Snowflake Challenge - Day 5

Day 5 - Recommend a fannish or creative resource

There are a couple of photo editing sites that I use for creating fan art.  They're both good, lightweight tools with masses of great effects, filters, overlays, templates, and collages.

www.picmonkey.com is the one I use the most, and I really DO use it a lot! It's a pay service and at the moment I'm paying £6.50 a month, which I'm prepared to pay, because it serves my purposes perfectly.

I've recently discovered www.ipiccy.com.  It's touted as a free Picmonkey, and at the moment, I'm just familiarising myself with it, and my first impressions are very positve.

Whether or not, I eventually start using Ipiccy more, or whether I stick with Picmonkey, they're both great sites, which I highly recommend and better still, they're fun and easy to use.

you gave up on GIMP then LOL

No, I still use GIMP, but only really for layering stuff. I just find these other sites so much more user friendly!

Thanks for the rec, I enjoy making the odd collage, so this is welcome.
