You Oughta Be In Picures #91: Fun With Photos

I used BeFunky and PhotoFlexer to experiment with the cartoon, paint, and oil painting features. I prefered BeFunky because the images seemed richer. The changes are more apparent.

I also experimented with a profile picture of a bunny rabbit. I used stickers this time. Check him out. The Plain picture is the original one. I used http://www.befunky.com/ to create the photo with the text. The one with the scarf was altered using http://www.photoflexer.com/. Chicharon Corazon a.k.a. Carrot Sticks is so cute!

You Oughta Be In Pictures #90: Sharing Photos

I'm not into sharing photos online. However, if I ever do it will be with family and close friends. I prefer sites that allow one to limit who may view one's content, especially when it comes to images and photos. I support privacy and copyright regulations for users.

I am impressed with Picasa. Picasa is wonderful because I have the option to use their site for my personal use or for photo sharing. It's nice to have a place to store photos online. I also like the fact that you are able to have an unpublished site, as I am big on privacy. The collage, touch up, lighting adjustment, and I'm feeling lucky features are also superb!

You Oughta Be In Pictures #89: Basic Photo Editing






I have recently starting experimenting with photo editing. Right now I prefer using the Piknik website. Piknik is great because it allows you to use some editing features for free! Of course some of the nicer ones you'll have to pay a premium for.



The primary features I must have are red eye removal, color, exposure, contrast, colors and sharpening. However, my new favorites are the teeth whitening and weight reducer features! Check out the before and after pictures.
