Nicely said! I have a friend who is absolutely phenominal using Scrippy. It takes more than real talent to do what she does. She has to have her math skills down. Same with the complicated OE stationery. You need to know your math to put in the equations to make things work and come together. I have seen some absolutely gorgeous stationeries! And - there is nothing worse than someone who puts together a piece that you can't read. They put too small of a font, or a font that is hard to read - or colors that just don't work. This is what makes the world go around!! Different programs for different uses!!

Incredimail is just another program and not a talent. Real stationery made by folks who use Outlook Express is beautiful and creative. Those people have real talent. It takes much time and practice to make a good stationery. Those who use dark colors on dark text (or light on light)are not experienced makers, neither is anyone who makes stationery you cannot read. But I know using stationery is not a popular viewpoint outside stationery groups so I understand what you mean and why you have that view and that is fine too. Still, it is what I want and I will keep Outlook Express until something else comes along that will permit homemade stationery as we know and love it.
