Inside the War Against China's Blog
I think it is not okay for Chinese companies to act these ways because their hiring people to go online and talk bad about others or tell good thing about there companies. It’s not right, they should want the honesty of people. It’s very selfish for people to take money from companies, and say it’s there own opinion, but it’s not your opinion if your getting paid. I think it affects the integrity and honesty of the company because they hire people to promote there products and maybe they don’t even like there product, which makes them selfish. I don’t think it affects the integrity or honesty of the internet, because it’s not what is online, it’s the people choice and their honesty. On the other hand, I think that it can be okay, because their making a living, their earning a lot of money, just advertising a product, even though if they don’t like it. But it would be very bad if they advertising a product thats really bad, and getting money out of it. Maybe the product is not the right information there giving out, and people might believe and get the wrong ideas. Even worse, the customers might believe, then buy the product and see that they lied, and they can be sued. Overall, I think it’s horrible even thought there getting paid. Reading this article, made me think that the Chinese’s company are not good, and it is not right to lie, and there is no honesty!

The Second Sixth Week Reflection
I been very productive, I've completed all my work, maybe not on time, but at least I finish:). Describing my work habits I would say that I like to follow every detail, instruction, and direction correctly, but when the instruction are really hard to understand I wouldn't know what to do and it will be very confusing for me. I learn how to use the pen in photoshop, editing the pictures, different colors on printers and how colors differ from the computer and on to the computer, and etc. Overall, it was a fun 6th week and I learned a lot.
Photoshop Cartoon
This is what I did in class for my photoshop of my face. I went to the webcam took a really weird photo of myself, and photoshop it:)

Today, we did a project with four people in our group. The people in my group were Bryan, Margarita, and Karla. It was about the colors when you print and see if the colors will change or not! We finish all our work and it was pretty easy. Then we had to answer some question so that was confusing!
Spectrometry in CMYK & RGB
1. How do you think the Spectrometer works?
It breaks down the colors.
2. Were there any unexpected results? What were they?
The errors on the spectrometry.
3. Were there any differences between the different printers?
Yes, because of the graphs it shows the different shades.
4. Compare the printed color sheet to the one linked in the blog. What differences due you notice in the RGB display versus the CMYK printout.
The differences are that the paper one is more light than the computer, and you can see the shade better on the computer.
5. Did you notice the Hex Codes for each color. Would you say Hex codes have more in common with RGB or CMYK? Explain.
Hex codes are just codes, they just say what the colors are, and RGB and CMYK are colors that are mixed to create the color you want or needed.
6. Do you think the use of spectrometry is important for publishers? Why or why not?
Yes it is important or else all of the colors will be messed up and not look like the color you intended.
7. What sort of consequences may arise if spectrometers were not used in publishing?
The colors will look really weird and not right! :/

Accomplishments
Today I think I did well! I have accomplish many things like posting my rough draft on my blog and also posting my thoughts about Brazil. I thought it was pretty easy when i had to post my picture on the my blog, we had to take a picture, but it was backwards and we had to switch it. So pretty much today I thought it was really easy, but at the beginning it was tough because I didn't know what to do. Posting my thought was hard, because I didn't know what to right about. Then after I understood everything and got right to work.
Brazil
I have chose Brazil because I really don't know about this place much and I really want to learn about it. Brazil is a common country, and I think lot of people would want to go there like a tourist. Or I ran out of choice, but its a good excuse to learn about Brazil.

Pages Reflection
I got to play on the Pages which was really cool, and I got to do a lot of things on it. Like you can write a letter to someone, and do a school project. You can also change the layout, make flyers, and invitation. It's just like a Word Presentation, but you can do more stuff to it!
Blog- Self Evaluation
The grade I would give to myself for creating the blog would be 32/32, because I customize my background, templates, layout, and the advanced setting the way I wanted. Also, on my gadgets I did the highest score of my requirement! On my comments, there was a lot of people who commented, my time-zone was changed appropriately, and I have written my description. I have written three blogs correctly and I thought I did a good job!
Meez Vs. Voki
I think that Meez.com was much better then Voki, because on Meez it gives you more detail and the animation was pretty good and it was 3D! On Voki it was just really plain it was just a cartoon!
I also chose Meez, because I used it before in the past, and it was more familiar for me than Voki! There is also alot of features you can do to your Meez! You can change you face, your outfits, and your background! I recommended you use Meez when you do a blog too!
