Downloading and Using Images

ASSIGNMENT: Go out on the Internet and locate two pictures for this assignment. One must take the form of a horizontal rule and the other must simply be a cartoon of some kind. Searching the web is one skill and saving images is another. To save an image, you simply right click on it and pull the mouse down to Save Picture as... Then you must select the directory you wish to save it in (by now that shouldn't be a problem for you). To subsequently use your image on a web page which you create, you simply use the IMG tag. There are plenty of examples of how to do this on this page. You will use your HR image twice on the page of your creation and you will show your cartoon image three times. The cartoon image will be displayed at three different sizes.

Distortion is a problem whenever you change the size of an image. (It's also more of a problem when dealing with .jpg files than with .png files, for instance.) The rule is that you should never enlarge or shrink an image by more than ten percent. The images on this page definately broke that rule! Searching for proper images to use for this assignment might be time consuming. Making the page should be a snap. Include some sort of a title at the top of the page.
