You Oughta Be In Pictures # 91: Fun With Photos



Excercise 1. See above photos

You Oughta Be In Pictures #89: Basic Photo Editing


Excercise 1. I uploaded a photo to Picnik of Sam the dog I found at the library. I used one editing tool, red eye to fix the red eyes on Sam. I added text to the photo. That is the creative tool I used.
Excercise 2. With the number of photos I take that have red eyes, I'm sure the red eye feature would be an important feature to use. I think the cropping feature would be another important feature as would be the sharpeining feature. I found Picnik an easy website to use. I registered on Photoshop and could not figure out how to use it.

You Oughta Be in Pictures # 90: Sharing Photos

Exercise 1 and 2: I watched the video on photo sharing and browsed the sites.
Exercise 3: I think the most important features would be how easy it is to use a prticular website. Security is right up there, too. I'm not sure how secure any of these sites are once you send your photos out but I guess one must just get used to it. The copyright/creative commons options would be important to me as an artist. If I had manipulated a photo into a work of art, I would not want someone else to claim my masterpiece as their own. These sites seem to make it easy to share photos on the social networking sites. The photo gifts would be fun too.
