Use the Create tool to make worksheets and more -
This is one of the easiest ways to use Scran images. Find an image you’d like to use and open it in the Record View. Look in the purple bar below the image for the Create link and click it. Follow the steps to choose a template, options, etc. Look for the OK button at each step – you might need to scroll down to find it. When your document is ready, look out for the Download PDF link which lets you see the finished item.

Make a slide show from an Album -
Have you stored images in an Album? View it as a slide show by choosing Slides from the View menu in the grey bar just above the images.

Cut and paste into Microsoft Word or Powerpoint -
Have a Microsoft Word or Powerpoint document open and ready. Find the Scran image you want and open the Full View. Right click on the image and choose to Copy it. Switch to your document. Right click again in some white space in your document and choose Paste. The picture will appear. On Mac computers you can normally just drag the image from the browser window into your document.

Edit an image in Microsoft Word or Powerpoint -
When the image appears, click once on it and small circles or squares called handles will appear round its edges. Click on one of the corner handles and drag it inwards or outwards to make the image bigger or smaller.

To edit the picture more click once on the image and choose View, Toolbars, Picture from the menus at the top of the window. A small toolbar appears containing tools to help you crop the image, add a border, etc. Try them out.

Share Through My Stuff

If you’ve made an Album in My Stuff you can share it with someone else who has also registered. Go to your Album and choose Copy Album from the Tools menu in the grey bar just above the images. Ask a friend in the room to tell you the username they chose when they registered for Stuff and type it into the username box in the form. Click OK and they’ll receive a copy of the Album.
