How to Use an Image Generator

Image Generators for Dummies
Written by Anonymous Storypedia
Once you reach your second stage of real and unfortunate education, you enter Middle School. Middle School has it all. The nerds, the tallies, the shorties, the eighth-graders (in some places, the ninth-graders too!), the crushes, the classes, and especially the HOMEWORK...I will not go into HOMEWORK but I will mention to you that this blog originally (August 2009) contained nothing but one post and my blog was called Homework or Child Abuse? which basically asked the children of America, Is homework child abuse or is it educational work to do at home to make us learn? My thoughts were that homework was child abuse, but I will not go into that for now. This post is about how to use an image generator. Image generators are websites or places on the web in which you can upload and/or edit photos to share them with the entire world. Some of the most common image generators include Facebook, Flickr, and Myspace. Editing on image generators include transforming photos into black and white, sepia, sketches, painting, monochrome styles, and more. You can use image generators for many occasions. One example would be when you do not want to use many pictures you have uploaded to your computer. This is because if your computer breaks down and looses all its memory, your pictures will be gone forever. You can backup these photographs and other images onto an image generator or photo-sharing site, such as the ones I mentioned to your above. My favorite editing sites include both Big Huge Labs (bighugelabs.com) and Image Chef (imagechef.com). If you don't want to share your photos with the world, but you still would like to back them up on the Internet, most photo-sharing sites allow you to share your images privately. Editing photos for school can be easily done and put into a report or assignment. Also, if you are writing a story for Language Arts (or any other assignment/subject) you can easily make a cover page for your report using an image generator. You can edit photographs into paintings on Big Huge Labs, turn them into your teacher, and then say you painted it yourself. Who knows? Your teacher might be dumb enough to give you points for it (no offense teachers). Image generators can also be helpful when creating cards for your relatives and friends, and also for personal use. Using image generators besides at school can easily be a priority. Maybe if you want to make a Youtube video, image generators also have video effects, so you can use them for Youtube too. How about making posters for your room? I've seen it done millions of times. I have and will continue to create my own photos using image generators, and some are right here in this blog, one being in this post. You can also create bumper stickers for your car on image generators, creative interactive puzzles on image generators, and more. Here are some frequently asked questions by random children from all across the world:
Sarah Fisherman from New Arizona, Texas asks, "I have created an image on Big Huge Labs on my Macbook. I want to take it and drag it on my desktop, but it won't drag. Is there another way?" My answer to Sarah's question is, "Yes Sarah. Since you are using a Macintosh, press Apple, Control, Shift, #4 at the same times and perpendicular lines will appear. Drag these lines where the edge of your image is and highlight what you want your picture to be. It will then appear on the desktop. This is called a screen shot. For Windows users, go to Help and search "screen shot".
Utopian Kinishikoba XIII (KA-Neesh-AUH-KO-bA) from Jersey City, Japan asks, "My Windows computer keeps on breaking down. Help me!" My answer to this question is, "This is what you get for buying a Windows computer. This is called KARMA!"
An example of making a word mosaic on an image generator, Image Chef, is shown to the left.
