I LOVE Picnik! Picnik is a photo editing site that’s free and super easy to use. You just sign up and you’re ready. I use it for all my photo editing. All the pictures you see on my blog look pretty because of a little editing. I can take a fairly nice photo, but some need a touch up or even just to be re-sized. You can buy photo editing software, but for simple cropping, brightening, and resizing, Picnik is great.
Here’s some before and after shots:
I used crop, exposure, contrast, color, and re-sized!
Here’s a few more fun things to create:
I used sepia, polaroid, matte frame, stickers. That last one might be printed for Father’s Day!
What fun photo finds have you used for editing?

I’m a HUGE Picnik fan too! LOVE THAT SITE!
We love Picnik. You can click here to see some of the ways we use this free photo editor.
Cute photos! I’ve only ever used GIMP to edit photos, but I’ve heard about Picnik from several blogs now so I think I’ll have to give it a try!
I’d never heard of Picnik until now. I’ve been using Picasa 3, but I will check out Picnik. I’ve heard about GIMP as well and need to check that out too.
I have never used this one. I will have to try it. I have always used PhotoScape which is also a free download, and you can resize, change color etc.
I’m spoiled…I have photoshop elements 7.0 for all my editing and custom creating!
Definitely a site to save. Thanks so much.
Picasa for me, too. I’m curious now…
I’ve been using photoscape software and really love it! I especially love all of the collage options…I’ve been testing the out on my blog every so often. (My latest post shows 2.) :)
I like Picasa. It’s free from Google.com and it has a really easy collage function. I used it to make a cute tote with photos of my kids’ art:

I love picnic! I edit most of my food photos with it and I love it!
Thanks for the tip!
Oh. my. goodness.
Your babe has grown up so much. And she’s still just as stunning as ever. The last sepia picture is absolutely adorable. I can’t wait to come back and see you guys!
I am a huge lover of Picnik! I edited all my sister’s bridal and wedding pictures on there for her. I love the ease and love my after pictures.
I’m pretty sure I could spend all day on Picnik…and maybe I have. Just don’t tell my dirty house that was why it was negelcted. ;)
I had never heard of Picnik…thanks for sharing….I am out for summer and can’t wait to start trying it out! You may have created a monster.
I love Picnik’s site.
Thanks for the recommendation!
