STEP 2: Capturing the image (say cheese).
In most all computers you have the abililty to take a snapshot of whatever the screen displays by pressing the "prt scrn" key which is to the right of the "f12" key in the top right of the keyboard.
Once it has taken the picture it has the picture in the clipboard you need to put (paste) the picture into an image editing program (like GIMP, Photoshop, Paint, Inkscape, or today we will be using Picasa 3).
1. Launch the application Picasa 3 (start > programs > Picasa 3...) get past all the startup popups.
2. Go to the Bing Birds Eye View and press the prt scrn key, you should see Picasa 3 automatically get and import your screen capture for you.
3. In Picasa 3, locate the screen capture, use the Crop tool to keep only the image part of the screen, not all the extra browser buttons and stuff.
4. In Picasa 3, File > Save As, location desktop.*
*If you wanted to keep the file for another day you could save it to your Y drive, but because it is not yet completed, saving to to the desktop and letting it auto-delete as you logoff is fine.
STEP 3: Make it at tiltshiftmaker.com
Follow the directions provided on the website.
Remember to "get full size" and then "click here to download" and save the file to your Y drive.

MLKjr Illustrate Quote
Must have text on a path, photo inserted and clipped, new shape and color to hold it all together.
Quotes, suggested but not limited to:
(choose a different one than other students for diversity)
A lie cannot live.
A man can't ride your back unless it's bent.
A right delayed is a right denied.
At the center of non-violence stands the principle of love.
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.
I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.
In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.
Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into friend.
Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.
Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.
Seeing is not always believing.
The moral arc of the universe bends at the elbow of justice.
The quality, not the longevity, of one's life is what is important.
The time is always right to do what is right.
War is a poor chisel to carve out tomorrow.
Wars are poor chisels for carving out peaceful tomorrows.
We may have all come on different ships, but we're in the same boat now.
We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.
We must build dikes of courage to hold back the flood of fear.
We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools.
