Welcome.
You could also browse others� worksheets, find a format you like, and then ask the contributor if it�s O.K. to use their contribution as a template. Of course you need to insert your own content, but if the document is already in a format that you would like to use, and if the contributor says it�s O.K., you could save time and learn that way.
Microsoft Word, even the 1997 version, is perfectly good enough to insert images, Word-Art and Auto-shapes.
I usually save my files as �Word 97-2003� format before uploading here.
I do that as the latest version of Word uses a more user-friendly menu layout when opening files of that format.
I do not usually make particularly colouful worksheets (as at work I have to make many, many copies of only black&white).
However, you have my permission to download and then use anything of mine as a template.
I very rarely download from here - I am not trying to increase my points as I never need them.
If I had a way to give you colouful templates, and if I knew what kind of layouts you were trying to create, I would give you some files.
