    I think this is very nice to do with your class!! My concern is that I have only 3 computers!!!

    A success is that I finally got the pic I want on my blog. A stressor was getting the square pic to fit in a rectangle hole.

    I really enjoyed learning how to use Photoshop and the segment on PDF files. My frustrations come from the pace that the class is moving when we’re learning a new peocedure.

    This seems fairly straight forward. In three weeks when I am having problems working through it may I yell for help?

    One thing I accomplished was adding a customized header to my blog and an avatar. One thing that frustrated me was the photoshop instruction.

    One thing that frustrated me today was not being able to log into my blog! However, creating my AVATAR was fun and I felt very successful with that!
    I’m sorry you were frustrated with edublogs. I’m glad you had fun making your avatar.–Ms. Mercer

    The avatar activity has been informative and fun because I like graphics. I used to work with Adobe Photo Shop, but I haven’t used it for quite some time, so this experience has been helpful.
    I still have quite a high level of frustration when it comes to managing my blog; I feel a bit more comfortable today, and I think with time, I will be able to catch on–hopefully.

    I found success in creating my avatar, but found frustration when I tried to upload my avatar onto my Blog.

    I thought there was a lack of explicit instruction on the materials for today. I was looking for more tools. I was glad to get a flash drive.

    I’m sorry this was not explicit enough. I’m glad you like the flash drive. I hope we can do better next time.–Ms. Mercer

    Hey Fred, this is another way for the blog owner to comment, but if I have 30+ comments, it would be too far away from your original comment.
