Drag & drop a variety of characters (stamps) into a background, and create an imaginative scene. Simple word-processing capability is included to encourage and facilitate free-form creative writing and the saving of original stories. When finalized, users will also be able to add their own images (created with Paint, Camera, etc.) and share their stories via the mesh.'' This is a WorldWideWorkshop project - see the [http://www.worldwideworkshop.org/olpcwiki/index.php?title=Story_Builder WorldWideWorkshop wiki page]. '''Full Functionality List:''' DONE: * Select a background / theme {from fixed set of provided themes and images} * Place the animated characters freely on the background * Select placed characters and move them around or remove them * Selecting a character which overlaps with others brings it to the front * Clear Picture * Add the story title and text * Save / Load PENDING: * Allow students to take drawings created with the XO painting tool and use them as background images. * Allow students to take photos with the XO camera and use the photo files as background images. * Friends can share saved stories and read them together over the mesh.
