DTP Assignments- Favorite And Least Favorite

I have to say that my favorite assignments were the menu and the can label. I feel as if they were the most unique out of the assignments I completed, and I was mostly satisfied with them. For the can label I created a "Dilophosaurus in a Can", and I thought it was a cute idea. The fact that I found the perfect image for the can also made me happier about creating the label. With the menu, The Pixel Palace, I also found a lot of great "pixel art" images to use, and I got to create silly videogame-related names for foods, which was nice. After creating the menu I wished that the fake restaurant I made it for was real, because it would be a really cute place to go and eat.
I think my least favorite assignment was probably the magazine cover. I had trouble finding a good image, and even when I found one I could use I had lots of trouble picking the right text colors to keep the text from blending in with the background. Also, when I tried to convert the .pub file into a word document it distorted all the text and even the images, which frustrated me quite a bit. I feel like creating it took longer than it should have, and the finished product wasn't something I was incredibly proud of. However, I did get to use a picture of my bulldog Sam in a knitted dog sweater, which was pretty great.
