Lab 19 Reflection Journal

     In this lab, I created 10 graphic symbols: 3 of them which were objects, 3 of them which were animals, and 3 of them which were plants and one of my choice. I drew the pictures using Adobe Flash, the drawing tools. I drew a bird, 2 clouds, a sun, a tree, a rose, a flower, a bird house, a cat, and a snake. I used the shapes tool and altered the shape using the selection tool and and I also used the line tool. When I finished drawing an object, plant, and animal, I selected it all and right clicked then converted it into an symbol and made sure the type was graphic. Since the symbol is a graphic it doesn't move. Then I did command enter and I published it and then inserted it into my base html document with a paragraph of a brief description of what I did in this lab and uploaded it into the server using Dreamweaver. This lab was kind of hard for me because it was hard to use the selection tool to curve it the way that I imagined it and also I thought it might have been hard to tell what the drawing was. but it was fun thinking of what to draw and picking the color choices. This helped me get used to drawing in Adobe Flash and also to use my imagination and creativity in my labs.
