How to set up that vital bit of info... the résumé! It's easy to do... and it's a way of letting people know who you are - not just in the way that you write your messages or in which emoticon you decided to use today! It doesn't have to be a lot of writing... try putting in a piccie... be honest... be funny... but GET IT COMPLETED!! THIS IS IMPORTANT!! :o) Your piccie won't even be that distorted in later versions of FC! |
|||
| Step 1 |
Open up the FirstClass client... go online |
||
| Never posted anything before? | |||
| Step 2 | Click on "File" in the menu bar | ||
| Top | Step 3 | Select "Open" | |
| Step 4 | From the menu that appears, select "Résumé" | ||
| Posted messages before? | |||
| Step 2 | Find a message you've sent | ||
| Step 3 | Open it | ||
| Step 4 | Double click on your name in the "From" box | ||
| Both cases... a small form opens... | |||
| Step 5 | Type your name into the small white box at the top | ||
| Step 6 | In the main part of the form type stuff about yourself!! | ||
| Step 7 | When you're happy you've dished enough dirt about yourself... just close the form down! | ||

EASY
PEASY!!
|
||
| Add a piccie to the top left hand box... and become horribly distorted... FOREVER... | |||
| Step 1 | Open up a piccie of yourself - you might already have one scanned in, or one from a digital camera, maybe you're artistic and have "created" one in a graphics package... whatever! | ||
| Step 2 | Select the area of the piccie you want to use | ||
| Step 3 | Click on copy | ||
| Step 4 | Open up the FirstClass client... and go online | ||
| Step 5 | Open up your résumé (as you did when creating it originally) | ||
| Step 6 | In the small box, top left hand corner, right click | ||
| Step 7 | In the menu that appears, select paste | ||
| Step 8 | Gasp in horror at your horribly distorted picture!! | ||
|
Step 9 |
Close down your résumé... wait for others to laugh! | ||
| Top |
ALMOST
TOOOOOOOO EASY!
|
||
|
Bear
in mind that FirstClass only has a palette of 45 colours available for
you... so unless you're an absolute whizz with graphics - you will look
like a blotchy freak!!
|
|||
| Another way of getting a piccie on your résumé... if you've got FC 5.6 or above! | |||
| Step 1 | Open up your résumé | ||
| Step 2 | Right click in the main white area and select "Insert File..." | ||
| Step 3 | Browse until you find your piccie - make sure it's in an acceptable format (gif, jpeg or bmp) and not too big - something around 60KB-ish! | ||
| Top | Step 4 | Click on the piccie, and press "OK". Bingo! One okayish looking picture inserted! :o) | |

There
could well be an easier way that I don't know about... well I should know!
Give me a yell!
