2/16/2010 "LUNAPIC"

Today we worked on photo editing. Our instructor had us go online and find for cites that does picture editing. Well, i chose the cite "lunapic.com" i thought is was hard at first, but when i get to play with it, it was very interesting. It is a great cite in my opinion because it does not ask for personal information. It's free, and you can go to it anytime. It has great animations, effects, frames, and all other tools to customize your image. it can turn your image into something totally different from the original image. For example, if i load up a picture that shows only the face. i can actually make the eyes blink. another is, if you load up pictures that has a date on the bottom, or any words posted on the picture, you can actually delete it and the original picture will seem like there were no words on it.

This cite has it negative and positive. The psitive i have just talked about, now the negative part about this cite is that if you have a slow computer, it will take you forever to edit your picture, the reason why is that everytime you make a change to a picture, it loads up automatically sort of like refreshing the window over and over again. That is the only negative part that i know when exploring the cite.

overall, on a scale of 1-10, i would definately give it a 10, because i had a fast internet loading, i had no problem with it. :) THIS CITE IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED if dealing with editing pictures!

2/9/2010 FLICKR

Today we worked on the cite http://www.flickr.com/. We uploaded pictures that we want to post, then we created a flickr badge. It took some time for the pictures to load, although it was worth the wait. This cite is awesome if you like to deal with pictures. Before, when i was taking art class, we had to create a flickr account to post up are drawings that we did in class. So this is a good idea for art class, like if you drew a picture in class or had any assignments that deals with drawing, we can post it on the flickr cite and so the ART works would be shared to anyone, and everyone. This is a great way to share art works and other visual pictures, and it gives a chance for the people to comment on the art work.

ZOHO DOCS

1) explain the assignment. Our group chose to do Docs. We had to figure out how to work it, then we would present it in class.

2) How easy/ dificult was the project you worked on? It was dificult at first, but once you start playing with the buttons on the screen, i started to figure it out quick.

3) How do you think your student would benefit from your project? I think it will benefit them well, once they are familiar with the cite and know what to do, this cite will help them get organized with their files and folders.

4) Rate the software zoho on the scale of 1-10. i would rate this a 10 because in my opinion, it can help me get organize. and it can help the students get organize as well. this will make my life easier, because i do not have to look through alot of folders in order to find my documents.. It is as easy as it can be... JUST a click and you find your files!

2/2/10 ZOHO

Today we did an online project. The cite is www.zoho.com. we had to get familiarize with WRITER, SHEET, SHOW, and DOCS. We worked in groups. I am new at this cite, and it was complicated at first, but as we played around with it, it starts to work just like any other cite.. it's not rocket science. This cite works just the same as hotmail or any other email, except the only difference that i know is that we can edit a document. I love this cite, i think i will use it for other things, or class.. because it very organized.
