Week 10 Learning to set up for a Presentation

Excitement, today with Rodney's help I managed to overlay my drawing. Learnt how to copy and paste my image then how to move it around without stretching it - hold shift key down. Learnt how to reduce size to make it appropriate - edit, transform then click the tick to apply.I was having trouble just moving my second image around the screen - didn't realize you had to place the arrow on the top blue box.
Used the clone stamp, again I didn't realise you had to press ALT Gr to fix a selected piece, and that a right click gave diameter alternatives.
I found the Hermes image and down loaded it - saved it and maybe tomorrow will be able to transfer what I have done to my blog! All small triumphs. I am listing all these so that you can appreciate the level of understanding that some of us arrive at Polytech with!

The tutorial was good, Rodney had gone to a fair amount of trouble, burning CDs of his version of selected artist work and then getting us to tangle up cords and plugs setting the projectors up. IF I had to, and I admitted to him that I would try and avoid it, I could set up for a presentation.
