Blog Entry #4.9 - Final Design

I met the Design Specification because I met all of the requirements. I placed all the 9 photos that were required and put all of the 6 text that were required as well. I also extracted 4 or more pictures from Adobe Photoshop CS2. I rotated a few pictures. For the picture of the national bird, I brought it to the front so its head is on top of the picture above it. I used various colors like red, white, and blue. I used Perpetua font because I liked it and I used the size 48 so that everything could fit. I chose the colors red, white, and blue because that is the color of the flag of my country. I chose this layout because it looks organized. I have 2 pictures per row and 3.
