I manipulated My Camera angle to take a picture of my avatar from the front and cropped the image to remove the extraneous Fire Fox browser elements and re-sized the image using Photoshop. An example of the process is shown below.

Mid Term 3 - John Hardiman - Save as different web formats

GIFF

jpeg

PNG   
I saved the file Ball.tif to my desktop and the opened it with Photoshop.  I selected Save as and selected the file format jpeg from the drop down format window.  When I hit save a window launched where I had to select the image quality between 1 and 12 and selected progressive.  There is a file size indication down the bottom of the panel that also lets you select the download speed to see the time it will take.  I checked different resolutions and settled on 8.
 I opened the file again and selected save as GIF format.  Photoshop forces you to save it as a copy. I then had to select black and white or colors forced to select primaries, web, or custom.  I picked web and clicked the box to preserve exact colors.  A window popped up asking normal or interlaced.  I chose the latter.
I opened the file once again and saved it as a PNG format file.  I had to select interlaced or non interlaced.

Roll Call 2 Class 3 - John Hardiman

In Class 3 we worked on Gimpshop Fundamentals including removing Red Eye from a photograph

Mid Term 2 - John Hardiman- Added a Caption in Photoshop

Here I added a caption to a photo by selecting a rectangular area using the select area tool in Adobe Photoshop and filling it with white by selecting edit then fill and selecting white.  In Photoshop I could have also done this by selecting the color white as the foreground color and using the rectangle tool.to create a block.  Then I used the type tool to insert a caption.

Mid term 1 - John Hardiman - Removed Red Eye Photo

I downloaded this picture into adobe Photoshop and using the Paintbrush feature wrote my name on the photo. I first selected a color that would stand out from the rest of the picture.  I then used the navigator feature to enlarge the image to 600%. Next I used the eye dropper tool to select color from the eye.  Using a 3 pixel brush I colored over all the red in the eye, being careful not to go outside the eye.  Then to make the picture a bit more realistic I selected the color black and using a 5 pixel brush with a 75% flow rate I recreated the pupils.
