“Computer graphics refers to using a computer to create or manipulate any kind of picture, image, or diagram”. The process and art of combining text and graphics and communicating an effective message in the design of logos, graphics, brochures, newsletters, posters, signs, and any other types of visual communications. The five elements of lines, shapes, mass, texture, and colour are the building blocks of design for desktop publishers. Sometimes a designer uses a line alone to divide or unite elements on a page. Lines can denote direction of movement (as in diagonal lines and arrows) or provide an anchor to hold elements on a page (such as lines at the top, bottom, or sides of a page).
