This tip is actually a video response to one of our members, Todd Doyle, and his question of “How to I make a clean, crisp, image for the bottom of my videos that shows my web address?”

I show two methods to do this:

1. Using simple Callouts in Camtasia Studio but adding a couple of design considerations to put a little flair into the mix…

2. Recognizing that Camtasia is not a full fledged graphics editor and pulling out a new graphics tool, the free to download and use PhotoShop alternative…GIMP.

GIMP is the GNU Graphics Manipulation Program. It’s a great addition to your toolbox!

I highly recommend you check it out.

Hope this helps!

Lon
