Resizing Images using Moba

Playing with Image Sizes

Another first for me this week; using Moba to resize images.  After a bit of a perilous download process (the first attempt had me download something called 7-Zip File Manager instead...) I was ready to get my resize on.

Our lecturer outlined that resizing images is often necessary to reduce the data size when uploading images of student artwork and activities, and I can definitely see myself doing something similar in my teaching.  Having a class website or a student blog would be a highly effective way to create a portfolio of student work, and would provide a simple way for both teachers and parents to be able to see the students progress throughout the term or year.  

So in keeping with the art theme, here are two images of my kids and their artwork that I have resized using Moba.

A daycare creation that cracks me up every time!  

My daughter in an early art attempt;
one is not painting properly if they do not paint one's own nose. 

Adorable, no?  And they uploaded in a flash- mission accomplished!
