    Argh round labels - driving me insane!

    I've managed to print them perfectly before using Herma labels. I bought another pack and they don't seem to line up correctly using the Herma template. I have decided to try again and ordered some labels from labels direct as they seemed to have good reviews. I've downloaded the illutsrator...

    Live Trace Illustrator

    Thanks so much Scotty, that seemed to work for some reason. I haven't a clue where I was going wrong. I even opened other images and traced them fine.

    This is going to be a silly question...

    This is going to be pretty simple and I am obviously missing something here but I am wanting to recreate the pattern here. I am not talking about the layout of the dots. I know how to create a polka dot pattern within illustratoor by first starting off with a gold circle... but what I cannot...

    Wordpress, child theme and Dreamweaver

    I think the best thing to do for me is to pick a theme and just use it as it is for now with a bit of customiation through WP and then take a css course online possibly. I want a shop on my site too and with all this messing about I haven't even got the hompage lookng as I want it yet :/
