Coolest Find of The Year?
For me it was… ever since first watching someone use photo shop to extract an image… or superimpose an image on a different background simply by erasing an area… like on my header… creating graphics that are stunning and captivating…
Most entrepreneurs outsource most of their graphic arts projects because even when the task is simple they either don’t have the tools or the knowledge to make doing the task themselves cost effective.
Quick and Easy Professional Quality
Enter Picnik.com which allows you to remove or change a background image, creatively edit a picture or design an entire graphic representation.
Working with quality graphics is important for professionals. Either you have photo shop (and know how to use it) or you outsource… unless you want to check out this totally quick and easy alternative…
A word of warning… write down exactly what you want to accomplish because it is easy to get sidetracked with all the bells and whistles this site offers.
Here’s the first tutorial in what will be many more:
More Use For My Bamboo Pen!
I knew this thing would come in handy and when you have to make precise strokes the mouse isn’t accurate enough.
My only regret yesterday is that I didn’t grab a ruler to make straight lines… I’ll be playing with Picnik.com for the rest of the day so that’s on the top of my list.
Crazy Effects
I have a new appreciation for graphic artists and all the cool effects they get to use. As an electronic musician I’ve always loved the cool studio effects and synthesizer equipment that make soundtracks unique.
I’m amazed at how well Picnik.com can touch up a photograph, create a collage, frame a picture or just get weird… this is the stuff that compels thirsty imaginations to grab a long straw, kick back and drink it all in!
I know you’re going to share this because everyone who builds blogs, designs websites, creates greeting cards or just loves to have fun with pictures and images is going to love this site… so… Read It, Feed It & Tweet It then tell me what you think.
