Tips: Creating picture bullets

Are you getting bored of bullet lists. They are everywhere! Advertisements, reports, articles, Web sites, this newsletter. And it's always the same thing: black dot, text. black dot, text. black dot, text. Sheesh!

Well, Microsoft Word can help you add a little jazziness to your bulleted lists. And it's so simple!

  1. In your Word document, click the Format menu.
  2. Select Bullets and Numbering. The Bullets and Numbering dialog box appears.
  3. Select the second option (black dot) and click Customize. The Customize Bullet Lists appears.
  4. In the Customize Bullet Lists dialog box, click Picture. The Picture Bullet dialog box appears. You can select from one of the hundreds of existing bullets; or you can make your own from a photo, drawing, etc. (Remember, however, that a bullet is only 15x15 pixels, so you can't use the Mona Lisa as a bullet)
  5. Click OK. Now, whenever you click the Bullet button on the toolbar, your new bullet appears.

    Thank you, D. Hill, for this tip!
