The gaping hole in my heart left when Picnik.com shut down last month has now been filled.

Thanks again to Erin, the fountain of knowledge, who introduced me to my new love. PicMonkey, a free photo editing tool, is all things that Picnik was, if not more.

I can resize my image without having to export it (never again, Picasa), add text, touch up and Orton-ize all with a click of my mouse. Give yourself an hour and just imagine how many cartoon word balloons, brick texture overlays or daguerrotype frames you can create. Looks like a Premium (paid) membership is coming soon, but for now, it's all FREE!
