Graphics  By : Harishankar Krishnan 7MKR INVESTIGATION  Identify the Problem  We must use GIMP to create a collage of pictures.

Explain the Problem

We must make a collage using pictures of us from age 0 ti how old we are now (11, 12) and then use online aging software to create images of myself when I am older. Eg. 15, 20, 25.....
Research and Analysis = Research = We will spend half a lesson looking at on-line ageing software programs such as [], [],. the biggest problem I will have will be in finding a free aging online software package.

Place the pictures from your skills exercises here and explain what you learnt about GIMP and what new words you have learnt. Design Brief Create a collage of pictures of themselves using the graphics package ** Gimp 2.8.2 **

Product Specification My product must: > be 1200 pixels by 1200 pixels > have 5 different pictures of myself from a baby to 12 years old > have 1 picture of myself now. > have 8 pictures of me ranging from 15 to 80 years old. I will use online ageing software to do this. > Have each picture on a separate layer. > have Each layer named. > have my name on the collage on a separate layer > Be flattened when finished. > be saved as a jpeg file less than 500kb in size Test Plan 1. i can check that my final product is 1200x1200 by checking in the file ew section 2. i can make sure I scan more than 5 pictures of myself 3.i an take a picture of myself now and put it on the final product 4. i can use the online aging software to make the 8 images of myself 5. i can use the option open as new layers to do this. 6. i can double click on the current name and then change it to what i want it to be called. 7. i can use the text tool to put my name on the final product. 8. i can right click on a layer and click the option flatten image 9.when i export the file, i can make ure that it is less then 500 kb is size. DESIGN  Pictures of my designs Analysis of my designs I think my designs are not specific enough. I could have put some color into it so I know what colors certain things could look like. On the other hand, I put in the correct number of pictures and I labeled all of the "items"that I had drawn in my designs. These things are an advantage to me because then when I do my final product, I know exactly where and what every item that I used to decorate my designs of my final product. Justification for chosen design The design that I will do as my final product is Design 2
 * My Collage Must:

I chose Design 2 from all the others because I think that it has much more detail than the other designs. I also think that it has more reason with time travel. That means that I think that the pictures in design 2 means more about time travel since there are catapults and other things like that in my drawings. I also like the location of where I put the pictures because I think that they will stand out more than the locations of where I put the other PLAN Period 5 || Create || * Follow plan and use digital copies soft copies, || I need to do this quickly or my create will be overdue!!! || 22/11/2012 || Design || * Complete the design stage || computer, internet || I didn't finish my design stage on time. || 26/11/12 || Plan || * Add more detail in the Plan stage || computer, internet || I have done the task on time :D ||

CREATE  Final Product Changes made to the original Design The changes that I made to my design is that I put only 2 pictures of me in the future. The reason for this is that I couldn't get the correct ages of me in the future because ageme.com was not working properly and I didn't know how to make it work. So I now have 2 images of me in the future via in20years.com. I also didn't follow the mail layout of my designs. I didn't put as many images as I wanted or even glance back at the product specifications. Changes made to the original Plan  I didn't follow my plan because I always found myself preoccupied with other homework and entertainment items. I should really focus a lot more on my homework and the plan that I put on my wiki spaces. EVALUATE  Results of tests == everything that i put on my test plan was accomplished except 8 images of me in the future. i have it is 1200x1200, i have 5 images of me in the final product,i have an image of me now, i have each image on a separate layer, i have named each of my layers, i have put my name on the final product, i have flattened the image and i have exported my final product in less that 500 KB. ** Recommendations for improvement ** == =i can try to do some of it at home and also put more EFFORT!!! I really can do better and I think the first priority will be to do more of my work at home rather than trying to complete everything in one tiny I.C.T lesson.= Self-evaluation of your execution of the design cycle == The way I would have changed the way I follow the design cycle is by not doing a plan because I would already know what I would have had to for that lesson or what I need to do for homework. It would just be no different to do the plan or not do the plan. I don't think the plan stage would be necessary. ==
