Thing 6

Picnik is an online photo editing site. It is free to use, but for an upgrade to more features there is a fee once per month. I thought it was really fun to play around with. I used the free version which allowed me to take my photo and edit it. There are basic edits such as cropping, rotating, sharpening, and resizing. However, the effects list is huge. For example, black and white, sepia, boost, soften, vignette, matte, infrared film, lomo-ish, holga-ish, gritty, HDR-ish, and the list goes on and on. You can add text to your photos, stickers from many categories, frames, and even touch ups such as blemish remover, and insta-thin, highlights, sun tan, teeth whitening, and lip color. Like I said, for some of these features you have to pay a month fee, but that is the only thing I dislike about it. It was super easy to use and save to my own computer. As far as how much I would use it in school I am uncertain that it has any academic uses. However, I could use the photo tools to enhance or edit photos I might use in my classroom and on the walls. For example, some features were about Earth Day, Breast cancer awareness, and holidays. http://www.picnik.com
