Resizing and Cropping images without photoshop

Resizing and Cropping images without photoshop

One of the questions many of my clients ask me is in regards to editing photos. They ask, how do I resize my photos if I do not have Photoshop? Well, due to the popularity of the question, here is a post on a few free online tools out there that can help.

I stumbled upon this one the other day, picresize.com. I have not used it yet but it seems pretty simple and might help you achieve what you are looking for.

Here is another one, Photoshop Express. Yes, Photoshop has its own express tool that can assist in resizing and other photo editing capabilities. All you have to do is create an account and woala! If you want to use this on your hand held device, well, there is an app for that.

Lastly, there’s Picassa. Picassa is part of the Google family. It’s basically like having a Flickr account but it can be used to edit photos as well so, it can resize! Here is a link to their support page for some instructions on how to use it.

The Font Game

The Font Game

Have you updated your iPhone to the new IOS; I believe we are on 8 now.  Well, I still haven’t done so because I have so many apps and photos on my phone. I love apps but my favorite one so far is “The Font Game” app by Justin Stahl.  I downloaded this app for $1.99 a couple of years back and I am still addicted to it because of my love for fonts. I want to get better and better at recognizing fonts by name. This app, allows you to recognize or guess the font that is being displayed. You will have 4 choices to choose from while being timed. Your goal is to make correct choices for a high score within a less amount of time. At the end, you are able to compare your score with your other scores and share your progress through social media. It’s awesome! So, if you’re a font lover like me, download this app!
