One online application that I chose to review is Picnik. This photo editing application is very intuitive and easy to use. In addition to basic options such as zoom, crop, resize, rotate, etc..., Picnik offers advanced creative options that can dramatically change the appearance of your photos. Many of these options are free, but for a price, you can access additional features. Although my examples do not show this feature, it is possible to include various stickers on the photos like thought bubbles, stick figures, mustaches, sketchy stars, hearts, flowers, etc.... Some of the examples on the website show this, and it offers an opportunity to have make some very cute and fun looking photos. See my examples below, which were all generated from the same original photo.
Very nice post. I didn't find Picnic as useful as I wanted, there was no way to save your pictures there. You could post them on facebook, or my space or save them to Photobucket or your computer. But the edit features were very easy to use, so I could see them as valuable for a classroom as long as you had somewhere to post the project when done.

Adorable! I also really enjoyed playing with the tools. I'm happy this site was an option to use this week.
