LEARNING LOG (May. 14th. 2012)

I searched on how to add shadow and glow effect to my picture on photoshop.
I learnt that there are many different types of shadows effects.
I found the website very interesting because it also shows what i should do when i have layered images.
My question was: Will my layers be updated when i change the images around?
Today's class for me was to learn how to add shadow to my image.
My connection was that i learnt another tool for photoshop.

LEARNING LOG (May. 4th. 2012)

I searched on creative photoshop on google and there was a website on how to make your facebook timeline cool by using photoshop.
I learnt that using the photoshop pictures as your facebook timeline is very cool.
I found a picture very interesting on the website that had a very cool effect.
The website didn't tell me how i can make a cool timeline cover picture, it just showed me pictures of people that has cool timeline covers.
Today's class was kind of like an entertainment class for me. I searched on some stuff that wasn't related to my project, but it was really cool.
I don't think there was any connection other than using photoshop to make cool pictures.
