Today we are going to discuss the first of many sites you can use to make good fotos better. Any one can post regular photos of family, friends, or yourself, but how about adding some different affects to wow your friends or to use on your new timeline. One fun site that I love to use, and it is actually the very first foto effect site I had ever used a few years ago, is photofunia which can be found at http://www.photofunia.com. The great thing about Photofunia is that it is now available as a mobile app. The app supports iPhone, Android, and Blackberry phones. Photofunia has animated effects (gif), photo frames, and face recognition effects and more.
You can also find holiday specific effects such as Christmas and Halloween. If you can not view gif files on your computer you can upload the animated files to photobucket and you will be able to view them and share the link with friends.
There are categories such as Effects, Filters, and Lab, which is one of the latest. The Lab is a great effect all on its own. With lab you have such options such as oil painting and pencil drawing,and watercolour which turn your fotos into art. You can design your own calender, add frames, and more. One popular option is the photobooth effect which is just like a real old time photo booth but for free.
Photofunia is great for those just starting out. You just upload your file or take a new foto with your webcam and click Go! A few seconds later your foto is ready to download to your computer or to share with friends or to post on social media sites.
There is no time to get started having fun with your photos that are just sitting around in files on your laptop. It is rare that many people have photo albums anymore but you can make digital ones (more on that later.) Sites like photofunia put the ohhhh and ahhhh back in your fotos!
