Fireworks Instructions (continued)

The original .png file (400 px by 350 px) was 47 kb. Compress (export) the image. The final .gif file posted here is 5 kb. The color table file (.act) is 1 kb. This project introduces students to the use of layers and various tools from the toolbox. It requires extensive use of the Info panel.

Create a color table file based on the graphic of the textbook's cover that is posted on this page. Save the color table.

The canvas size is 400 x 350 and colored white.

You should create the following objects in the graphics:

• Rounded Rectangle - Size: 180 x 90; Location: 200, 50; color: black; radius: 50
• Rectangle - Size: 180 x 70; Location: 200, 230; color: "blue" that identically matches the textbook's graphic
• Circle - Size: 150 x 150; Location: 20, 180; color: "red" that identically matches the textbook's graphic
• Sine Wave (S) - Size: 140 x 90; Location: 25, 215; color: "orange" that identically matches the textbook's graphic
• 6-Pointed Star - Size: 120 x 140; Location: 40, 20; color: "orange" that identically matches the textbook's graphic
• Ellipse - Size: 140 x 300; Location: 220, 20; color: "orange" that identically matches the textbook's graphic; Layer Transparency: 50; On Top Layer
• Initials - Use your own; Face: Arial; Size: 50; Location: 225, 160; Crisp Anti-alias; color: "red" that identically matches the textbook's graphic; Kerning: 20%

In addition, group your initials with just the ellipse and group the sine wave (S) with the circle.
