Design+Tools

Be Creative! Here are a few applications which you can use to design many different types of projects. Choose an application (or add a new one) and discuss any or all of these questions:

This is sand is a very fun and creative application. You can make digital art online. This is sand an be useful for school. If you are doing an art project about digital art this is useful. This is sand is dropping sand in layers of different colors. It is good for art but i do not think it could be used for a different subject.

 * [|Fraboom Online Museum] ||  ||   ||   ||
 * [|Otaku Avatar Maker] ||  ||   ||   ||
 * [|Aviary] ||  ||   ||   ||
 * [|Sumopaint] || This aplication was made so you can paint different pictures with many different assortments of color. There are some different type of pictures that you can colour in to test it out but after that you have to import your own photos. The tools you can use are different types of paintbrushes like the 1.2 font and many different sizes. Yes it does what it is intended to do and that is colour different pictures with a lot of detail. I like how there are many different colours and how there are many different fonts of the brush so you can easily colour it in with a lot of detail. I don't like how you have to make an account to get because to make one is really time consuming. If you have a picture and instead of using photoshop to change it you could make it white and use this aplication. ||  ||   ||
 * [|Aviary] || Aviary is a very useful application. You can use it to edit different things. Something you can use it on is pictures. You can change the look and shape of a picture. You can also add in symbols and signs and change the colour. if you want to create of change music you can also do this on Aviary. Some things you can do on Aviary are Image Editor, Image Creator, Screen Capture, Audio Editor, Vector Editor, Image Mark Up, Effects Editor, and Colour Editor. you can also turn your picture into an Etch Sketch. This application can be very useful DT for editing pictures and can be useful in MT for Videos and music. It can also be used for fun. ||  ||   ||
 * [|Magnoto] ||  ||   ||   ||
 * [|Glogster] || Glogster is a great software for creating posters. The opportunities are endless with making the poster look good, and attractive. You can change fonts, font colors, backgrounds, titles; you can upload personal pictures, etc. All of these are aspects of glogster. Moreover, everything is free as well. The software is built in templates where you always have to double click on something to interact with it. When you do this, numerous choices can be made. For example scale something or change the frame or layout. Furthermore, the templates are well organized and not hard to understand. One of the useful aspects within this software includes the numerous backgrounds you can choose. Just click backgrounds and there are hundreds. This is great for making the poster look good.However, the poster does not always do what it intends to do. It does make great posters, but often the site does not work. Certainly this is not intended. This makes it very hard to work over a long period of time, and can be very frustrating. Despite the sometimes bad webstite, I love the different options it gives you when you can make your poster good looking and attractive.Lastly, this poster can be used in class, along the lines of making a poster about something. For instance in Spanish class I made a poster comparing myself from when I was a little kid to today’s me. Also, it is so much easier to make a poster online instead of gluing and cutting a normal poster. Just make it online and print it as big as you like. ||  ||   ||
 * [|Dreezle] ||  ||   ||   ||
 * [|This is sand] || There are only some different things that you can do with this software like make different types of design with the different colors of sand. That is basically the only thing that you can do because this is a very limited application. there are no built in templates there is only a blank screen and if you click on it sand will fall down. One very useful tool about this is the triple click which is when you triple click the sand will keep flowing and you will not need to keep your finger on the mouse. This software does what it is intended to do because it is just to make your imagination go wild with many different colors of sand. The thing that I like the most about the most is the different colors of sand that they have and the how the sound of the sand is really realistic. The thing I dislike about it is that it does not have a lot of different tools to use except for the sand. This could be used in class because if you were in art class you could make a new type of design for you project.I feel like I am playing with sand it is so cool! When you are choosing the colours you can choose more than one colour so that it automatically switches between the colors that you chose. If you put your mouse at the bottom of the screen the sand shoots up. I like "This is Sand" because you can play with sand and you can make huge sand mountains. there is one but though, you can't make casltes or big models and once the page fills up you have to go back to the wiki and click on the link again.

Its about time somebody made an application that doesn't just make you move your mouse around the screen and pretend you are painting on a canvas. This is unique and creative. You can choose from several colors, and basically all you do is sprinkle sand in layers. This is great if you are bored, but it only lasts for a couple of minutes. It would be better if they gave you an option of having a colored background, that would be cool (especially pink, lime green or red over black). Of course you can't use this for any projects but you can play around with it at home. Definitely worth checking out! ||  ||   || Sketch and paint is useful because you can draw and wright with it. When you write fast it fades out like when you actually writing. It could be useful for electronic signatures, drawing online and for art class. i do not think it would be useful for projects but it is fun to use. ||  ||   || || There are so many different things that you can do with it. You can make a movie, you can doodle, you can even make a car so there are a lot of different things. I tries the drawing it was very cool you can change the color and you can save it when you were done. I think that this would have been a good application to make a logo on or even just to doodle or have fun. This is a very useful application. It helps you make cards, movies, pictures, stories and much more. I like Kerpoof because it is fun to use but you are still doing work. Kerpoof can be used in class for projects. Kerpoof is a very fun website! It is a website where you can make movies, drawings, cards and many more things. The thing that I thought was the best to make was a movie. It is very easy to use and there are a lot of different settings you can choose from. I think that many people will enjoy this website because in the end the movie looks cool and pretty professional. KerPoof is a fun application that you can create your own animated pictures and many other things. The great part about making these animated pictures is it takes almost no time at all. I would highly recommend visiting this application. I really like Kerpoof because you can make a lot of stuff... Like you can make a video a sticker a card and lots more. This software could be useful in class because if you need to make a card you can use Kerpoof. I dislike the part that you need to make an account. It does everything it needs to do. ||  ||   || This is a very fun website but only really could be used for school if you had to do something in Science about cross bred animals or on random monsters. Switcheroozoo is a very interesting and fun application. By clicking "Make New Animals," you can experiment with different animals such as adding an elephant's head to a monkey's body, and then you can take a picture of your animal. There are other different options as well such as playing games and just exploring and learning about Switcheroozoo. I can't really see it being helpful for school work, but I do recommend it if you just want to have fun! ||  ||   || I agree with everyone who commented on here and 1 thing I thought was that GoAnimate is 100 times better than Fuzzwich because there are a lot of more things you can do in it and it has many objects and characters. I agree with the above comment. GoAnimate allows you to create your own animations with several different backgrounds, characters, music, effects etc. Also, you make your characters do actions such as run, walk, dance etc. at any time. If there is a point in your cartoon that you would like a whole different background, you can do that. Or if you would like a 'Preview Audiences' sign like they have in movies, that is also possible. This program allows you to do endless things and it is possible that it could actually come in handy one day. Maybe for a class like science. If you were asked to create a comic of some sort describing a topic that you are learning. Maybe instead you could be asked to create a cartoon/animation. It could also work for any class. Possibly to create a video describing something new kinda like Brainpop. Who knows? Because the choice is up to you! This is also great because it gives you a tutorial at the beginning, and it is so simple to understand! (Better than Fuzzwhich)
 * [|Splashup] ||  ||   ||   ||
 * [|Sketch & Paint] || It is so cool because it is like the lines you draw fade and come back and no other program does that! You can choose between colors and you can change the size of you lines and you can also change how dark the lines are. You can also change the scatter of the line which makes the color splash out and it doesn't only go where the mouse is.
 * [|Crayola] || IN Crayola, you can do whatever you want. It is like drawing on the computer.Crayola is a very fun website which you can use to draw paint etc. Its also super easy to use. You can do many things with this software like draw sign or create drawings just for fun! In the actual software you can draw, stamp, use crayons, twistable crayons, Washable markers, fine tip markers, paintbrush etc. And You can erase everything if you need. The software does exactly what you need to do. You can just draw and have fun. I like how many colors are available to draw in and how many varieties of drawing tools. This software can be used in class say if you need to draw something but you need to keep it neat and tidy and you may not be able to have all of the colors at home so this would be perfect for you! ||  ||   ||
 * [|Bomomo] || Bomomo is definitely a very interesting application. It is an art application that, in my opinion is for recreation only. It could be used in certain classes like art. Bomomo is a very whimsical website with abstract tools. The only thing that I do not like about the website is that once you have selected a tool and start drawing with it, you can choose the colour or size that you want. It chooses for you. The software does do what it is intended to do, which is to create a piece of art. ||  ||   ||
 * [|Splashup] || This software is amazing. It is a free and much more simpler version of photoshop. If you are looking for an application that will give you an amazing professional outcome you might want to use photoshop but if you just need to edit a picture you can easily use this. I like how it uses the same format as photo shop so if you have used photoshop before than you can easily adapt to this. This can be used if you need to edit a picture and don't have photoshop. ||  ||   ||

 * [|zimmertwins] || Zimmertwins allows you to watch movies that other people have made. You can also make your own movies. The movies that you make are a continuation of the templates that have been made by the people who made the site, but unfortunately, you do not have the option of making any characters or scenes of your own. The templates are good because they let you continue them in any way you want. In this application, the useful tools are the bottom bar and the left-hand menu. The bottom bar is a sentence with links saying what is happening in the frame. For example, if you had **Eva** (one of the characters) **runs** **in the alley** **holding a letter** each one of the bold, coloured words becomes a seperate hyperlink to a drop-down menu that you can select and change things on. The left-hand menu is also useful because it can change facial expressions, add speech bubbles, effects (crash, boom, etc.) and the like. This application does what it's supposed to do on a casual level: unless you wish to make a proffesional movie, I suggest that you use this program. Also, the sharing side of Zimmertwins is hilarious; watching other people's movies is very funny. I like the sharing on this application, and the fact that it is easy to use, but I dislike that if you want to change a facial expression, you can only do one of the characters in all. This software could be used in class to present info in an interesting and amusing way, or when the teachere is absent, or to walk you through the steps of doing something, for example an experiment or exporting on a computer. ||  ||   ||
 * < [|Make A Movie] ||< Make A Movie is an awesome application that you can make a movie with. They have a few characters and objects that you can move around. You can make the humans talk! You can choose a background and a lot of other cool stuff. ||  ||   ||
 * < [|Switcheroozoo] ||< On Switcheroozoo you can do many different things. You can make crazy animals with a giraffe head and a zebra body or just play animal games. It is really fun and I would definitely recommend to people who love animals but if you don't thats ok too!
 * < [[image:ImageChef.png width="121" height="61" link="http://www.imagechef.com/"]] ||< I love Image Chef! It's so cool, the only thing I don't like is the watermark/tag on it.. but I guess that's the price you have to pay if you don't want to pay. Love using Image Chef, I have made tons of pictures from there! I especially love how you can personalize the colors and the text. Image chef is really easy to use, this site is nice for making a card. ||  ||   ||
 * < [|Doink] ||< We can use this application to draw nicely. It is a good application, that has lots of colors. There is not anything that I dislike about it. It is useful for when I am working on the planning stage in DT/MT. Also, it's really fun to draw what you're thinking whenever you want to! This application allows you to make animations that express your feelings. You can also use it for school projects because you can create animations to explain your topic. One thing I like about this application is that when you draw something it automatically corrects and makes it less shaky. ||  ||   ||
 * < [|Animoto] || Animoto is a cool website were you can make videos using photos and short clips. You can upload videos and photos to create a new video you can also upload music or use you own. You can start with a basic template and make it your own. The program is intended for you to be able to make fun videos using pictures and videos. You can upload music and make it more interesting. I like that you can make videos with your own pictures and videos to make fun videos to bring back memories. I disliked that you had to pay for this website. This program could be used for class that you could make your own videos such as for projects using old pictures for history projects or other projects. It could also be used for other things such as making reflections at the end of the year. You could use photos of the whole year and place them all together to make a nice videos. I think that Animoto is a great program. ||  ||   ||
 * < [|Xtranormal] ||  ||   ||   ||
 * < [|GoAnimate] ||< GoAnimate is great! You can make your own little episodes, trailers, cards, slide shows with your characters and backgrounds. You can select what you want them to say. Insert a speech bubble and place it where you cant, then double click it to start typing. You can add music and voice and photos. You can choose when the speech bubble appear and disappear.Make sure that you select the right characters, accessories and backgrounds, you can also make them do actions. Each character has different action. Make them have emotions too, why GoAnimate is great is because you can make your characters do just about anything you want. You can also animate animals like dogs and cats. People can have actions with objects like "sit" or "lay down" click sit and place the character on a chair. It's simple!

In this software I can make a personal avatar to use for different things. There are many different templates that are very covenant for different things you want and you can pick one and edit it if you like. There is the tool that you can use your own voice to record something that you want the voki to say. This software does it exactly what it say it does and is very useful in situations where you don't to say something so your voki can. I like it because I can make the voki look like me and I can use it when I'm uncomfortable about saying something and I don't want to say it so my voki can do it. The only thing that I don't like about it is that there are not enough of selection of parts on the face for you to choose from so this makes it hard for it to look like you. It could be used in a way where the voki can read out something that you don't want to read in front of the class so your voki can say it for you in your own voice. ||  ||   ||
 * < Comic Life Magiq / Comic Life ||< With Comic Life, you can easily create your own comic strip. There are built-in templates for your comic, but if you want to create your own layout, that can be easily done as well. There are also built-in backgrounds for your comic and more. I think that it is a very good application for creating comics because it's fun and easy to use, you can add in speech bubbles, text, pictures and more. I have already used this in class on two assignments that required me to make a comic strip. Comic Life is a very useful and fun application and I do recommend using it for class work as well. ||  ||   ||

Voki || This could be used in class to give directions without having to talk at all. Voki it is very fun to use to just create an imaginary character. I love the fact that you can make your person say stuff and it makes them basically come to life. I also like that you can change the background to make really cool images. It is also very fun to just play with and experiment with. Some of the thing that you can do with Voki, are are you can make a little figure and you can add a voice and clothes and backgrounds, there are many built in templates. They are all very good and some are funny. Some things that I really like about Voki are that you can basically make anything and do any background. There aren't many things I don't like about Voki, but one of them is that it's sometimes very slow.

You can make your own character, make it talk and change the language and voice, some of the things I don't like much about Voki is that when you click on the play button it's a bit slow. I don't like the way you change colors because first you don't figure it out as easily and you have to actually really look around to find it. It is an application where you can just be creative! My favorite was the Koala. I also like how you can get it as a ringtone on your cell phone! I agree with zoek08 because it is a little slow. I think it would be a lot better if the graphics were 3D. They could have more possibilities. There are so many things you can do with Voki. I recommend it to people who might need it for anything.

With this application you can make you own custom avatar and then give it a voice of its own and tell it what to say. There are built in avatars and in my opinion they are very cool looking and also very funny looking also. This application has good speech because it can say the alphabet if you put spaces between each letter. One useful tool is the talking tool which allows you to tell your avatar what to say. Also, in the clothing tool you can change you avatars clothes. And lastly, the pre-made avatar tool which allows you to chose from a large selection of pre-made avatars.

This software does what it is intended to do. It allows you to custom make you own avatar and then tell it what to say. I like this application because it is very funny to do and also very fun to make these things say whatever you want it to. I like everything about this application there is nothing I dont like.This could be used in class to give directions without having to talk at all.

Voki is a very good application because you can make an avatar that can be an animal or a human. It is very good to use for speaking.

Voki is the best program yet. you can create an avatar, change its hair and stuff like that and you can type what it says. loads of fun anyone who has a Wiki please have a go at voki.

I would have to agree with everyone that has written something about Voki. It is really great and entertaining to use. The purpose is to make a personalized avatar and tell them what to say. There are so many different avatars to choose from to make your's is unique and different. It is also very straight-forward and easy to navigate, I recommend Voki for anyone. The only fault is that the voices to choose from sound too robotic, but that can be easily dealt with because you can record your own voice. Voki can be used for someone that is learning a new language. They can type something in the text box to hear the correct pronunciation of a certain word.

Voki is great, you can create your own virtual character that you can dress up and make say different things in different languages and accents. Some useful tools in this application, are that if you have a Spanish test (for example) and your shy presenting in front of everyone, you can record your words to the Voki and make it say it in front of the class. Some things that I like about this application are that there are many choices for clothing. I don't dislike anything about this application, its useful, cool and fun!

Voki is a great program. You can make any kind of avatar you want. You make it look like one of your friends and have it talk like your friend or say things your friend might say. You can even record your voice or a friends voice and have the avatar say it.

Voki is a creative program to use. you can build your own avatar with it. be it animal or human t is very fun to create different characters. though in some places there is not enough customization, it does very well in allowing you to create different things. I love a previous comment saying that we should have a whole lesson with the voki talk program. i think it would be very fun and creative if everyone in class used the bit where you type what you say in an accent or language of their choice, instead of talking. it would be much more quiet in the classroom and it would just be awesome

voki is a great app! you make your own virtual character and choose its torso, head, height, width, skin colour, mouth colour and eye colour. this is a great and fun way to make a vitual avatar say what you want it to say. ti's great fun and should be fun for you. ||  ||   ||
 * < [|artPad] ||< Art Pad is a great application. It lets you draw a virtual painting on a virtual canvas. The colors are great, you can choose the width of your paintbrush and the opacity of it. After, when you think you're done, you can select a frame and hang it up in the gallery. You can also look at what others have made and how. Replaying the painting displays the whole process of making the drawing. You can paint or draw on a canvas and several tools you can use. You can splatter paint or draw freehand. The software replays your finished art so that you can see your painting techniques. It is a fun way to paint, but the software could use a few more colors. This software could be used in class when we are making picture or diagram. On this application, I can express myself and I can feel like a real artist. I LOVE ARTPAD! It is so much fun you can just draw whatever you want. The con is that there isn't pink as a color!

ArtPad is awesome and easy to use! You can draw with many colours. You can even use a splash icon. Also, you can make your painting a movie by clicking on replay. It shows you in steps what you have done to create the painting. ArtPad is a lot of fun and there are no cons! This application really entertains me. You can make any type of drawing, select a frame to make your drawing even more complete and outline it, you can watch movies to learn new tricks on how to make beautiful drawings, you can make your own painting gallery, lastly you can also send your painting to a friend or a teacher. Furthermore the most useful tool in this application is probably that you can send the drawing you drew. This way if your teacher has assigned homework and you decide to do it on Art Pad then you can just send it to your teacher. Moreover this application absolutely does what it is supposed to do. You can draw and share it with others. It says that you can express yourself and I found that you could. However though when you email it, it doesn’t come up in a link, which is kind of annoying. What I really enjoy about this application is that you can make really nice drawings that can express yourself. Also how you can watch those little clips to improve your drawings and get new tips. However you cannot make your own frame which really upsets me because I’ve worked with other applications where you can customize your own frame. Also when you save your picture Art Pad just gives you a link you have to remember or write down to show someone else without sending an email to them. ||  ||   || online sketch pad is very fun and creative for lots of people. you should try it out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ||  ||   || With this application you can always make everything to look better. You can make many shapes easily and you can change color of them easily too. Way to make a picture to look better is when you put your pictures on there, you can have a photo frame easily. you can add logos and change things like shape and lines to make the design you want. you can add a background. Print Shop is like Word only A LOT better. I just finished a project on Print Shop and I waas very pleased with the app. The Print Shop is good for making final copies of projects because you can make fancy titles. You can also customize shapes and you can add backgrounds. You can use it to make the front cover for a story. The Print Shop has many different templates that you can choose from such as pamphlet and newsletter. ||  ||   || In this software, you can make movies and play with the effects. The templates for this software are the camera in the top right the effects, on the bottom right there's the track, the top left and recent videos are on the bottom left. The templates are very useful and very organized. The useful tools are the picture flippers and the track setter. Yes the software does exactly what it is intended to do, make movies. I love it. It's so fun to play with! I like that it is very easy to use. I dislike that it costs so much to get the newer version. This software could be used in class by doing projects and the recording yourself for a presentation. it can be hard to import movies and to edit them like we have to do in English but otherwise it is a good program. I recently used iMovie for my English project and it is quite a neat program. At first s is confusing but once you get your head around it you can make some incredible movies or short clips with some great effects. You can do things such as slow down the clip (slow motion), fading to a black screen, making the images go blurry and much more. Also iMovie has some neat transitions to move from one clip to another. ||  ||   || This program allows you to choose backgrounds and characters. You can make your characters do anything. You can also change the expression on their face. This gives your characters emotions and makes them more realistic. This software can be used in class if you want to make a movie to teach people about a certain subject. I like that you can choose from a large variaty of characters and backgrounds. ||  ||   ||
 * < [|Myths and Legends Movie Maker] ||<  ||   ||   ||
 * < [|Online Sketch Pad] ||< Online Sketch Pad is a pad, and you can draw and be as creative as you want. You can do anything you like. There is are spray bottles to make a spray effect, you can draw perfect lines and circles. You can have a freehand which you can do anything yourself, you can make dotted lines, and there are a lot of different colors. You can also add text to it by clicking on the "text" icon. It's really fun! At online sketch pad, you can make really cool pictures using colors, textures, and shapes. You can draw a sketch freehand or use a spray effect or write something. You can be very creative. You can't make sounds, but other than that, it's really fun! It can be used to create a diagram for classes. It can be used for the Design Stage, to create the designs for the ideas
 * < The Print Shop ||< The Print Shop is good for finishing projects, it is easy to add picture's and text. It's also good for coloring things and making posters. It can make CD covers for projects like the MT one, where we made a CD and cover.
 * < iMovie ||< iMovie is a really fast and fun way to make or play with videos. You can add sound effects or add a credits page at the end. The only bad thing is it's a little bit confusing for first timers.
 * < [|Fuzzwich] || I love this program! It's works so well and is so cool! You can make a virtual movie about anything! Choose a setting, characters, and then you can add speech bubbles and move the characters. When your done you can share it and post it on a website with the embed code. The only flaw I came across is the graphics, they could be better if they were animated. But other than that, I love this program. It's free to! You don't even need to sign up or get an account. It's so fun to just play around with it. There are so many possibilities of characters and backgrounds. The coolest thing is that you can crop out the characters face and add your own! You can put a picture of anyone and email it for a funny laugh! This is my favorite program so far!
 * < Adobe Fireworks ||<  ||   ||   ||
 * < Adobe Flash ||<  ||   ||   ||
 * < Adobe Photoshop ||< I think this application is the best one on this list, because you can do the most things with pictures in it. For example, if you want to cut out the white blank part of your picture, then you can use magic tool to select only the blank section very easily and delete it. But it sometimes includes the objects, so you'll have to do it slowly, or, if your objects is circular then you can use pen tool to select it. I think Photoshop is a good way of manipulating your pictures. If you don't know how to use it, I think it's one of the hardest design tools to use in this list. Therefore, before you use it ask or read some stuff about it. Photoshop allows you to do many things with pictures. It allows you to merge pictures, change the color scheme of the pictures and add text to them. ||  ||   ||
 * < iDVD ||< iDVD is a simple app. I don't like it because it's hard to use. I prefer windows media player. It is hard to start up and then you face the problem of the region code. ||  ||   ||
 * < Adobe Indesign ||<  ||   ||   ||
 * < [|Adobe Lightroom 2] ||< Adobe Lightroom 2 is a very good application to design a photo, and making it even better. Lightroom has a lot of features to use for making a photo look more detailed than it is, to put more life into it. In my opinion, Lightroom is the best for photos that are like sights and views, of lets say the sunset, the sunrise, a view from a high place, those kind of things. Pictures that when you look at them, you just say, "That's beautiful." But in Lightroom, you can make it much prettier. ||  ||   ||
 * < [|Adobe Encore CS4] ||< In Adobe Encore CS4 you can design a DVD menu. You can put your video into Adobe Encore, then put in the menu, write things on the menu like play, and chapter list, then link the writing into what you want. This is a really easy application to use once you know the basics. What I like about this is that it looks very professional and can be used for all kinds of things. What I don't like about it is that there are some things that it can be a bit complicated. This can be used in class because if you are making a movie, then you have to have a menu, because you don't want it to just play automatically, but you want it to be controlled professionally. This is a great application and once you get the basics then you could make a DVD menu in about 2 minutes. Try it out! ||  ||   ||
 * picnik || Picnik is a very nice website which allows you to upload a picture or take one right on the spot, which then gives you the choices of a lot of special effects and shapes a and you can even write what ever you want on the picture, But the negative about it is that not all things are free some of them coast money. ||  ||   ||
