Week+Six+Digital+Images

This week is all about images and playing with them. Just about everyone over the age of 10, (and some younger) now has a camera in their pocket via their phone. In some cases though
 * The images might be too large
 * You might want to crop or remove parts of them
 * You might want to do some basic, (or more complicated), manipulation
 * You might want to add text, stickers or other features
 * You just might want to be creative

Images can be edited off-line, online and within your device. Your task this week is to "play" with one or more of these image editors to "create" and embed interesting images in your blog. The two most popular places to store images are [|Flickr] and [|Picasa]. With both you can sign up for a free basic account and/or then pay a fee for increased space. If you are interested you can [|access my Flickr Photosream.] Often students, (and others) mistakenly believe all images on Flickr, (or even the Internet generally), can be used freely. This is __** NOT **__ the case as all content on the internet unless expressly stated is ** copyright by default **. [|Pics4Learning] and [|PhotoPin] have some copyright free images and [|IconArchive] and the [|Open Clip Art library] have clipart.
