Okay, to review what we learned today in GIMP. No, it’s not a tutorial — just a review…
To make a circle, click on the “select an oval” and make one with shift down so it’s a circle.
Then “fill” that circle.
Then make the canvas and everything shrink down around it, and export it as a picture.
Then I made my little icon background like the domino, and dragged ’em in … I didn’t try to have layers but exported separately as my icons for all the assorted sizes.
I made one of the “ten” with a transparent background, though I’m not sure I’ll ever use it.
D2L’s quizzes are also kinda tough to navigate. I mean, most things have drop down menus … but no, I have to remember the names ofmy sections to create a random one. (And my brain’s frying ’cause that has derailed me for fifteen minutes…) So I go back and see if I can have two windows open. The flicking “open in a new window” doesn’t actually *do* anything (opens a blank window).
Oh. And it doesnt’ actually add any questions when you tell it to. It just has no quesitons. It *says* it does; it lists them. However, they are not there.
I recognize that developing this stuff is a bear. I recognize all these learning management systems suck. It’s still annoying. Yes. One more time I clicked on all things possibel to ACTUALLY ADD FLOGGING QUESTIONS. Sorry, that is not an option. I LOVE WASTING TIME@!!@!@#
Okay, I found the teeny little box where I had to tell it how many questions to pick from the random selection.
I hate that no, it won’t repeat them but I guess that’s more popular and I *did* figure out that if I just copy the question it treats it as a different one (and I’m not doing anything sophisticated with it that would require me needing to know that they’re the same).
