We have used Photoshop Elements to manipulate pictures. The pictures are been transformed using various tools to paint, colorize, distort and even clone images.
Most of us do not have this program at home. However, there are many new websites that allows us to interact with them. We will look at two of them: Photoshop Express and Picnik.
Photoshop Express. is free and somewhat easy to use. It requires you to set up an account, with an email address, to use the full functions of the website, but it is possible to use the “test drive” option. The main difference between the two is that you will not be able to save your pictures back to you computer after you modify them.
Let’s take a test drive at: https://www.photoshop.com/express/landing.html
They have a very good tutorial at: http://www.photoshoponline.com/
If you have an email, you may register otherwise take the test drive.
Picnik is free and you do not need to register to use it. However, they do charge for an upgraded version, which allows you to save pictures that you have manipulated with some of the advanced functions. Let’s try it now: http://www.picnik.com/
Write a comment describing how easy or difficult it was to use these websites. Also include some of the features that you used and how your pictures changed with them.
