Photo Shop Pic 2

In this picture I decided to take out the baseball player that is standing.  I used the stamp tool in photo shop and matched the colors so that it goes together. I also changed the image levels so that the photo is darker than it orignally was.  I then changed the hue/saturation for the reds, which brought out the the dirt a lot more. As you can see there is a shoulder in the bottom left corner.  I used the stamp tool to take that out as well.  I then used a text box to put the player's name and the year.

Here is the before and after picture of our trip to St. George. I changed a few things.  I went in and changed the hue saturation for Yellows, and also for Reds.  That way you can see the red rocks and the true color of the cactus.  If you look in the rock bed I took the sprinkler out of the picture by using the stamp tool to recreate the rocks the cover it. For my last change I changed the levels so that it was a little darker and more profround.

JCOM - 2160 Resume

In a world that is constantly changing, your resume and cover letter must adapt.  Not only should they adapt to the job field you are trying to get into, but to the nature of the economy and current events.  There are so many ways to mess up your resume or cover letter, and there is no one right or set way to do right.  The most important thing to do is be professional, truthful, and do not make grammatical errors.  You should treat it as you do your personal Blog, act as if everyone will have access to it and will see any mistake that you make.

JCOM - 2160

In a world full of new technology, new ideas, and new rules, there is still a simple list of things you should never do online. A word can change a sentence, a paragraph, and even someones opinion of you. An online reputation can take years to accomplish, yet with one wrong post, one little slip, it can all be taken away. You can be put on the 'black list.' Some have used the term, "Conversational Terrorism." The word terrorism brings in a whole new meaning to how we should act through our words on the web. It really all funnels down to the simple Golden Rule we were all taught.  Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Find your voice in text, make sure it is understandable and not offensive and try to better the world by how you utilize the internet.
