Photoshop Skin Retouching Exercise

Take Your Picture:

Take turns at the computers with web cams taking your picture.

So that everyone can quickly take their picture and upload it, spend no more than two minutes taking your picture and two minutes logging into your blog to upload your picture. Make sure that you remember your login for your blog before you go to a webcam computer to take your picture.

To upload your picture to your blog, create a new post.
Title it "My Before Picture." In the blog post click on the picture icon (the sixth icon above the text entry box - it looks like a photo).
This brings up the Add an Image box.
Click on the Choose File Button.
Navigate to My Documents> My Pictures> Logitech> find your picture.
Click the Upload Image Button.
Now you are back in your post so click the Publish Post button.
Log out and return to your computer.
