There
are all
types of
programs
available
to help
you make
stationery
:)
There are stationery
makers,
font
viewers,
color
pickers, free
graphic
programs
and a host
of
others.
There are
even
programs
to help
you check
your email
before you
download
it to your
computer.
Those that
are
freeware I
have
included
on this
page -
others I
have
supplied
the link
for.
Stationery
Makers
Basically,
these
programs
allow you
to choose
your
graphic,
sound,
font and
colors and
then
choose the
type of
scroll you
would like
to
have.
Prices
range from
free to
around $30
(US).
Adlors
My
personal
favorite
(and not
just
because it
is free:)
) is
Adlor's
Stationery
Creation
Program.
You may
download
it here.
For all of
the
programs I
have made
available
you will
need to
have an
unzipping
program,
such as Winzip.
Arachnophilia
This
one is
free too,
but a
little
difficult
to
explain.
I have
used it,
and after
the
initial
set up is
easy to
navigate.
It also
needs Sevn's
Stationery
Helper
to work
with
it.
For that
reason I
suggest
you visit
Sevn's
site and
from there
you can
download
both.
Scrippy
A
shareware
program
that I
have never
tried.
I have
spotted
some very
neat
effects
with this
one that
are not
available
on
others.
To
download a
30 day
trial
copy,
check here.
Be sure to
check the
system
requirements.
There are
also
e-mail
lists
available
at www.egroups.com
to help
you get
started
with the
program.
Lisa
A
very neat
shareware
program
that I
found
fairly
easy to
use.
Again, a
30 day
trial
download
is offered
with some
of the
features
disabled
in
it.
To
download a
copy, go
to the developer's
site. They have a very active Lisa
user's group.
Stationery
Maker
I
used this
one
briefly,
and once I
figured
out the
buttons,
it was ok
:)...Sometimes
I can be
very
blonde if
it is not
immediately
apparent
:)...Check
out Stationery
Maker
and make
your own
decision
:)
Font
Viewers
Once
you start
making
stationery,
you have
to find
the
perfect
font :)
There are
a host of
programs
available
to help
you decide
which one
to choose,
I will
only list
a few free
ones here.
Font-o-Matic
A
very handy
free font
viewer
that sits
on your
desktop or
quick
launch
tray.
To
download a
copy click here.
NAF
Another
easy to
use free
program
:)
Click here
to
download.
Color
Pickers
These
small
utilities
are very
handy when
searching
for
exactly
the right
color :)
Tray
Color
Color
tray is a
free small
utility
that
allows you
to match a
color from
any image
on your
screen.
To
download,
click here.
Eyedropper
Another
small
color
matching
freeware
program.
Get it here.
Color Preview
This
one is a
html page
that you
can keep
handy on
your
desktop
and will
allow you
to see at
a glance
what a
particular
color will
look like,
as well as
give the
hex and
html code
for it.
Check it
out!!!
Email
Remover
Ok,
you've
joined
email
groups,
your box
is
overflowing...what
are you to
do now?
How about
using this
email
remover
program?
Very easy
to set up,
it allows
you to
view the
subject
and size
of your
emails
before you
ever
download
them to
your
computer
:) I
highly
recommend
this
program
for anyone
who wants
to control
their
email.
You can
download
it here.
Email Cleaner
Email is checked now and sitting in your box and you wish to
forward it...<vbg> when you do tho you notice all those extra
>>>>>>> What to do??? Use the email
cleaner :)
A very useful tool is the Path
Copy utility. Instead of typing the path of your image or sound file,
this nifty little program will copy the entire path so all you have to do is
paste it in your script:)
Another little program I use a lot is Watch
Cat and while it is not directly related to stationery making I find it
useful. It resides in your system tray and will keep track of all those
open windows you have.
Be
sure to
check back
as I
continue
to add
free
programs
to help
with
stationery
making :)
