Thing 9 - digital picture editing

Before:

After: Chris is my son :)

I used picasa as the editor for this pic. I tried playing with fotoflexer but it kept getting bogged down on my computer. I adjusted the shadows of the image, added text, cropped the image, and put a spotlight on Chris & I.

I foresee myself using this to keep an online photo album of class happenings that I can attach to my blog that parents can use to see what it is we are doing in class. I would also be interested in using this to create a photo album for my track teams that I coach and then providing the link for others to check it out. I currently use a website, but if I could instead find a way to have a public folder for parents to upload pics to and then I arrange it, then this would be great.
