Emerging Technology #2

For my second Emerging Technology post I decided to use Picnik. Picnik is a free online photo editing and sharing program. Users can crop, edit colors, add frames and stickers, and much more. After a photo looks the way you like it can be uploaded to Facebook, Twitter, or just saved to your computer. I found Picnik very easy to use! You can upload as many pictures as you want to work with. When you pick a photo, the toolbar on the page is very easy to follow and understand. First you do the basic edits such as cropping and color. Then you can move on to make the picture more fancy. You can add text, frames, stickers, and other fun effects. There are tons of options for all the fonts, colors, stickers, frames, and everything! After I created the picture I liked I just saved it to my computer, then I easily uploaded it to this blog. The best part about Picnik is that it is free! And you don't have to sign up or create an account! You just go in, create your picture, save it, and its over! (Of course, you can create an account and pay for some of the premium options.) I think this would be a good way to create pictures to use in a scrapbook. I always see a lot of people post pictures on Facebook that have been edited on Picnik. I reccommend that everyone try it! It's kind of fun! Don't think too hard about it, just go for it and you will probably end up with something you like!
