Thing 2 or: Playing with Pictures



Had some fun tonight playing with an online image generator that I found at customsigngenerator.com. I've never done anything like this. Here are a couple of samples of what I did.

These were lots of fun to play with - I may even spend some more time looking at a few other sites I found to see what else is out there... Looks like there are some that will create calendars and the like. You could get really really creative, but I can see where inordinate amounts of time could be spent sorting through the templates and playing with the image once you've put it in the template.

On the other hand, I'm not really sure how something like this would be used in a library context - at least, in a strict sense. However, since occasionally I do have patrons looking for information on digital photography and the like, I think this would be a nice additional resource to direct them to. The one thing I would mention on the negative is that, if you want to have the site's logo or name removed from the photo template, you can -but you have to pay (so the template is no longer free).
