**Blabberize - Giving Voice to an Image** Blabberize is a free online service which allows you to select an image and give it a voice. Once created you can share them as widgets or links on your wiki, blog, profile and in email messages. Follow these instructions.
 * 1) Find an image to which you want to give voice. This works well with an animal, person, or plant photo. I do recommend that you select an image which is a file type jpeg or gif. Save it on your desktop.
 * 2) Go to [|http://www.blabberize.com] . Select ‘Make’ and browse to collect the image you saved at the desktop.
 * 3) Give it a mouth. You will want to shape the mouth primarily from the top/sides so that it has an open look. You will have an opportunity to edit it before you save.
 * 4) Give it a voice. You will select the microphone and record your prompt. If you have trouble see below for troubleshooting.
 * 5) <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">If you are happy with it you will hit the arrow at the bottom to play it.
 * 6) <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">Now you have an opportunity to edit so now is when you would make changes. You can go back bo any phase by selecting one of the icons at the bottom of the image.
 * 7) <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">When you are done say okay and save.
 * 8) <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">You will need to ‘make a new account’ and you will be asked for an email address. This application does not validate so you are able to make up information as long as it follows a reasonable format. We recommend that you do not use your real information(ex.Igor@gmail.com)
 * 9) <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">You need to save this as **<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 19px; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">private. **

Go to audacity and record your prompt. You must export it as an mp3 for size limitations. Save it to your desktop and give it a name. When the ‘lame’ prompt comes up say yes. You will locate the lame file in local disk ‘C’ on the drop down menu and open program files> audacity> plugins and open lame. Say ‘OK’ when promped. You file will need to be under 2 MB in size to load to your ‘blab’. You may have try three or four times to load.
