I use Microsoft Publisher for all my husband’s advertising. (He owns an auto shop.) I took a clip art from the Publisher CD library, rotated it, and modified it in Paint, (look in the accessories folder off of Windows) saved the final logo as a picture, and import it back into publisher whenever I need it.
Lots of Luck,
Susan
Designing Letterhead / Company Logo for Direct Mail - Posted by breeves
Posted by breeves on January 29, 2000 at 17:02:29:
Do I have to buy a graphic artist software to get a simple company letterhead and logo? I will be doing mass mailings, signs, flyers, etc and want a consistent image.
I have Word2000 and Microsoft Home Publisher. Even bought a cheap $5 MyLogo software(Reviewed it and know why is cost $5 -useless).None of these as far as I could tell let you actually design (draw?) a design. I just need a simple roof with chimney siloutte with my company name under neath. Geez, I could have rehabbed a house with the time I’ve spent messin around trying to get this simple detail done. Should I just go to the local printer and let them do the design?
Advise please.

I purchased a couple of CD’s a few years ago with 40,000 images (for $40; probably cheaper now) at CompUSA, all freeware and licensed to be used as pleased. I found one close to what I wanted and modified it to my liking for a previous PC consultant venture. I also print my own business cards and just today, purchased a pack of 200 post cards to print for $20. You can get everything you need for $60. I did spend several hours modifying the image, but it came out so good I intend to use it now for my investing career.
Good luck!
