LESSON 06 – IMAGES

 

TASK 1

 

Each of the following zip files contains 25 images.  Download ONE of them and find the images that have the wrong file extension (by opening each one in Paint and saving it).

 

Package 1 – Car Troubles

 

Package  2 – Silly Signs

 

TASK 2

 

Create at least 3 different backgrounds.  You can take advantage of tiling or create large backgrounds if you prefer.

 

Critique each of your own backgrounds.  (Is it good?  Pros?  Cons?)

 

EXTRA TASK

 

Answer the following questions:

 

a)    How many pixels are there in an image that is 800 pixels by 600 pixels?

b)    Consider the image in a).  If each pixel’s colour requires 3 bytes (24 bits) of storage in memory, approximate the file size in bytes. 

c)    If you crop the same image so that it is now 600 pixels by 600 pixels, how many pixels will it have in total?
