Thing # 9

What fun!! There were so many different online image generators to play with. For my first choice, I used the Custom Sign Generator. I tried several different choices and really liked the special effects one. This is a picture I took last summer in Corpus Christi at a shop by the beach. I love my digital camera!! I used the stars effect to make this a truly magical picture. First I downloaded a picture from my computer, then I chose the effect. To save the image, I right-clicked onto the image to save as. I saved it on my computer and then used the "add image" button on this post to attach it.


My second choice was the Happy Face Generator.What a cute idea to put into emails!!! I really did like it. It was pretty easy. Once I figured how to put the image where I wanted it, everything was fine. This one is very straight forward, you just follow the directions, but remember to "save as" on your computer, then you can use it whenever you want. I can see using these image generators at school and for my personal use.

I also really liked the Image Chef . I had some more fun with a picture of my favorite cat, Jasmine. Isn't she sweet?? This one took a while, because I couldn't decide which picture to use. I got a message on several that I tried to use, that the picture was too large, so I just tried another one till I got it right. On this one, you could choose the color of the writing and the background. You could also choose the text and the shape of the cutout. You did have to crop the picture to make it fit right. Then, of course, save it to your computer and there you go. Another really cool effect!!


So, I guess that is the end of my playing with the online image generators. It is very addicting, as I have done nothing today, but play on my computer!!

You've done great with the image tools! The picture of the shop looks a little like Disneyland with the magic touch. Keep up the good work, only 14 more things!

How did you get that music??? I was so shocked to hear Jason Castro's song pop up. I became a big fan of his during A Idol. I live in Rockwall about 4 houses down from him, so that made it very interesting. Unfortunately, I don't know them, never even see anyone coming or going, etc. Also, he used to sing on Lakepointe's worship team and I'd seen him there.

I love the pictures of Jasmine. I had a kitty that looked just like Jasmine, but Tieker went to "kitty heaven" 4 years ago. You've done a super job with the image tools.
