Three Graphic Types
What Are Three Graphic File Types Most Commonly Used In Web Design? When Would You Use Each?
GIF, JPEG, PNG. The GIF file type is fabulous for logos, simple line art, graphics with solid colors, and simple animations. JPEG file type was designed for photographs for smooth tones and various shades. PNG file type was created to improve and replace the GIF file.

Working with Images and Media.

How do images in your environment affect you? (For example, make you want a product or service, create a clearer understanding of topic, or cause you to reflect on memories)
Images in my environment affect me by good advertising! Good advertising starts with logos and symbols and reputations. Most of the time if I hear a product is good or a company is good I will give it a try and see how it works. Negative images in my environment affect me as well because it shows/tells me how I shouldn't be or shouldn't do such as smoking and drinking. I understand that people my age consider it "cool" to drink and smoke but it's just something that takes you off track of your life and get you addicted so you'll continue to buy their products.

Childhood Memories :)
What is your earliest childhood memory? What things do you recall about your memory?
My earliest childhood memory was when I was very young and I use to go to the park with an extradionary smile on with my friend and my mom and I would sometimes play basketball with the sun beaming above my fade.
Things I recall about my memory is that I use to play outside a lot and I would sometimes even play on my own basketball goal that my dad once bought me. I also recall having a friend named Cantrell that was around the same age as me and I would always go over to his house a few houses down and play video games.

Bouncy Wavelength's, Green As Grass, & Blood Shot Red
What makes a certain wave length bounce off an object? What makes grass green? And blood red?
Pigment is what gives objects their color. When light hits an object, certain colors (or wavelengths) are absorbed into the object. The color that is reflected is the color that we see. So, a blade of grass absorbs the wavelengths of all colors except the wavelength of the color green that we see. The green is reflected by the grass and is then transferred to our eye. Photopigments are a specialized type of pigment found in the eye that work withthe cones of the retina to help the eye reciece and process the light coming into the eye.

The Amazing Eye!
When you look at something, how do you know what you are seeing? What process does your body go through to identify the object?
When I am lookin at something I know what I am looking at because I either have seen it before or somebody is explaning what it is to me and my eyes and brain work together to figure out what I am looking at. My body goes through a serious of events when identifying an object. The eyes first have to see it and identify the shape, color, and mass of what I am looking at, then the brain figures out what it is or what i am looking at and it works with my memory to tell me what I am looking at.
When the human eye looks at an object, light is bounced off the object and the light then enters the eye through the cornea (the clear outer covering of the eye). Once the light has passed through the cornea, it continues onward through the black center of the eye called the pupil. The pupilserves as the opening to allow the light to enter the eye. A muscle that surronds the pupil, called the iris, controls the opening and closing of the pupil depending on the amount of light that is entering. In bright conditions, the iris releases and oens the pupil to allow in more light. The iris can easily be identified as the part of the eye that gives it its color. Common iris colors are blue, green, and brown.
Once light has entered the eye, it travels to the back of the eye through the lens It is the responsibility of the lens to focus the image on the back of the eye called the retina. The retina has two types of nerve cells lining it, which are called rods and cones, The rods are used in low light situations such as night time, and they process the white, black, and grats as they enter the eye.
