hi there in this video I'll be showing you how to make free word clouds with
different shapes and we'll be using this example here we'll be using word art
which is a free service and let's go to create I've done a video already on
all the different things you can do with this all the different shapes and fonts
and layout and things so I'll put a link to that below this video and in this
video I'm going to show you how to use a custom shape so I'll go over to iconfinder
and I'll do a search for spaceship I want to make sure that we
can use it for free so I'll click this free here and if you like you can select
something here so if we're using it for commercial use then select this one and
I think these look quite good you can use them in your blog and in your social
media I think they attract people's attention
and another way if you are not using them for commercial use let some kids
make them during the holidays school holidays or something so I found this
one here all these are free but I do want something fairly simple so I use
this if it's too complicated like this it won't work so I chose this one
click on download the PNG file is best and that's downloaded let's go over to
word art and we'll go to shapes and click here add image browse for it look
at my downloads and here's the shape so let's double click here you can adjust
some things and you've just got to practice what works in this case right up here
works better
and up here so we'll click okay and
let's just visualize that to check it
that's worked okay next thing we need to do is put some nice words on it I'll
delete these words at the moment the default is just word art but we don't
need that so I'm going to clear those and then I'm going to go over to this
place microstockgroup.com tools
and I'll put a link to this below in the description and I'll do a search
for spaceship
let's click all of those because they might have relevant words and click
Submit and that will just extract all of the words the keywords that people
have used on those images and let's just select about 20 of these that fit
you can do more if you like I think at least 20 is good so I've got 20 there
and click on that if you click on them it highlights them then ctrl C will copy
them and then go back here and I'll click on import words put them in here
and click import let's just visualize that again
looks pretty good let's just see if we want to make some changes with the fonts
this picture isn't very dark especially this gray here is quite light so I think
it's good to choose some bold fonts if you hold down the ctrl key then can
select all these bold ones all the ones that look dark here just to make sure
that the image looks dark I think that's enough
I'll also go to layout and I'll choose a different one in my last video I used
this random so in this one I'll use this one here and let's click visualize
yep I'm happy with that one thing I do like to do sometimes is if I go here
the number of words I'll go on to define
and then this has used more than 600 words and some of them are very small
and if you just bring this down it deletes the very small words and I
think it just makes the image look a bit clearer if you go too far it's no good
but if you just come up a bit maybe 150 to 200 words let's try that I think that
looks better we can also just make the background stand out a bit more if we
want let's have a look if you do it too much then you can't see the words so we'll
just make it where it stands out maybe that looks good in this case I think
that looks fine I'm happy with that so I'm just going to download it and click
on this one this is the free one standard quality so I've clicked
download and that's the new image so as I say I think actually I think for kids
it would be quite good but also you can use these in your blog and social media
just to get people's attention so if you liked the video please give you a thumbs
up and that will help other people to see it I'll put any links to all of this
in the description below and I'll also make a transcription of this put it on
my blog together with some screenshots and I'll put a link to that below as well so
