Wasting time...the things we learn!!

Just thought i would share this with you in the hope it may stop other people doing the same thing!

As part of my artefact i have used some images which i searched for with Google images. In my excitement to find pictures to complement my work i set off searching and finding lots and copying them into a file to narrow them down to the most suitable at a later date.

After looking through what i found, scrutinizing them, deciding which would work best and finally adding them into my artefact i then realized that i should probably reference where they have come from.

Now for some images this was easily done as i typed something relevant to them into the Google search engine and there they were again so by clicking on them i could easily access where they had originally come from.

But for some images no matter what i typed into the search engine (trying desperately to remember how my original search was worded) i could not find the images! I spend ages trying to think of different word combinations that would bring up the specific images but for a couple of them it was just not happening. In the end i have had to change some of the original images as i just cannot relocate them and do feel i need to be able to reference where they came from.

Time was wasted trailing through the Google search images looking for my originals as i had selected them specifically in the first place, and then further time was wasted having to repeat the task of looking for new images entirely!

It was all just a little frustrating and if i had only made note of the link or web address of the images the first time this would not of happened. I guess we learn by our mistakes....
