my locker project is for people who cant use both hands when opening a locker and make it easier to organize books and paper.
McCormack's work for the Collect Information step:
Summary
What is the purpose of a school locker? The purpose of a school locker is that it can be used to store school books, paper, pencils, and coats.
The students in the Washington Post article are basically just saying that they need bigger lockers...
I made this locker with the ideas of my friends and I. These are what we would want if we could...

Hmmm.... we haven't had this problem with SketchUp views before. Are you exporting JPG views straight from the SketchUp model itself? They should be a reasonable size for uploading. Or are you using another method?
Here's what we can recommend...
a) In Google SketchUp, go to 'File' > 'Export' > '2D graphic'
b) From this drop down list, change the export type to JPG
c) Save as a JPG file and upload to your design project
I've just updated this question in the FAQ help list, so you can share the link with your students, if you wish.
