Journal - What kind of knowledge do you have in photo editing programs? Do you know how to use Photoshop? Fireworks? Or how about online programs such as Pixlr or Sumo Paint? How do you edit photos or create images? Explain.

I have know a decent amount about photo editing programs. In middle school when I did not have an iPhone, I used to send my pictures to Photobucket, save them to my computer, edit them on Picnic, and add them to Facebook. I used to use Picnic on almost all of my pictures back before I got a smart phone. Now that I have an iPhone, I edit all of my pictures on different editing apps such as PicCollage, PicFX, Instagram, Twitter, and just on my camera. When ever I am adding a picture to Instagram, I always edit it first to make it a different effect or better looking then add it. Now when I add picutres to Facebook, I do not edit all of them because I add so many it would take forever to edit all of them and same goes to Twitter. For some reason, it is only Instagram that I edit for.

I have used Photoshop before but not extensively because I see no point to using other photo editors on computers if I can just edit them on my phone. I have never heard of Fireworks, Pixlr, or Sumo Panit therefore I have also never used them or heard of any of my friends using them.
