# 7 Week 3 Flickr image editing Tool - Picnik

Actual photo

Edited Photo

I can't believe I am still in Week3 but here I am. I used picnik for this practice. Changed Colour to make look like evening sunset and Added Text and Frame.It is really simple task when I am summarising it but It took several hours. Connecting to picnik from flickr and loading the editing options was so long tasks for just little changes. After long browsing I decided what frame to take or filters or effect - actually I gave to use any effect as they are not suitable or required payment. Then there was problem saving changes to flickr itself because of internet speed. It kept freezing monitor and showed failure messages without right reason. I kept tried and even left the browser open over night and came back. Finally I gave up and downloaded to my computer and uploaded to flickr and came to work to use blogging tool. But I think flickr function were disabled in the Library so I had to download picture again to library computer and uploaded to blogspot. Only if I knew... I guess this practice is not really suitable for Library or Public computers.

I think the I would not recommend customer to use flickr especially in the library computers. Why waste your time? You can use them pretty well if you live in America or have high speed broadband connection only for yourself. Offline Picasa, web camera bundle photo editing application will do better job with no cost.
