Hi Caroline,

Here is a draft PPT of Cartoon Web Page. Some images won't fully load on website(Not sure why?) therefore the partial black.
Is there a way to get the full images for the three that are partials, so I can insert(Memorize, Journal,and last Cartoon). 
Let me know what you think of it.

Best-
JT

We got a no on submitting a video.  :( So we need 10 slides and a 1 minute vocal.
I have a crazy idea.  For the PPT you can submit a pdf.  What do you guys think about submitting the Cartoon Web Page.  http://www.sugarlabs.org/index.php?template=page&page=learners


It has 13 panels but its a darn good description of Sugar on a Stick and it would certainly make us look different.
The alternative is picking 10 slides from Caryl's slide show.


Thoughts?
