Hi erialcrobo,

If you want to insert clipart into a 'shape' object (which can include a
circle):
. right-click on the object
. click 'Add text'
. now use Insert|Picture|Clipart, etc to insert the clipart into the shape.

If you have a circle that is a bitmap image, you can't insert clipart into
it. You can, however, insert the clipart into document, the use
Format|Picture|Layout|Square, after which you can drag/reposition the
clipart over the bitmap.

Cheers

Select your shape, fill, fill effects, picture tab. You might to check the size
of your image, it will be somewhat skewed if it isn't approximately the same
size as the autoshape.
