           Using the Pixlr was an interesting experience from the start.  I thought it was a confusing program at first because I have never used an editing program before.  It definitely took me awhile to get started on the basic editing features.  I wish I knew more about how to use the different tools better because there was a lot that Pixlr offered, I just did not know how to utilize those tools.  I think I could use these types of applications in the future with teaching to show the main ideas for a story or to preview a lesson about a word ending.
