Cemetary Street Sign

Picnik.com - a little Halloween fun

Some of the Picnik effects are for portraits.. fangs, skin color, eyes...  but some apply to places, houses, buildings, street signs.

Need a haunted house?  Make a haunted house.

The effect above is ghostify.  It works on people and places.

I added the lightning too.

Ghost at CemeteryGhost would be adding a ghost into a group of people or on the street, standing in a doorway.... or standing at the entrance to a historic cemetery.  There are various ghosts to choose from...

The cemetery entrance was ghostified first.

Some of the Picnik effects are free, those with asterisks in the list above are premium. Ghostly, ghastly or just little Jack-O- Lanterns, black cats, ghost stickers, it is all there for you to create a spooky atmosphere.

Maureen McCabe Ghostified

Susan Milner used Picnik to change her avatar on Facebook.  Hers is really, really good.  I thought bloody fangs would be too much.  They are just right on Susan.

Here's my avatar ghostified.  I posted a picture of me with fangs, a wound and a spider on my shoulder on Facebook.

The Premium Membership is only $25 a year, or you can buy a premium membership by the month.

There are posts about the basics of using Picnik on ActiveRain. It is easy to find your way around Picnik.

Use your imagination... If you try any of the effects please leave links to ghoulish effects on your posts in the comments here.

Maureen, now this sounds like fun!  If I tell my mom about this, she'll probably be playing around with pictures all day!  I'll definitely have to stop over so I can take a look!

Renee I went back in to redo the photo and the lightning bolt has all kinds of variables.... forked, color.... intensity.

I have to re-up on the premium in 11 days.... day to day I am not sure I use the premium features much but for Halloween and Christmas I will or should. 

I am not much of a photographer but I love to play.

Techy?   Gee Picnik.com  is a site that allows people who have just basic skill computer skills do things that used to take a lot of technical skill.

Lots of it is free...

I use the free stuff to add a drop shadow to photos just about every day.

That is an extremely wild picture; awhile ago I discovered a website that let me create interesting effects. It was six hours later and the sun was starting to come up. All too consuming at times.

Picnik is real quick and easy, no learning curve at all.  There are some tricks that are harder than others for me but it is not worth spending a lot of time on IMHO.
