Thing #9



This was the first image I created using an online image generator. I had fun playing around with this technology. It is very habit forming. I created this through smile maker @http://www.txt2pic.com/comic-strip/smile.htm. It was very easy to do. I picked which smile type I wanted and then I typed in the text and title and that was it.

The next image I created was through Image Chef @ http://www.imagechef.com/. It was very easy also. I picked a template, which was signs, and then I picked the taxi sign to customize. I typed in the text and saved. How easy could this be!!

I could use image generators when creating handouts and other materials for my class. It would add humor and at the same time remind students of deadlines or assignments. I could use the sign maker to remind them of things on tests and insert the image in my document where needed. Again, this is going to be great for creating personal calendars and lists for myself. They won't look so plain anymore.
