This assignment was really difficult and frustrating. I thought it was a very cool idea and all of the examples were interesting. But with no instruction on how to do ANYTHING for this, I was completely lost and clueless. I tried to figure out how to do this using GIMP because I used this program for the animated GIFS and it was easy to use for that assignment. However, not knowing anything, I found this was very hard to do.

I used Doctor Seuss’s Green Eggs and Ham, and turned it into Green Viruses and Ham just because I thought that would just be a different shift in the overall message. I was able to eraser the Eggs text on GIMP and fill it with the cover’s color but when I tried to add text, for viruses, nothing was working. I tried going on the manual and searched around for answers for like 30 minutes and nothing helped. Finally, I just went back to Paint on my laptop and just inserted text. Although this didn’t work the first time, I had to double check it. This was just really frustrating because I feel like I could have made a much better product, I just didn’t know how to do anything and the resources were no help at all.
