MAC alternative.

If you haven't got Photoshop nor Illustrator, here's something you can do; you can create it using the iPhoto and the Preview that comes with the mac:

1. Import the photos into iPhoto if you haven't already.
2. Select the photos you want to use.
3. Click the "Create Book" button
4. Chose the style of book you want and play with the layout and text.
5. When ready select print, just print the page(s) you're interested in!
6. Instead of a printer select "Save as PDF"... then save.
7. Open the PDF file you just created in Preview.
8. Select "Save as" and save it as JPG.
9. Open the JPG in Preview and "Adjust Size" in the tools menu, use a suitable size.
10. Save again, and publish in BDW

This is going to be interesting and hard. Six letters and no clue as to what pics to use for them. I can only think of one for the letter "s". Can the pics be from the internet??

If it discribes you, then sure. So say you have a R in your name you could pull up pictures of a rose bouquet if your going to have a rose bouguet. :-)
