  9. Challenges and Changes Loremipsum dolor sit amet, consectetueradipiscingelit. Aeneancommodoligulaeget dolor. Aeneanmassa.

Our instructions were originally a wall of text. Had to do our best to “whittle it down” to something that kids could understand.

  10. Challenges and Changes Images were chosen by guys, and were unintentionally geared towards boys. Goes to show that guys never know what girls want.

  11. How Could It Be Better? Leftover Bugs Feature Ideas • Use a host-specified image in the story • Spruce up User Interfaces to make them more appealing. • Have a “Display All Previous Lines” mode (versus only one line) • More fancy HTML output. • Potentially asynchronized Image Libraries across multiple instances • Users with multiple names lead to GUI glitches. • Instructions are questionable • Multiple Children/Laptops/Stories mode is hard to set up.
