Hi all!
Recently we had some photographs we wanted to edit for our annual conference. I was asked to sort it out. After a bit I found we had Photoshop on the system.
I have never used Photoshop, but eventually got the hang of shrinking images, saving them as different formats. Seeing this, my boss got over enthusiastic. I had shrunk down a map showing the location of the conference hotel. My boss thought it would be a brilliant idea to put markers on the map indicating where the other hotel and locations were. Then add a list on the map showing what each marker represented (1: Hotel A, 2: Hotel B, 3 Conference Hall, etc.
This is where I ran into trouble. Mostly by guesswork I managed to hack a white square area in one corner then use the type tool to type over it. . I then hacked little squares out of the map picture and typed numbers indicating the places into the squares.
The results were patchy. when my boss wanted the numbers enlarged and the map key white text on black, I pretty much collapsed in a heap.
Can anyone tell me how I could have a) done these things and b) done them better?
Cheers
David
