Artistic Talents Show Through at This Site

By Anonymous -
Odosketch is a simple, yet powerful, on-screen drawing tool.  It provides a palette of colored pencils and a blank page.  Check out my drawing!



My favorite part of Odosketch is to look at art created by others.  Just visit the gallery, click on a drawing you like and watch a replay of the creation from start to finish so you can see exactly how the artist completed the sketch.



Viewing a slideshow is another tool available at Odosketch.  Just click on Sketch Slideshow and watch replays of sketches from the gallery.




Note:  You do need to sign up for a free account to save your drawings.  You can also use a screen capture to get a copy of your sketch.


Ideas for the classroom:  
Students can illustrate stories.
Students can show their artistic talents.
Use your projector to show a slideshow between transitions.
Please add your own ideas by leaving a comment.


Here is another site that allows you to draw a picture and then replay it.

There are word banks to choose from or a person can type in their own words to add to the shape. I like that adding words is as simple as click ...

My Blog Makeover - How I Did It

I love change and and rarely do the same thing over and over.  So a blog makeover was  inevitable .  It takes quite a bit to make a blog look completely different, but I have found ways to make it easier on myself. Here are the resources I used to complete my blog makeover.   I found the background at the Dotty Dot Dot blog.  I chose Summer Sunset and simply had to copy the code and insert it.  I found directions on how to do this here .  I could have use the header (the title at the top of a blog) from this site as well, but I decided it was too plain, so I searched for a different header. Shabby Blogs provided me with a header that fit my background perfectly.  I found directions to change my header here . I wanted to add my blog title to the header, so I used a photo editing site called Fotoflexer .  This was the first time I had used this site and I loved it!  I have since used Fotoflexer for some other projec...
