Liiva - Latvia

Bruno - Portugal

I’m Bruno from Portugal. I like collecting bugs, stamps and old coins. I’m very interested on politics and the financial situation. I work on an account office, I like to walk by the sea but I can’t do that much because of my allergies. I only drink boiled water and I don’t like strange food. Usually I go to bed early and I never go out to clubs. I believe that is a waste of time. I’m 28 years old and I live with my mom, but I have my space there.
I think that I’m an interesting person and I’m anxious to go there even with the pollution. See you.

David - Spain

i´m not different for the rest of the young people.I´m sure that the rest of the descriptions are similar(it´s difficult to describe myself...shit).Well, I´m a calm person,in fact everybody says that I´m too calm and maybe they´re right.But I´m not a boring person at all.I´ve finish my degree last year but i don´t have a job yet,wich gives me the chance of knowing people from another countries for example.What I like most it´s going out with my friends at night.Besides, I think that the people shows their real face at night. One more thing I LOVE THE BEACH.By the way,my dream is to travel to AUSTRALIA.Unfortunately, many times a dream requires a lot of money...

comic life!!!

2009-04-24T03:53:00.000-07:00

Comic Life Guide
Ok let’s start our own comic! First choose one page template. There is a small drop down menu where you can choose your own template. Then double click the template or just drag and drop the template on the blank page. Now we can put our pictures. We can choose one from the sample pictures album or click the explorer button and search for a different directory. There is also a third button, the capture button, where we can capture a photo by using our pc camera! Ok know that we have the photos that we want, we simple drag and drop the preferred picture in the right spot! We can rotate our picture by using the two small arrows that appeared on the photo. We can also extend and give any shape we want by clicking and dragging the ends of the photo! If we want we can use also some effects on our photo by clicking the style button that appears on the toolbar. There we can easily select our preferred style and apply it on our photo! Now let’s save our project. We select file  save as , we type the name of the project and we save as comic life file. It’s time for some bubbles now!! We simply select the bubble, drag and drop on the page. We can adjust the dimension of the bubble like we did with the pictures above! Also if we click on the + icon we add a new tentacle like staff!!! On our toolbar there are buttons that can help us modify the bubble! With the style button we can change the outlook of the bubble. By clicking bigger and smaller buttons we change the dimension of the text and with the colors (yes there is a grammar spell in the software, lol) and fonts we obviously change the colour and font of the text. Also we can put text outside of bubbles by clicking the lettering button and ABCDE... button!!!! The same rules apply here with the style and dimension modification. Once you are done you can save your comic and by clicking file  export export to images you can now export your comic to a picture file! Just select the type you want, the resolution and quality that suits you. Remember that the bigger the resolution and quality the bigger the size of your file!
Just have fun with the software and be creative!! If you have any questions you can click the help button or just send me an email at stauroska@hotmail.com

Παρουσίαση - Presentation

2009-04-09T01:29:00.000-07:00

Ο Σκακιστικός Όμιλος Πανοράματος ιδρύθηκε το 2003 και από τότε δραστηριοποιείται σε διάφορα πεδία, που αφορούν τους νέους. Η ομάδα αναλαμβάνει, σε συνεργασία με την Γενική Γραμματεία Νέας Γενιάς και τη χρηματοδότηση της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης, ποικίλες πρωτοβουλίες αλληλεπίδρασης με νέους από πολλές χώρες της Ευρώπης. Μέχρι σήμερα, η ομάδα έχει φέρει σε πέρας έναν αρκετά μεγάλο αριθμό προγραμμάτων ανταλλαγής, είτε μέσα στην Ελλάδα ως διοργανώτρια χώρα, αλλά και στο εξωτερικό ως συμμετέχουσα.

Ανάλογα με τις θεματικές των εκάστοτε προγραμμάτων, δημιουργήθηκαν, με κύριο όπλο τη συνεργασία και τη φαντασία, διάφορα βίντεο και άλλων ειδών εργασίες, που βοηθούν στην ικανοποίηση των σκοπών των προγραμμάτων ανταλλαγής και την αποτελεσματικότερη συνεργασία με νέους διαφορετικών λαών. Μέσα από αυτά η ομάδα καταφέρνει να περνάει μηνύματα, όπως η συνεργασία, η δύναμη της ψυχής, η ομαδικότητα, η ισότητα και άλλα πολλά συνδυασμένα με την όρεξη των νέων, που αποτελούν την ομάδα αυτή για ένα καλό αποτέλεσμα.

Ο Σκα.Ο.Π. συνεχίζει να δρα και να σχεδιάζει τη συμμετοχή του σε πολυάριθμα προγράμματα ανταλλαγής νέων. Τελευταία, οργανώνει τη δράση του για μία πρωτοβουλία στην οποία οι συμμετέχουσες χώρες θα φτάνουν τις 14 σε αριθμό, γεγονός πρωτοφανές. Η ομάδα του Σκακιστικού Ομίλου Πανοράματος είναι ένας ζωντανός οργανισμός, με μέλη ενεργά, δημιουργικά και έτοιμα να εκμεταλλευτούν την κάθε ευκαιρία για νέες και, πάνω απ’ όλα, διαδραστικές εμπειρίες.

The Skakistikos Omilos Panoramatos was founded in 2003 and since then has been involved in various areas affecting young people. The group undertakes, in collaboration with the General Secretariat for Youth and funded by the European Union, various initiatives interact with young people from many countries in Europe. So far, the group has carried out a fairly large number of exchange programs, whether in Greece, as host country, but also and abroad as a participant.
Depending on the theme of the programs have been created, with the main weapon of the imagination and collaboration, video and various other types of work, helping to meet the objectives of the exchange and the effective cooperation with other young people.
