Assignment 2 Cellphone background

Yesterday you designed a background (sometimes called THEME) for your mobile phone or ipod. Today you are going to add it to your phone's background.

DO NOT USE YOUR PHONE FOR TEXTING OR PHONE CALLS DURING THIS SESSION. JUST TO ADD THE IMAGE.

Most cellular companies allow you to send pictures to your phone via email. They arrive just like any other picture message. You can then save your image to your phone and set it as the background image.

Different phones have different procedures for doing this. Part of this assignment is troubleshooting how to get this done.

Once complete, you could think of various ways the skills you acquired might be used. You could make a BFF background and share it with your bestie. You could take a phone of the warhawk logo, add the text "It's good to be a Warhawk" and share it with your team. You could make logos for your favorite pro teams to celebrate the start of the football season.
