Pixlr.com Review


 Out of the 7 photo-editing websites I visited today, Pixlr.com was by far my favorite. It was easy and enjoyable to use. I really liked the option of photo editing yourself or use some vintage effects they already had ready to go. They also had the option to use a provided picture or you could upload one of your choosing. They also had a large variety of different effects you could apply. This site was a very interactive and interesting I enjoyed using it a lot.

Horse Shoes Word Play

This is the third picture in my word play series. I put a cool pair of nike kicks(google style) on each hoof of the horse that is running on the beach. I chose this horse because its hoofs were all in slightly different directions so I was able to rotate each shoe to mimic the angle of the hoof it covered. The shoes looked to clear to be in the same picture as the horse so I tried to blur them and make them less depict. 

Pea Brain Word Play

This is my second edition of the word play series. Even though its simple the point gets across. Basically I put a pea in the spot a brain would be in your head to symbolize a small brain. "Pea Brain" is often a term used to describe a person with little intelligence. Then I added some text to make sure the pea didn't look like an apple or anything that could be construed out of a slightly disfigured green sphere. The wordplay series is a fun and creative project. I enjoy it.

Candy Cane Word Play

This is my first of four separate pictures of a play on words. Feeling in the holiday spirit I decided to do a candy cane. Normally when I think "cane" the first image that pops into  my head is an old man with back problems. I was worried that if I put together pieces of candy to make a cane people may not have seen the individual candies and the pun would have been diluted. To make a stronger statement I made the cane an actually candy cane. The border and writing were just for the holiday spirit and to add some pizazz.
