Week 3: Thing SIX

For this post, I chose to use a mashup of Flickr to create a satirical motivational poster. The application is called "Motivator" can be found on the webpage of Big Huge Labs. This particular application is very easy to use as it requires nothing more than selecting a photo to upload and filling in a few text prompts. The only real drawback, in my opinion, is that the site does not allow you to preview the poster before it is finalized.

Lawnmower FAIL

I really like the idea of being able to create your own motivational posters. This stems from the fact that I been surrounded by altogether too many tired, generic, serious motivational posters. The Motivator application is a very user-friendly outlet for anyone who, like me, is intrigued by the opportunity of giving the standard motivational poster a bit of a sarcastic twist.
