Fun Flickr Tools

As promised – more cool stuff for Flickr!

Sophia mosiacI recently came across this great site that is filled with loads of fun toys for Flickr fans! You can do everything from making magazine covers and motivational posters out of your photos, to adding comic book style captions, to my personal favorite, the mosaic. You’ll be distracted for hours. It’s like crack for digital photographers.

I created a mosaic out of my favorite shots of my daugther that I have stored on Flickr. It only took me about 5 minutes. That has motivated me to try some creative projects, like Jules Bianchi’s cool alphabet and color projects. The possibilites are endless. This tool would make these projects a breeze. Now I just have to get started! Any ideas?

Amy! I am so glad you like those projects! I’m trying to come up with a new one, too, so let me know what you figure out. I love the one you did of your little lady.


[...] I have this new favorite website that has tons of fun Flickr toys. I’ve previously had fun creating a Sophia mosaic and am already imagining all the other great things I can create with these tools. But today, despite finding humor in the cartoon caption maker, I thought I’d try for something a little deeper and more inspirational – the motivational poster! Enjoy. And remember – share the love.

[...] I know I have sung the praises of fd’s fabulous Flickr toys a time or two, but if you still have not checked them out for yourself, head over and create some great projects (and gifts!) from your own photos. [...]
