Creating Your Own Project
We will begin by creating a new document in Word 2008. We will learn how to add an image to our document, and how to resize and reposition that image. We will also apply a color filter to the image so that it fits our color theme. We'll add and edit WordArt and other text to create the message on our poster. Finally, we will print and save our Internet safety poster.
