Easy as Paint

In our classroom wiki we decided to change the member picture for the students. This is convenient, because it is easy for them to find their discussions and posts by looking for their member picture, rather than weeding through all the member names. Using MS Paint made the task a cinch. The kids have used Paint since their first year at school, so it was a great tool for the task. This is how we did it:

• In Paint: click Image-Attirbutes and set the width and length to 2. Set the unit of measurement to inches. Design-away in the 2x2- inch space! Save with a JPEG file type.
• In the Wiki: click My Account-Change Picture-Browse. Browse for saved picture. Click Upload. Click Save. Done!
• Return to main page of wiki by clicking its name on left sidebar, or by clicking the wiki logo at the top-left
• Easy as Paint, right? Your kids will love it.
