Making a website with Google!!

Can you believe it?
I built a website with Google!! It wasn't that hard ether. Google makes everything so simple for you. They are very user friendly!! I like the way I can connect all of the forms, and spreadsheets and presentations that I created earlier and put them in my website!! I know my instructor planned it all out like that, because she knew we were going to put it all together, but It still is so cool!! The Website just put all the "Cloud computing" parts in prospective. Everything can go together as well as making it all so simple.
My website is a fictitious school of the arts. In some ways I wish it wasn't fictitious because it sounds so very cool. The name of it is Georgetown School of the Arts. The website I created for it is: https://sites.google.com/site/artswheaton
check it out and see how several of my earlier blogs photo's were put into it!
I have really enjoyed this class and I plan to use these new found skill to set up a Family Reunion site or something. Besides for my personal use I feel all these skills should come in handy when I am able to achieve employment at some time in the future.
Have a great Summer!

Sumo Paint: Photo Enhancemant

Hi everyone!!

I LOVE SUMO PAINT PHOTO ENHANCEMENT!!! I had a really great time with working with sumo. I love all the options on how to make it look the way you want, and to be able to layer images to when you are working on one level you don't mess up the others if you make a mistake. On one image when I was putting color to it by erasing it, I thought I did a great job with the eraser, until I put a spot light effect on it. It showed all my flaws!! luckily I could touch it up a little still. The fetcher that I really learned to love was the Clone Stamp!! and the eye dropper so I could paint the color I want to. Those two really made a big difference when it comes to covering up what you don't want in the photos!! One image I did actually looked better in the negative, and then I enhanced it with other stuff. Most of the photos turned out really good. I can't wait until I work on my own photos!! I tried the PhotoFunia, I think you will find it cute. The wanted poster!! while on vacation we paid about $45 for my kids to be put on a wanted poster, and here I did it all for free!! And I didn't have to change into some old time clothes!!! Once again I really enjoyed this weeks assignments! enjoy the photos.

Sumo Paint Basics

Hi again,

I tried Sump Paint this week. I took me a bit to get the hang of it. I had some trouble trying to fix what I didn't like. Sometimes I would use "edit" and "undo" and it would work, other times it wouldn't. Then I would hit "clear" and that got me to ground zero. Working with different layers can be tricky, but I think it will be helpful when blending different photos together. I am glad to be having trouble with images that are not a major project for me. It helps me learn what to do with less stress.

The Different ways to manipulate the images is really cool. I don't think I can do all that with other programs I have worked with. So All in all I do like Sumo, I just have to keep practicing to get good at it.
Here are some images I created. Let me know how you liked them!
