Mini Projects
Here are some creative projects. Working in pairs, choose **2** that appeal to you. As you work through the projects, use the Save As button to rename your project to “PaintPotProject#” [where # will be replaced by the mini project number you will complete from the list of mini projects below.]

You are encouraged to discuss your ideas for how to solve these problems with the instructor and your classmates.

>
 * 1) The app currently has 3 paint colors for the user to choose from. If you prefer, you could change the 3 color options or add a 4th or 5th option to the app.

>
 * 1) Change the size of the dot. For this you will need to change the radius of the circle.

>
 * 1) Add your own picture. Here’s how:

>> >>
 * 1) Find a photo on your laptop or download one from the Internet. (Make sure the photo doesn’t have any copyright restrictions.)
 * 1) From either the Designer View or Blocks Editor view, upload the images to your project.

>
 * 1) Advanced: Instead of using an existing photo, take your own photo with the camera! Then make that photo the Canvas background image. (Hint: For this you’ll need to use a Button, the Camera <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">, and the Camera’s Take Picture event.)

 * 1) <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Advanced: Recall that there are three other Canvas drawing methods: DrawPoint, DrawText, and DrawTextAtAngle. Select one of these three drawing methods and try adding it to your app. Before implementing any code, write down an algorithm that expresses how the drawing method of your choice will be used.
