To make a poster about the solar system using the Poster Wizard:

Step 1: Pick Your Poster Size.

Choose a size that will best fit your poster layout. I chose a vertical layout to display my solar system poster. Upload a picture of the solar system.

Step 2: Pick a Background Color.

You want the color to enhance, but not overpower your information or clip art images. I chose a black background to let my information stand out against it. 

Step 3:  Add a Title.

This is the main point I want to get across. This is where you want to grab attention so be creative and reinforce your poster’s theme. I used orange quick letters and then layered blue quick letters on top for SOLAR SYSTEM. I added the word OUR with orange foam letters and angled it a little over SOLAR SYSTEM. I then added the names of all the planets bordering the left, bottom and right hand side of the poster with red foam letters. 

Step 4:  Add Images.

Now you can add your image of the solar system in the center of your poster with a colored border. Adjust the size for a pleasing layout.

Step 5:  Add Shapes.

Now is when you can add your creative elements to your poster. I added neon blue star shapes between the names of the planets. I also added an orange star shape to sit inside the center of the “O” in SOLAR.

Step 6: Now you are ready to SAVE and FINISH.

When you are finished, your poster will be sent to you by email. Then you can decide how you would like to print out your poster.
