    b. Picture:

As discussed above this is the second source from where pictures can be added in a page. But these pictures are not preset. You can say ,this is your personal collection of pictures. So first of all store the pictures in any location (  any drive of your computer – C, D etc or in Desktop or My Pictures area). Next go to insert menu and choose picture option there.  Select the specific picture , thereby the picture will be added over the page. After the picture addition we can modify it by selecting it first and go to format menu , apply the required tools there. Such as picture effects , picture border, picture shape, brightness, contrast, re-colour, crop etc.

It is  function using which we can make the picture in a page flexible and mouldable. Because after the picture addition over the page ( either from clip art or from my picture area) , to make the object movable , choose the picture first , select format option and from there choose text wrapping option – inside which we are getting various features like in front of the text, behind the text, square, in  line with text, tight etc. Text wrapping option can be used to put text and picture together.
