Thing #13- Image Generators

C K u t43 i Candy E

I think the image generators are a tool to use that really take advantage of the internet. By using the word maker like the one above, I was able to write one of my user names by using six pictures of the different letters. This allowed me to make a very customized word that I could use in a variety of applications. Since people are publishing their works and there are programs becoming more available that can search through the large amount of information out there, it makes it easy for the average user to take advantage of all that without spending too much time sorting through everything that's available.

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

The sign above is another example of an image generator. The sign maker is really a simple tool that will allow you to write messages that you would probably be using anyway, but gives you a lot of options to customize them. This is a great tool to use in the classroom for lessons on the promethean board or for focuses and closures. It's easy to use and just simply allows you to be creative and customize it and add a little flare to classroom learning.
