It has been said that I don't often take advice!
Not So!!
Kim over at Savvy Southern Style shared her playtime over at Picmonkey. Check out both Kim and the monkey.
Well I decided to visit the monkey because I am missing picnik so much. I took one photo and tried several things with it. I think I may have tried some things
that are different from what Kim showed you.
Hope so!

The original
 |
| This was fun...Edifice and Warhol effects |
 |
| This was done with "zoom focus". |
 |
| Faded edges to which we are accustomed |
 |
| This one was "posterized" |
 |
| I think this was texture feature. So many I lost track. |
 |
| Another texture effect. Not sure I like this one. |
 |
| This is one of the script effects. Already had my name on it. Hmmm, OK, it's a cumputer thing. Sure, that's how it knows my name. Spooky! |
 |
| This is the same as above but I added a frame and butterflies. I liked the frames on picnik much better. |
 |
| This one is neat. I forgot what it's called. |
About this time I was feeling frisky. I decided to see what was on Google+/Picasa.
It was a little harder to navigate but I was able to find some things. There were lots of decorations but I didn't like them.
 |
| This was called focus B/W |
 |
| This is an antiqued effect. |
 |
| I ♥ this one! |
 |
| Snap shot effect. |
 |
| Focus Blur. |
Well, that's it for today. My assessment... Picasa will be OK when I get used to it. Picmonkey is fun but sparse and you can't make collages yet. There are a lot of sites out there but I miss Picnik. I haven't found any neat borders yet. Big Huge Labs is good for simple mosaics.
I do most of my basic editing in iPhoto that is on my Mac. It suits my simple needs in that catagory.
What have you found out there? Share it with us here.
Lynn at Happier Than A Pig In Mud knows a great effects site but I lost the link. Lynn, can you help us on that one?
I hope you had fun I did.
