ORGANIZING IMAGES

The web provides us with many different tools to organize our photos and albums.

www.imageloop.com Allows you to upload photos and create albums with special effects, such as slider, cube, spin and many more.

ACTIVITY: Take some pictures of the school, or find them in the internet, and create a slideshow with them, using imageloop. Customize it with SKIN , EFFECTS, BACKGROUND etc.Then upload it to your blog and send the embed code to the teacher by email.

Another popular feature is www.flickr.com. This feature allows you to create photo albums, slideshows and turn them into presentations. You can also upload videos, with time and size restrictions.

Slideshare allows you to make slide presentations of power point and pdf files. If you have a power point presentation about a school subject, ipload it to Slideshare. Try to add audio to it. View the tutorial on how to use Slideshare.
