VECTORS vs. BITMAPS

Vectors use math no matter how big or small you make them they will never become fuzzy or pixelated.  A picture in vectors uses an equation, this makes them always perfect but makes them load longer. If we did everything in vectors it would take an hour to load a webpage.
Bitmaps use pixels.  Each pixel it assigned a color and value and they all make up the picture.  To make a bitmap picture bigger you increase the number or size of the pixels.  They are easier to load but can come out blurry.

Evaluation Questions

When creating my ICONs I had trouble figuring out the software because I have never used ADOBE ROME before this class.  The ways in which to bring things forward and backward and to warp them were difficult.

I coped with these challenges by reading the tutorials and playing with the software before making my ICONs.  I also had more than one sketch on the computer to try to know what I liked about my ICONs and what I wanted to change.

I did well on making the the final product because I had done a lot of tutorials for ROME and knew what I wanted before I made the finished product.  I had made four different sketches before creating it.

If I could restart my project I would make better sketches.

I learned a lot about ADOBE and I can use that information in other things outside of class.
