July 29th building in RW












For the group project I was in a group with Paul and John to build a trailer. John did most of the trailer design and Paul built most of the pickup truck. I decided to add to the house by building a mailbox. The group worked together to add suggestions. At the end of class, we all took a picture by the pool on the deck.

Rocket-ish











So, i was logged into RocketWorld but got kicked out 2 times. On the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th times, i was stuck in the water and couldnt get out. When i finally got in again, i took screen shots so i could post to the blog. RocketWorld quit on me again right after. I will try to get in again tonight to delete my rocket.

Midterm 8


For this exercise i took a picture of myself from last summer and did some editing. The top photo is the edited copy. First, i smugged out a scar that i have above my left eye. I also smugged a freckle that i have on my chin. I then turn on the blur tool and chose opacity 90% and blurred my smile lines and my forehead where my head was pealing. I didnt want to make drastic changes, but i think espcially with the smile lines on the right side of my face (left side in picture) and with the scar you can see the results.


Midterm 7


Here is and image of Reese Witherspoon as a .jpg file. I used the marquee tool to make her eyes from the image provided, and resized it to about half of the original size. I then used the rectangle tool to add a black rectangle at the bottom. I first added "all your media are belong to us" and selected a bright color. I then added "Web3D Web" in bolder letters but a less bold color. I then added the bottom line and made sure it was not longer than the second line. I tried to upload the .psd file but received a message that blogger does not accept .psd files.

Roll Call #1 #2 July 20, 2010




Assignments 1,2,3,4























For this assignment I started at step one and created and oval image and did a red gradiant background. I then inserted a text box and typed my name, adding a shadow effect and changing the color and font. I then added the "bump in from left" effect.


For assignment two I created a ball image and also a rectangular image. I made the ball image look like a basketball and changed the background to a blue color. I made the line around the ball black and then added the "bounce" effect to it.

For assignment three i changed the background to a purple color and inserted two images. The first image is a wine glass that is animated to shake. Once the glass has finished shaking, the wine bottle swings in for a refill.

For assignment four i started by creating another oval image and using three colors and the gradiant tool to create a pink and purple background. I also changed the background for the whole image. I then typed my name in, changed the color and font, and added the "in from right" effect. I then went to the Page, add a page for the second part. Here, I created a purple square and changed its line to 3point and made it pink. I then added the "horizontal sweep" effect. I then created a text box and put the word BOING in it, and added the "vertical up" effect. For the final part, I added another page, and create a square image and made it grey for ice. I then inserted a hockey puck and added the "rotate out in" effect to it. I then added a text box saying "drop the puck" and made the writing maroon and gave it the colored glow effect.

After each assignment, I exported the image to check it, and then uploaded the file to my google site shown here:

Midterm 10



For midterm 10 i created a house. I played with the shapes and pattern tools to create the actual house. I then used the drawing and scribble tools to create a sun and a cat. I used the hourglass icon and then copy and pasted it to create a fence effect. I also created individual rectangles with a pattern and then put them in a pattern to create a walk way.

Midterm 9



For this exercise, I followed the instructions to create a diagram. I then played with line colors and fill colors to change the way the diagram looked. when I finished the exercise, I took a snapshot of it in word and then copied and saved it into the paint program.

Midterm 6



















For the penguin exercise I opened a new file and made it a transparent layer. I then wrote my name on top of the layer. After i opened, copied, and pasted the penguin image, and then anchored it into my first document. I then used the layers toolbar to move the penguin image to be behind my name. I then save the image as a PNG.
For the second part, using GIMP 2.6, i went to file -> create -> logo -> text circle. In the box that came up, I inserted my name into the "text" area. Then, I created the animation by using the rotation box starting at a 45 degree angle and then anchored it. I then repeated those steps three times, increasing the angle by 10 degrees. I then saved the image as an animation and a GIF file, clicked the loop forever tab, and increased delay to 500 milliseconds.

Midterm 5




JPEG (top), PNG (bottom)
I followed the video and saved this image as a JPEG progressive image. I then saved the image as a PNG interlaced image. This gives both the illusion of downloading faster than they actually are.

Roll call 2 July 13











For the last hour of class I worked on midterm 9. I created a diagram of the lesson from class showing that JPEG, GIF and PNG are all different types of Bitmaps. I also created a box header with the course title and my name in it. At the end of class, i minimized my white board screen and took a snapshot of both my midterm 9 and of roll call. Both are shown here.

Midterm 3

















I opened this file and wrote my name on it. Then I saved the file as a GIF, JPEG and PNG.

Midterm 2





For this exercise i added the caption "Cynthia Manke says Samus is a trouble maker." I did so by selecting the "select region" tool and drawing a box at the top. I then followed the directions and chose the same font but a blue color to write the caption.

ROLL CALL #1 FOR JULY 13

For this image i selected the eyedrop and clicked on the water bottle to the far right. I then zoomed in to 400% and made the red areas a dark blue, which was close to his original eye color.
