How did I edit it?
The Images that I used for my banner were my very own! I chose these pictures to show more about me with a picture of myself and my puppy!! To edit my header I used pixlr express. I used the adjustments crop and airbrush for the picture of myself… because who doesn’t want to look flawless? I also used the rotate function of the adjustment section for the left hand photo of my dog. I then used effects to put a filter on the center picture of myself… again, embarrassing myself with the amount of editing I need to look decent!
Additionally, I used a vignette for the overlay on the center picture to add a little more of a dramatic effect to highlight the picture of myself. I also used type to add my name into the photo of myself. I did not use borders in any of the pictures because I felt like the collage had already given each photo the white border.
Now that I’ve explained what I’ve used for the banner, let’s talk about the process.
The Process
I LOVED IT, I felt very comfortable finding my way around pixlr and found the whole process very simple and easy! I loved editing the picture and adding filters and stickers to make it all more me, which was the goal of my banner, I really wanted it to represent me and serve as a way for my readers to see me (plus some pictures of my dog because who doesn’t love dogs?). Anyway, I think the banner represents me because it shows my very favorite thing, my puppy and also shows me in an off guard picture that my boyfriend took using his new phone’s portrait feature, which if I do say so myself, came out pretty good!
