Mashups Are Smashing!

I am loving Flickr!  I think it’s great there are so many applications in which to use your personal photos.  I went hog wild on this one.  I used the Mosaic Maker, the Trip Planner from Yahoo!, the Flickr Color Pickr, and the FD Toys’ Trading Card Maker.  I didn’t really get the point of the Mosaic Maker; maybe I did something wrong, or maybe I just don’t mosaics, I don’t know.  The Trip Planner wasn’t to my liking either, because I haven’t really been anywhere.  I did, however, like the fact that you could use it to highlight places you would like to go.  The Flickr Color Pickr, I thought, was awesome!  All those colors to choose from; so many different shades of red!  I was in heaven.  (If you haven’t guessed, red is my favorite color.)  Although, I wasn’t quite sure what to do after seeing the different photos.  My absolute favorite is the Trading Card Maker.  I made one, and I have to say, I feel like a superhero now.  Who knew a simple digital picture and self-promotion could give me a whole new outlook? Big Huge Labs had quite a few photo applications to choose from.  At some point, I would like to create a jigsaw puzzle from a picture of my kids.  Or maybe I’ll use the Warholizer, though I sort of do that with my webcam.  The sky’s the limit with digital picture applications.
