In PRINT SHOP IMAGES, BIG BLUE DISK presents a collection of images
designed to be used with Broderbund Software's popular Print Shop (R) program.
If you own Print Shop, you can use these images to create greeting cards,
letterheads, and posters on your own printer.
^1THE MISSING VALENTINE IMAGES
Several subscribers were unable to find the Valentine images published on
Big Blue Disk issue #52. Instead of placing them as a separate menu item, we
published them ^1inside^0 the Print Shop Utilities IV program. To see the
Valentine images, run Print Shop Utilities IV from BBD #52 and follow these
three simple steps:
1. The ^1File Menu^0 option will be highlighted on the first menu.
Press ENTER to "Work with files of images."
2. Then the ^1Display File^0 option will be highlighted on the second
menu. Press ENTER to "Display a file of images."
3. A new menu will appear and the file ^1GRBBD52^0 will be highlighted.
Press ENTER to select this file.
Voila! The Valentine images are presented for your perusal!
^1ON THIS ISSUE
In issue 47, we published the first set of David Sherman's military print
shop images with the U. S. Army insignia. In issue 51, we continued his image
sets with the U. S. Navy insignia. This month, in view of the Persian Gulf
war, we finish the images with the U. S. Air Force and U. S. Marine Corps
insignia.
Back in issue 48, we published Walter Yesia's Boy Scout Merit Badge images.
We had several subscribers notice that all of the badges weren't up to date.
Well, we contacted Walter and he came through with these updates to his
previous work.
As he wrote in his letter to us, "Please find on this disk the updated Boy
Scout Merit Badge Print Shop images requested by Mr. Holbrook. I must
apologize for my ignorance and lack of research in all the changes made in the
Boy Scout images since I was in Scouting. The updated images were taken from
a Boy Scout Manual, Copyrighted 1990, Tenth Edition, Second Printing. I hope
these image updates will help Mr. Holbrook with his Scouting. I only wish I
had today's technology when I was in Scouting. I wish Mr. Holbrook, Good
Scouting.
Walt Yesia"
^1A NEW WAY OF LOOKING AT PRINT SHOP IMAGES
We hope you like our new image display program. With this version you can
roam about your hard disk (if you have one) and view all of your images no
matter what directory they are in. Of course, the display program also works
on floppy disks. In addition, we can now place sets of images into separate
files and give then descriptive file names.
When you run the ^1Print Shop Images^0 option of the Big Blue Disk main menu
a list of files containing images will appear. Move the highlight bar to the
desired file using the arrow keys or a mouse, then press ENTER or click the
mouse button to select the highlighted file. The selected images will be
displayed.
The following file names are listed in this issue:
GROFICER - insignia for Air Force and Army OFFICERS
GRUSAF - insignia for the United States Air Force
GRUSMC - insignia for the United States Marine Corps
GRUSMCWO - insignia for the United States Marine Corps Warrant Officers
GR_BSA2 - Updated Merit Badges for the Boy Scouts of America
For those of you who have BBD Issue 47, note that you already have the
images in GROFICER. We're republishing them for those of you who don't have
BBD Issue 47.
