Not trust my USB with everything I make seeing it corrupted the original file.

Trying to make things look decent together and make many a line art.

Don't trust a USB for everything, use your USER FOLDER to save things in.

Not at all. Just let the students use their creative side.

Wallet

Self Reflection : This one requires a bit more explanation then the others. The Red and Black thing on the far left is something in a comic I read regularly called a Kernel Sprite. The next thing to the right are two faces of the same person. They are also from the comic I read (which is called Homestuck on mspaintadventures.com) and are probably by far my favorite character so far that has been introduced. They describe who I am because they are the more quiet of the group in the comic, and frankly I think purple is an awesome color.

The next symbols to the right that would be on the inside of the wallet represent the Alliance (Blue) and the Horde (Red). They are part of the MMORPG World of Warcraft. That describes me because that is one of my more popular past times at home. I put both on because, unlike some players, I like both factions and have played both.

The last two things on the wallet, where I expect is where the money goes, are Vault Boy and a Vault Door. They have to do with the game series Fallout, which is owned by Bethesda. The Fallout series is by far my favorite game series which is why I wanted to put it on my wallet. It describes me as I like fiction and am interested in apocalyptic stories.

Edit : I was told that those flap like things will be bent into the wallet, so I edited the images.

If you were to do this assignment again what would you do differently? (5 points)
Probably nothing, I think the end product came out well, all of the items on the wallet describe me in some way. The first 3 things on the left are from a web-comic that I read regularly and are one of the many interests I share with certain friends. The World of Warcraft faction banners show who I am. I play the living hell out of that game with decent people who act like I do. As for the last two images of a Vault Door and Vault Boy, they are from my favorite game series. It shows I like fiction and am interested in things like post apocalyptic times, even though I know living in those type of scenarios would royally suck.

What have you improved on by doing this assignment? (5 points)
How to edit and recreate images with Photoshop.

If you were to offer a future student advice about this assignment, what would it be? (5 points)
Nothing. It is a personal assignment so there's not really anything I can suggest.

Do you have any suggestions for me the teacher if I assign this assignment again? (5 points)
Physically show what parts of the wallet are what. Even with the video I was still confused of what parts needed to be covered with something. It took me and the person next to me to have a slight idea of what other parts needed to be covered.

Bishop Pocock Poster Thing

Edit : Self Reflection

To be frank when I was making the outline for this poster I was dragging lines across the screen, like abstract art. I ended up erasing some lines, dragged more, then picked some pictures. For each section of the picture I made an overlay layer to enhance the picture.

Overall I like the way it turned out, but I find it still a bit to white.

If you were to do this assignment again what would you do differently? (5 points)
Find some magical way to make the pictures that are on pure white paper become less white.

What have you improved on by doing this assignment? (5 points)
I adopted the way of using the magic wand tool to make area covers so I could focus on one area of the poster at a time.

If you were to offer a future student advice about this assignment, what would it be? (5 points)
Use less white in the poster, or use a more vibrant, creative color where putting the text, but still readable.

Do you have any suggestions for me the teacher if I assign this assignment again? (5 points)
Frankly the only problem I had with this assignment was that we had to include student artwork. Next time the artwork may hopefully be on many different colors of paper it was difficult to customize it, I tried putting color overlays to hopefully change some of the white to no avail.

Name Thing

Edit : Self Reflection

Some of the things you had to do were things I never had to do in Photoshop before, but overall with the help of some peers I learned how to do them.
Personally I somewhat like the way the result turned out.

If you were to do this assignment again what would you do differently? (5 points)
I would probably practice with the tools to reacquaint myself with them before I plunge head first into the assignment.

What have you improved on by doing this assignment? (5 points)
I learned how to use a majority of the tools doing this assignment thanks to both you, nearby people, and trial and error.

If you were to offer a future student advice about this assignment, what would it be? (5 points)
Use many a paths when making your letters and just copy gradients and layer effects onto other letters and layers.

Do you have any suggestions for me the teacher if I assign this assignment again? (5 points)
Not really, just maybe find an easier way to make the letters if this is going to be the first project for students again.
