Learning Lesson #5: Generators

So I made one of these little magazines. What fun. Although, I couldn't seem to find a place to edit the text of the cover. I'm sure there are ways to do that somewhere. Anyway, it's highly entertaining.







There were also lots of fun, goofy things to play with on the chocolate bar site. I can think of lots of kids I could show this who would spend lots of time playing around with it.
http://www.magmypic.com/. This is great as a joke. I can think of lots of good pics I have that would be hilarious for some of these covers. If nothing else, these are great for a laugh. I am highly amused. http://thoseposters.com/index.php. This is one of my favorite generators. Some of the pics people have put up here are HILARIOUS! I am having internet problems right now so I can't put one of mine up. Next time maybe.
Overall, the generators just seem like something that's fun in spare time. I will probably show these to some people who get bored online a lot.

Learning Lesson #4: Flickr


Well, I browsed around the sight for quite a while. It was certainly impressing. There are so many talented photographers. Mostly, I just ran a search for "guitar" and found thousands of cool pics of people's sweet axes as well as some very unique and artistic images featuring this beautiful instrument. I found a few pictures that really stood out for me. Among them


was this one of an electric guitar built on to a machine gun. Some people are so creative. Such ingenuity fascinates me. There were many others like this and I was amused by all of them.








Here are a few other pics I enjoyed. Brilliant pieces of work. I really spent a great deal of time on this site looking at all of these great photos.
