Thing Eight

In completing Thing Eight, I was very interested to see some of the options available when I began to explore them. I spent some time with Flickr Color Pickr and Flickr montage, as well as played a little Flickr Memry.  I was totally psyched to find a link that would get me to all things purple ~ and then it wouldn’t cooperate to allow me to do anything with it beyond clicking on the colors. I thought the mantage would be fun to use for family photos, for the dogs pictures, and even for pictures of concepts we are using in class, tying those together in one place for the students. Again, no success. I thought the Memry game would be great for the grandkids; they would get a kick out of playing a game like this with pictures of themselves in it. 

So, I played with these and played with them and…. I was excited about what I had found. This was at the first. I spent several hours, over two days (because I put it away and went to bed, thinking that would help) and was still left frustrated because I couldn’t accomplish what I set out to do. Even admitting that is difficult because I always finish what I begin. This will be an exception. It is one of those times in which I say that I need to move on.
