GIF SUCCESS…

As some of you know I’ve been attempting to learn how to put text on a GIF or PICTURE.  Have I had luck with learning how to put text on a GIF or PICTURES?  YES I have. However, in the process I have learned some other some other GIF FEATURES though. Some of the GIF FEATURES I have learned are:

• How to copyright.
• How to put pictures in a turning cube.
• How to put text on a GIF or a Picture.
• Creating the GIF effect – Stars Effect.
• Creating the GIF effect – Minimizes Effect.
• Pop Art Picture.
• Create a GIF – Stone Effect.
• Create a Gif – Thermal Effect.
• Create A Video GIF. *Please Note* I can’t show you an example of this tool because I have a Free Site and that plan doesn’t support it.
• Compil’ Polaroid – Fixed And Animated.
• Animated Text – Glitter.
• I started learning Glitter Framing.

In my opinion I did not see a difference between the fixed and animated Compil’ Polaroid. SITES I USED TO LEARN GIF Are: GIFGIFS.com and BLOGGIF.

MY GIF EXAMPLES OF WHAT I LEARNED

EXAMPLE OF HOW I LEARNED TO COPYRIGHT PICTURES.

These are only a few tools I learned. I learned PUTTING Text ON A PICTURE Tool on GIFGIFS.com. I appreciate everybody help & comments on this. Just to let everyone know, I finally had success with GIF.  WAHOO!!👏💛👏, WAHOO!!👏💛👏*Please Note* There are many GIF sites but the two I listed were the easiest to learn what I wanted to know.

Hello Everyone, can you believe 2017 is gone and 2018 is here already? I can’t. This is my first post of the year for this site.

Did any of you make New Year’s resolutions? Sister Crystal doesn’t believe in making resolutions and honestly I don’t either. This way nobody can blame you for breaking your New Year’s resolutions.

The awards Sister Crystal received were the The Don’t Hate, Appreciate Award: G❤❤d Vibes Only – My First Post Of 2018 and WINNING THE LIEBSTER AWARD – MY SECOND AWARD OF 2018.  I think it’s just great that she won these awards and I want to thank her for giving me equal billing for this site and she allows me to post on the other site too.

Now onto my award. That’s right, I was nominated for the Liebster Award by WELCOME TO CRYSTAL’S SITE(ORIGINALLY COUNTRY LIVING). Thanks WELCOME TO CRYSTAL’S SITE(ORIGINALLY COUNTRY LIVING)

Our First “Real” Snow Of 2017 (A Slideshow)

Good Day Everyone and I hope you are staying warm in this cold weather “Mother Nature” decided to give us for Christmas.

Here is a slideshow of our first “real” snow. We’ve had snow flurries before but this was our first snow with any real accumulations.  Our deer, birds and other critters were cold band very hungry. I’m glad we were able to feed them.

Below is a slideshow of the snow and deer and the slideshow starts out with what it looks like before the snow started and what it looked like on December 19, 2017.

Enjoy the slideshow.

Fundamentals Of Blogging: Day 4 – Animals

Hello Everyone, I’m in day 4 of day 14 of my blogging course and what I have today is brainstorm the kind of reader you hope will read your blog. Also, I have to embed media(images, videos and etc..) in my new post including some tags. I have decided to do my post on animals.

There are many different kinds of animals in this world and each animal helps us daily in one way or another. When you think about, we have dogs and cats that help us by being a companion, dogs are used in the military to help the soldiers and cats are used in nursing homes to help people get better.

Then there are zoo animals and animals from the woods. These animals believe it or not also help us in more ways than one. Some examples of zoo animals are: Gorillas, Kodiak Bears, orangutans and many more. Why are these animals so important? Gorillas, Kodiak Bears, Orangutans and other zoo animals help us by making us happy when we go to the zoo.

OUR TURKEY WITH THE WHITE FEATHERS.

Bears help us because they give us a beautiful sight to see and they make us realize how powerful they are. Turkeys help us because we not only get to see how pretty they are but the fact we have an opportunity to hunt them for food. Squirrels are animals that help us because we have the opportunity to hunt them for food, Squirrels gather some nuts up for us so we don’t have to and squirrels are pretty to look at. Deer and Fawns help us because they’re beautiful to look at plus you have the opportunity to hunt them for food when they’re in season and you’re licensed.

LOOK AT ME. LOOK AT ME.

Finally, Farm animals help us because once they’re raised to adulthood some farm animals are used for food, they also make good pets and companions. Ducks who are also farm animals and help us by making good pets, companions and sometimes even food.

Now that I’ve told you a little bit how some of these animals have helped us and will continue to help us daily, then you watch the news and what do you see? A lot of news about Hurricane Harvey and what damage that hurricane has caused. It has not only displaced a lot of people but a lot of animals too.

These animals need a lot of help and since they help us daily, I hope these animals get the help they need.

HELLO THERE

Our Night Time Visitor

The other night we had something exciting happen again. A bear came into our backyard. We think he may have even laid down in our daisies around that are around are back deck. As you see in the picture, he went to our salt lick then walked toward the camera. My neighbor saw his paw prints in the grass and measured them. The paw prints measured 1 inches long and 8 inches wide. I know to some that seeing a bear in your backyard  doesn’t seem exciting but it is for us. Then to know he laid down in our daisies by our deck. Wish I would have had a game camera mounted on the deck facing the backyard. Still got pictures of the bear though.

Below are pictures of the bear that visited us. Also, there are pictures where “Big Daddy” Bear laid.

*Please Note: The AM Should Be PM On The Picture.*
