Not just homework....

This class has been really fun, I've like all the assignments so far....except for the alien ones....and some of the writing assignments. But what I really like is that I have started an online portfolio....and all the assignments and projects I've created in this class had really helped me create a variety of compositions that have helped me extend my portfolio range of skills and the diversity of the ways I personally have been able to use Adobe. Now I'm having a problem of sorting through all my projects and narrowing them down...because I have so many options. Which has been such an unexpected blessing! lol

Even blogger has been a helpful assignment! For my internship I have to keep a journal of my daily tasks, learned skills and so forth. And this assignment has forced me to learn how to use blogger and now I have on already created that I can use for my internship journal.

I do have one critique or.... more a suggestion. For every project that I have to post I have to convert it to a JPEG or GIF (not PDF for some reason these won't load), but this task of converting each one has been time consuming and a PAIN. So my suggestion is to require (like for the mini projects) for us to do it to each finished assignment (minus the aliens). This would make the process faster and might encourage us to create our portfolios throughout the year which I think for at least the APST students would be a huge help and extremely useful! Just a thought....

Also if anyone has an quick tips to convert each to a JPEG etc please let me know.... as of now I am just going under file>convert to web devices
