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.
