GRAPHICS Year 7ksc   (how can computers predict how we will look in the future)    By : Shin-young kim   Skills Exercise INVESTIGATION  Identify the Problem How can computers predict on how we are changing?

The problem is that we don't know how to use graphics using Gimp. We also don't know how we will look like in a few years time and we don't know how to use the software. I had research a few online software's such as www.ageme.com and www.in20years.com. and one of the problems for www.ageme.com was that we had to pay dollars for tokens. so now i am going to use www.in20years.com.

[], [], Research and Analysis www.ageme.com and www.in20years.com.

Analysis of my designs the design will be 1200 pixels by 1200 pixels wide. it will have 8 pictures of me from 2-100 years old. each layer will be named and have a picture on that layer. __**design 1**__ it has blue background 14 pictures of me from 2-100 years old and it looks a bit plain with only simple rainbow colors. Justification for chosen design I chose design 3 because.... design 2 would be hard for me to draw the little monsters and the path with grass and bushes on the side so it will cause confusion and difficulty for me to do this design 2. design one seemed a little boring to look and and plain so i chose design 3 design 3 is just right for me except i need to draw it by not using straight line because i cant find the straight line user in gimp.so it will be a challenge for me to draw the straight lines. and the design 3 relates to aging because it has these convierbelts that shows it going to the future and moving on. PLAN CREATE  Final Product Changes made to the original Design i changed a few things first of all i didnt use ageme.com or in20years.com when it was due so i only have 3 pictures. another thing is i changed the background to rainbow colors because one color would be plain. Changes made to the original Plan  ageme.com i didnt use it because we had to pay. in20years.com i didnt use it becuase i tottaly forgot about it so i only have 3 pictures of me not aged.! EVALUATE  Results of tests i will upload the scan i got from the people who tested my product

Recommendations for improvement i could improve my getting a bit more organized because i only had a few photo's on my memory stick but not the photo's that were aged because i forgot to save it onto my memory stick at home. i could have used after-schools or break-times to finish it off but i had activities. I could also have met the deadline properly and use my time wisely in class.because i spend a lot of time designing painting and coloring on gimp. but i didn't use my time on my photo's. i should have came in after school to finish and put a few more pictures in but aged. Self-evaluation of your execution of the design cycle  i should have used my time wisely to finish off my assessment!! because i would or will get a Big fat zero or 1-2.
