MANY ARE NOT FOLLOWING THE ASSIGNMENT

2008-07-15T19:48:00.000-07:00

I have log on to a few blogs to see the progress. I found that many are doing their symbols based on the overall global warming issue.

THIS IS NOT THE ASSIGNMENT!!!!

Please modify them before submission as your task is to create AN ASPECT OF GLOBAL WARMING or AN AREA OF INTEREST WITHIN GLOBAL WARMING.

SPECIFY YOUR AREA!

2008-06-30T22:01:00.000-07:00

It seems from the blogs, that most are using references like the earth or globe etc to design the symbol. While that is fine as a reference, please make sure you are designing an area like polar ice caps or de-forestation etc as your symbol, not the earth etc.

Your task is to provide awareness of an area NOT the overall global warming issue. Please bear that in mind.

AND YES SPAIN WON (many blogs seems to indicate that)!

And now back to the regular scheduled programme - your computer graphics course! :-)

Blog URLs

2008-06-26T05:21:00.000-07:00

All students in MCG1014, MCG1016, MCC0013 are to send me your blog addresses VIA the comments section in this blog by next class.

Also, you will need to at least put a first entry or a post in your blog to discuss about yourself. Also good if you add a pic of yourself.

Thank you.
