Picnik review
In this review i am going to talk about the online editing software. Picnik is a online website where you can edit your images. You can also be a member for $2 a month. I am going to talk about if it is worth using Picnik and is it worth to upgrade.
Advantages.
There are some useful features in Picnik. Some that you would expect to see in program's such as Gimp. First thing that i like about Picnik is that Picnik the company are always updating. They come out with new brushes etc to help change your picture in to something wonderful. This is great because such program's like Photoshop. You have to wait until they release a new one and then You have to buy it. This can be very costly.
I also like how you can share your images online with the world to see. Many people have preduced outstanding work. You can become inspired on what other people do. It is also a great way on how to look at some new ideas.
The lay out of the website is really good. It is simple and easy to follow. I beilive that this is the reason why so many people choose this compared to items such as photoshop or GIMP which can be a bit more tricky to wrap your head about.
They are also have a help area. This is great dfor people who do not know where to start or how to edit the pictures into something great. Many people will use the help area to find out new skills etc.

Disadvantages.
On the other hand. it is somewhat not a free website. I found it very annoying that when i see something i want to do. I may want to use a brush that i have found. I would click it and it would say that i would have to upgrade. I would upgrade if i did not have items such as Photoshop already installed on my Laptop. Why would i pay another $2 dollars a month just to use something i already have installed on my Laptop.
Verdict
I would definitely use Picnik if i did not already have Photoshop installed. It is a very good piece of software and i think many people would enjoy using it. Although most of the tools you want to use you ma have to pay for. I think $2 a month is very reasonable for the help that you would get and the ever changing website.
