I have extracted the three background images from the ACEU14 presentation. They are not possible to morph. They are JPEGs and there is no reasonable way to extract pieces and morph the logo and conference name.
My plan is to produce three new ones of these and slide them into the ODP in place of the current ones. But I will have to do it from scratch. What I need very badly, if there are not already drawing components that were used for ACEU14, is the feather. Just the feather. Preferably black-and-white and a resizable graphic at that. I need it in 72 hours (that's 2015-03-25T01:44Z) I am simply going to default on this. - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Dennis E.

If not I am seriously stuck. Morphing the jpegs directly strikes me as a Waiting to Fail. I would rather fail now, though I have no great Plan B. And I love Nick's feather image. - Dennis PS: "Hey, you know that simple change you wanted?

I am adapting ACEU 2014 for ACNA 2015 as easily as possible. I assume that any IP issue is solved when the image is replaced. I'm also assuming, based on silence, that this template was used and none had a problem with it. If there is a particular place to upload it, I need to know about that too. - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: shaposh...@gmail.com [mailto:shaposh...@gmail.com] On Behalf Of Roman Shaposhnik Sent: Saturday, March 21, 2015 10:05 To: ComDev Cc: Dennis Hamilton; Melissa Warnkin Subject: Re: ACNA Presentation Template Sorry for jumping into the discussion late, but is there a chance for [semi-]official templates to be available for ACNA15?
