Back to School: Getting Better Grades in School Using Aviary!

By Meowza Katz on September 01, 2009 | 29 comments

It's back to school time! Break out the internet papers, internet pencils, and internet books (or whatever you kids use in school these days)!


Hey! How would you like to get a jump start on the other kids this year?
Well, you can! Today I'm going to show how you (yeah, you!) can improve your grades in school this year in minutes, using Aviary.com!

Exam time!

Uh oh! It's exam time, and you forgot to study!


Fear not! Using Phoenix, Aviary's Image Editor, you can achieve any grade you desire on your tests!
Simply scan your test paper onto your computer, and upload the image of your test into Phoenix.
Using the Paintbrush Tool with the foreground color set to white, simply "white out" the undesirable grade!


Select the Eye Dropper Tool to sample the color of the original grade as your foreground color. Then, write in the grade you desire (and rightfully deserve!) using the Paintbrush Tool!


Report Card time!

Yikes! What's mom going to say when she sees your report card this year???


Well, follow these instructions and she's GOING to be saying, "Son or daughter, I'm buying you a [insert current video game system]!"
Again, select the Paintbrush Tool with the foreground color set to white to "white out" the original comments on the report card.
Then, select the Text Tool and simply type in your super-believable high praise!


I'm siiiiick.

So, you've learned the preceding techniques but still worried about an upcoming test?
Would you rather take a make-up test another day for that one extra day to cram for that exam (or watch Price is Right)?
Then you're going to need a permission slip from your parent or guardian!
For that, you're going to need their signature. But how are you going to get your parent to sign a fake slip? I'm sorry, but you won't.
Not a problem for an Aviary user like us! First, create a fake petition that you know your parent will most likely support, and present it to them to sign it.


Then, using the Freeform Selection Tool, copy and paste their signature onto your pre-written permission slip, using the Move Tool to line the signature up at the bottom!
And voila! One free ticket out of class!


I take no responsibilities if you happen to get caught using any of these methods. But in case you do, here's one last tip.
You'll most likely be punished in the form of writing lines, declaring your guilt.

Write your solemn declaration on one sheet of blank paper, and scan in a sheet of ruled paper.
Import the two images into Phoenix, and use the Transformation Tool to resize and position your written line onto the sheet of lined paper.


Select the Layer > Duplicate Layer function to make as many duplicates of the line that is required as your punishment, then set these layers blend modes to Multiply.
And there you have it! A full sheet of lines!


So the next time your parent asks you why you're spending your whole day on Aviary.com, you can say, with great honesty, that you're improving your grades!
Look at me, ma! I'm learnin'!

Yeah! Great way to improve your grades. :D - The only problem is that we use an electronic (= webbased) grade system on our school. So, parents can see the grades directly after a test is checked ;P So, I think your next post should be: How to break into a schoolcomputer and change your grades! WHAT?! It isn't our fault that they don't protect their ow so valuable computers better ;)

D'oh - you had me fooled! Here I thought it was going to be an article about schools whose students were excelling through using Aviary.

To be fair, this version's much funnier...

It was the day of the big sale. Rumors of the sale (and some advertising in the local paper) were the main reason for the long line that formed by 8:30, the store's opening time, in front of the store.
