textbox, some sort of slogan. For example, the Nike slogan is "just do it". McDonald's has "I'm lovin' it". Mac has "think different"

  It should be a short phrase, or sentence like that

C) You will want to add a second textbox, one which includes more detailed information: something about the product, or where to order it, or a local store where you can pick it up. The text in this textbox should be  somewhat smaller, less colorful...that way it doesn't distract from the "wow factor"

D) Also, you will need to put some kind of background color or pattern, so use the FORMAT - PAGE command to get that done

When you are finished, please upload your work to your shared folder on Box.net

Cheers,
Mr. L
