A housemate /friend asked me to help him do a flyer for a nightclub thing he's organizing (he's a dj) on the computer.
Now, that isn't a problem. Done it before, and it turned out ok.
But, i swear, the local library's computer's had Fred Flinstone designing them.
Actually, even he'd think they were ancient.
For a start, the word art wouldn't go into place. And then, when it eventually did go where we wanted it to go, the picture kept dissapearing.
Then, the computer decided, no matter how much i played with the margin's /page layout, it wouldn't let us actually move the picture. Or resize it.
Then, when we did the footer, the picture and word art went onto another page, or dissapeared altogether.
And then, when we managed to actually get everything to go right, we discovered the printer was out of use. So we had to save it to his email to print out later.
It was an event that is worthy of a mention in the 'this could only happen at my house' log i'm keeping.
