Picture Styles One of the new features in Microsoft Office 2007 is Picture Styles. You can format the picture to have a border, shadow, or a reflection.   Try it: select the picture and use the Picture Effects. The Reflection creates a light, mirror image. Is the reflection light enough to use as a background behind the text?   William Alexander was a famous oil painter who taught on PBS Public Television. He taught, "Light on light gives you nothing. Dark on dark gives you nothing. You need dark on light!” You may want to try some other enhancements on the picture to make the type more legible. Look in the Adjust Group for the Recolor options to fade or wash out a picture.
