New Comp 8 Picnik assignment

Hi Comp 8!

Today's assignment is to choose an appropriate photo from Google Image Search (or from your own collection of photos, if you have one) that would complement the following quote:

"Most of the shadows of this life are caused by standing in one's own sunshine." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

The technique we will be experimenting with is that of changing the TEXT to emphasize certain words. This can be achieved by creating multiple text boxes so that you can change the size, colour, and font of certain words.

For this assignment, I would like you to emphasize the words "shadows" and "sunshine."

Save it as "last name, shadows sunshine" and submit it to the drop box.
