Assignment:
Following the instructions in the above tutorials, or the instructions in the “Images in Text” worksheet linked below, use Photopea Layers, the Type Tool and the “Clipping Mask” item in the”Layers” menu to produce a total of four “Image in Text” pictures:
- Your name with your picture inside the text (you may use any photo of yourself or use the laptop camera to take your own picture).
- A fall, harvest or holiday-related word with a seasonal picture inside the text (see the “Happy Thanksgiving” image in the instructions for an example)
- Any other combination of a picture in the text of your choice. (Example: The word “Mustang” with a picture of a Mustang inside the word.)
- Place these three images, plus the “Pumpkins” image we created in class today into a folder with your name on it. You should now have four images (Pumpkins, Fall-related, Your-Face-in-Your-Name, and Your Choice).
- Turn these in by the end of the day on Thursday, October 15th. Hand them in on today’s Assignment post in the Google Classroom.
