Homework:
This week you will refine your project based off of class feedback. If you haven't done so already, please take your logo to the computer, working in Illustrator – make them into vector art. Please take your logo design and scale it to 2 sizes. The first size will be ~ 1" x 1" (The smallest side is 1") and the second size should almost fill an 8.5" x 11" sheet of paper. Print out both sizes of the refined logo design and bring them to class next week.
For students working on the SkySafari: In addition to the above, please use this template and scale the image from your logo appropriately to create the app icon.
