Let's have a picnik!

Picnik is so much fun! I uploaded a random sunset picture from google, and then made several changes as you can see...

This could be addicting!


Picasa is another great photo program that I've played with before. First of all, I think it's great for organization. It pulls all your photos from your computer and displays all your files, which can be easily manipulated as you please. It also has a face-recognition feature which identifies all the similar faces, which you can then give a name to and group all the photos of the same person if wanted.
I like the "collage" option which places all your selected photos into a neat arrangement. If you don't like the way the computer initially compiles them, you can scramble the collage and try again. This would be fun for personal decor and for homemade gifts! Picasa also lets you make a "movie" of your photos, and has a button to easily add photos to your blog!
Picasa doesn't have the editing features of Picnik, but you can take your Picnik-ed photos and place them on Picasa for organizing and filing. Both programs are a lot of fun and easy to use!
