3 OAG

The art generator I used for this piece of art was called "Viscosity." I liked this one because you could pick the colors you wanted in the art instead of default colors, the brush was fun to play with, and after you used the brush you could move the points individually to create an even more creative final product.


This generator was called Graffiti Art. I like this site a lot because you can not only choose the color of everything in the image, but also the design, text, width, height, and rotation of the text. This website was very fun to just play on and explore.
This web art generator is on www.coloring.com. On this website, you are able to pick any design that catches your attention and color it. What I like about this coloring website is after you select a color, you just tap the space you want it to be in, instead of trying to color inside of the lines.

Why is he confused?

The guy in the photo is confused because his glasses are on the wrong way, the blue should be on his left instead of his right and the red should be on his right instead of his left.

Camera vs. Cell Phone response


               Cell phones have changed the nature of photography through many aspects. Photography used to consist of a camera shooting a photograph of a beautiful sight, printing the picture through Walgreens or Target, or even your own printer, and hanging it on the refrigerator or the wall to keep the memory alive and remember the moment. Now with cell phones, we take the picture and fail to think about this moment again because the time is over and done with. When we have a cell phone, we can always refer back to the moment, but with a tangible photograph, we can feel more in the moment because you are actually feeling the photo just like you can feel a moment. When it comes to a camera, people are more likely to upgrade to a better camera because the quality of a picture will be better than an old camera, but with a cell phone we always choose a better phone because it’s a newer model and nobody really seems to pay attention to the camera and picture quality. Cell phones are able to take a photograph within seconds and immediately see the picture to edit its appearance based on how it turned out and possibly take a new one. But if we use a camera, we must upload the photographs to a computer before we can edit which is much more time consuming than a cell phone. Old cameras with film had to be processed before revealing the beautiful image, which could take multiple days. Using a cell phone the image is revealed immediately and is more reliable to have the picture as soon as it’s taken for processing the film would cause a hassle. Another difference between a cell phone and a real camera is the cell phone can be zoomed in to see a better view, but will be pixelated and blurry. The camera will be clean and crisp if you want to crop or trim the image. The cell phone and camera differ in many ways, but the camera will always be more reliable than the cell phone.
