Thing #10: Play with an Online Image Generator

ImageChef.com - Custom comment codes for MySpace, Hi5, Friendster and more

Online image generators allow you to easily manipulate text, image and graphics to create fun images like the one above, or like these:


For this discovery exercise, you can have some fun. Find a few fun image or text generators to play around with and write a post in your blog about one of your favourites. Make sure that you display your newly generated image in your blog posting. Often it will be a matter of copying and pasting some code. If not, you might just need to right-click on the image and then save it to your hard drive before using Blogger's image button to add it to your post.

If you're having difficulty getting your image added to a post in your blog, then check other participant's blogs and ask someone who has succeeded for some help.


Discovery Resources:
The Generator Blog

... or search on Google for others!


Discovery Exercise:
1. Play around with some image generators and find one that you like.
2. Post the result of your discovery in your blog. Please be sure to include a link to the image generator itself, so other participants can discover it, too!

So, take some time, and have some fun!
