Amateur Photo Edit

Photoshop is a photo editing program that lets you do all kinds of neat things with your digital pictures. It's very expensive. A recent article in Newsweek mentions an on-line photo editing program called Picnik. It is free. This weekend I played around with it a little bit.





Here's an original photo.






This effect they call posterize.









This is pixelate. When I appear on "Cops" I will look like this.





I love this one - pencil sketch.









This is the neon effect.





All of these effects are done with just a click. This is really fun and a very easy program. There are many more features I can't wait to try out. If you want to see for yourself .... it's called Picnik.

Dad would have loved all of this...computer,editing, etc.
He was so creative and ahead of his time..I remember trying to do a dried flower arrangemnet when we lived on Fontaine and getting so frustrated. He came over, whistled while he worked, and created a fantastic arrangement.
