[thelist] Simple graphics question (second posting)

Hi Hershel,
I read your problem and those lots of remedies which were posted for helping
you. No doubt, every one tried his/her best to help you but you will have to
learn some quite difficult programs like Macromedia Fireworks, Adobe
Photoshop etc. to create your required images.
I think you must consult to one of your friends or relatives which knows to
work with Macromedia Fireworks, Adobe Photoshop etc. and ask him/her to
create graphics for you. I know some Adobe Photoshop  and some days ago I
created some graphics with text for roll-over buttons with Adobe Photoshop.
It was a very good experience. I think images were created very
successfully.
I can create some for you and send them to you (if you want to).

totally ignorant of Adobe Photoshop.).

I posted this yesterday but it seems to have gotten lost somewhere.  Here it
is again:

OK, I'm a programmer.  I do a bit of design here and there but I'm no pro.
Some things I can do and some things I can't do.

I have a client with a small graphics need.  He has the background GIF with
rollover for his buttons.  It's a little cloud.  Now I need to put the
different names of the buttons inside the GIFs.  I have to get the letters
to match (i.e. same position) in the normal and in the rollover versions and
I need to get the buttons to all match each other.

The second part I can probably do but the first part I can't do it exactly.
I don't have much in the way of graphics tools.  I have Corel PhotoHouse
which I usually use for simple graphics stuff and I have PBM and Kai Photo
Soap.  Aside from that, I have available the wide world of freeware for
Windows 2K :)

Any advice as to how to proceed is appreciated.

Thanks,
Hershel, who nearly failed 5th grade art class :)
