Sequential images Class Practice

In the initial meeting of the second week, we utilized Pixlr, a no-cost editing software, to modify the sequential images from our group project in the first week.

Initially, we located our sequential images on the desktop and examined their settings. To access the camera properties, we selected the image, right-clicked, and chose 'properties.' Subsequently, a dialogue box displayed the image properties, and I scrolled down to the 'camera' title, capturing a screenshot of the settings before downloading the image to my desktop.

Returning to my Canvas page, I revisited the 'edit' option and opted for 'paste,' incorporating the image onto my canvas. Once it appeared, I adjusted its size to my preference and repeated the process for all the images. After placing them on the canvas, I organized them in a sequence using the arrange tool from the left-hand menu icons. The next step involved adding a title. Utilizing the text tool, I clicked on the canvas, triggering a dialogue box for text editing. I entered the title 'Swan in the Water,' along with the year in brackets and my name. After saving the text by clicking outside the box, I maintained a point size of 60, Arial font, right-aligned the text, and chose a black color. Dragging the text to my desired location below the images, I proceeded to file, clicked 'export,' chose 'quick export image as PNG,' and saved the image on my desktop.

Initially, I accessed Pixlr for free through Google. Choosing Pixlr E, the first icon at the bottom of the page, I selected 'create new' and configured the canvas settings in the opened dialogue box. Opting for 'print,' I selected an A3 297X420mm sheet, added the title 'Swan in the Water' in the right title box, and chose a white background color before clicking 'create.'

Upon opening my canvas page, I navigated to 'file' and selected 'open image.' Browsing my desktop, I located the folder containing my sequential photos in jpg format. Opening each image in Pixlr prompted a dialogue box asking for image quality, to which I consistently chose full HD. After repeating this process for the next five images, I ensured their quality and clarity.

Subsequently, I clicked on 'select' at the top of the screen, choosing 'select all.' Moving to 'edit,' I selected 'copy' and proceeded with the next steps.
