I probably spent too much time on this one - I enjoy playing around with these. I made a few of the various signs/posters etc. I'll go back when I have more time and create another slideshow - I did a zoho slideshow in the first things, so I have an idea how they work. (plus I've done a million powerpoints...)A few of the sites that looked interesting were down. It looks like they may be back in the future, so I'll check occasionally. I've used both of the citation sites, and have recommended them to friends and others who may need them. I really enjoyed the Label maker, and will use that again. I've also played around a lot with the LOL cats:
I didn't do this one, but it's one of my favorites. Possibly because it's so true!!
This is one of my nieces, Kathryn and Shorty the cat. Anyway, these are a lot of fun and could be used for kids programs, etc. Children especially like these kinds of things, with their faces and their friends on them.
What's especially nice about many of these generators is their ease of use. Just plug in your details, and off you go. This is a quick and easy way to whip up some last minute publicity, or even make up a little souvenir for kids at a program. It would be easy to make up magnets, stickers, buttons or the like with these generators, especially since you can save them and reuse them if you like.
I didn't make a comic, although I did explore the sites and read quite a few. Some are definitely beter than others. One I usually read is Shelf Check by Poesy Galore: http://shelfcheck.blogspot.com/
Comics could be used for programming, library tours (just whip up a quick strip or two featuring whoever is coming for the tour) and the like. I have some Boy Scouts coming next week - maybe I'll make a few strips about how to search for the city's history. :-)
