End of the School Year and FotoFlexer

The school year came to a racing end, crashing about me. I have been trying to catch up to my life for 2 weeks now. I am leaving my present school so I am packing over 25 years worth of classroom stuff and I have a lot of stuff! My internet went down in a recent storm (big surprise) and it has been a struggle to get things going. All such wonderful excuses for not sharing any new tools that I have used. BUT- I have a really good one for you!

I wanted to do some online photo editing quick and easy. I used to use Picnik and loved it but we all know Picnik was absorbed and is no more. So sad. I really liked it. User friendly and a very short learning curve. Kind of what we all like as teachers since most of what we do, we do in very little time. So looking around I came across Fotoflexer. Really like this. You can subscribe or work without a login sort of like Picnik used to be. You can upload pics from your computer or from many places like Flickr, Facebook or Picassa. It also gives you many tools to use including effects, fonts, shapes, doodling and others.

A little screen shot there for ya. I think I will like this as much as I did Picnik although I really miss the butterflies flying and grass growing stuff as I waited. 

Even without logging in to an account I was able to use all the features and save my new image to my computer. Pretty nice for a free photo editor online. I recommend you investigate FotoFlexer.
