Hi Dandello:
Wow, somebody interested in the techie stuff! It is Microsft Power Point, for me part of the Office suite. The Superhero relationship stuff is in Excel (yeah, the accounting program).
I like Power Point for large complex stuff better than word because things stay where you put them. Start with the blank presentation and just start putting names and drawing lines. I admit I've had a lot of practice at it and do my Christmas letters in Power Point with family pictures.
To get it on the boards, I print it "best" and then scan it on a scanner at 300 pixels to make a .jpg file. For posting here I take the big picture (bighomegen) and use Arcsoft to reduce it to 600 pixels wide. I also need to "sharpen lightly" to get the small printing (12 point) to show up better.
Let me know anything else you want to know. The e-mail address is above.
regards
Artemis
I can e-mail you the original Power Point file if you want to play around with something similar. It might be useful for your Planes series.
