@CherryBomb, @Former-Member or any other @Former-Member floating around Forum Land, will you ride a wave with me? I thought I would be fine doing something...but it turns out that the something has made my big feelings BIG and now I'm in a pickle...and there's nothing worse than a pickled turtle! I'm going to go and snuggle in my bed so I probably won't actually respond to you, but it will still super help me to know that I am not utterly alone on the wave. I don't want to tag anyone else because I don't want anyone to feel they need to respond. Thank you in advance for riding with me.
That was meant to be between 2010 and 2013 @Phoenix_Rising - I really am tired.....
The 2010 version of Word should have the same REMOVE BACKGROUND feature as 2013 ('cos I looked it up )

Re: Riding a wave
Ummm, that sounds a whole lot easier than using a background remover app on a phone, zooming in to tiny detail, manually tracing around the edges of pictures with a tiny brush, then using a bigger brush to remove the rest, then adding photos and images together on a photo layering app.
Face palming myself right now 😆

@Phoenix_Rising@CheerBear you both know that I am giving up my secrets to 'ruling the world' here don't you lol

Re: Riding a wave
I know @Zoe7. I feel super super super privileged. This is definitely a cool tool for my toolkit. Super super super big thank you for sharing your secrets. Drawing, painting etc. are not my thing (mostly because I used to get teased so much at school for my remarkably bad drawing skills), so being able to express myself in this way is AWESOME.
Oh did I mention that TTT also has colouring in books in her office!

Re: Riding a wave
Hope she has colouring in pencils/colouring implements as well as the books @Phoenix_Rising - otherwise that could be quite frustrating lol
I'm trying to put together some screenshots for you to post but can't do it on my computer so will have to take photos and edit them from there - this may take some time.................

Re: Riding a wave
@Zoe7 Giggle. I'm pretty sure TTT has colouring pencils too.
Don't fret about creating pictorial instructions Zoe7. I am fine with just pressing buttons to see what they do (once I know what progam I should be using ). Now @CheerBear on the other hand may need lots of pictures.

Re: Riding a wave
I am super super super grateful to @Zoe7 for teaching me how to make pictures. This is such a super cool distraction activity for me. @Shaz51@Former-Member@Former-Member are you super excited to be flying in @NikNik's nutella jar? If too many more people join us I think I will need to move out onto the wing - I don't do crowds you know.
