Thing 7 - Image Generator

Another try at Wordle .... just to make sure I understood.

Image Generators- Thing 7

A Wordle test.

Thing 6

I looked at these mashups -Photomule, FlickrFaves and Slickrframe. Also made a puzzle from one of my pics using Big Huge Labs and uploaded it to Flickr. Spelled Presents with Spell with Flickr. I ran into some problems using Bookr and will ask someone at work tonight what I am doing wrong.

While these may be great for others to organize their photos and post to friends, I will probably not use them as I already send the photos that I want to family and friends. I have no desire to organize them and make them pretty. I am a "cut and dried" person and just send them as they are. If the receivers want to pretty them up, they can.

Thing 6

In AppGardens I explored Photopresenter- a slideshow program; Photoshake which allows you to combine one or more photos, and cardKarma which helps you make ecards using your photos and even videos from youtube. I might use cardKarma, found that most interesting.
The tools in Big Huge Labs were neat. I liked the photomosaic, jigsaw and wallpaper programs. Would be nice to have the time to get into that.
Spelled out fantastic . Sure looked fancy with all the graphics.
Interesting how you can merge the pic and text at the bookr site.
I'll leave the elfing to the pros like Diane- really cute.

The only program I saw that I might use is the ecard one. Sharing photos online is a great thing for family and friends. I do that already on my own simple scale.

Thing 5

Created a flickr account at work, but found it too time consuming to try to find a picture I wanted to upload from my work desktop. (Rarely use my desktop so really haven't personalized it with any pictures or links) I used my home laptop to finish uploading some pics to flickr and posted to blog.
