Picking a Logo and Texture

One of the features of the BriargateExcel table manager is that you can personalize the table manager's forms to you and your organization.

Logo

Select a small (approximately 200x200 pixels) version of your organization's logo. Save it a jpg file in the same directory as the Excel file. Call it Logo.jpg. The table manager searches its home directory for Logo.jpg. If it finds one, it adds the logo to the upper right corner of each form.

Texture

Find a jpg file using Google Images that represents a texture for your forms' background. For example, search Google Images for "Blue Texture." I've found that a subtle texture looks best.

Color Selection

There is an extensive post in the BriargateExcel blog describing how to select a good pair of colors for your forms. Something that goes well with your logo and texture. The post (VBA UserForm Color Codes) describes how to specify the RGB colors for your forms. The details of setting up a Color Table in your Excel file are described in xxx.
