I just learned something new today and I think it’s so cool.  It’s a new way to display photos online. Here’s a collage of the animals being there amusing selves.

My last post of making Feta cheese had a lot of pictures and I noticed how they were here and there.  Even though I tried to stagger them so they all didn’t line up on one side of the page, it didn’t look as professional as I would like.  I was inspired by Mary Heather on Ravelry (aka rainydaygoods) to do a better blog.  I liked how all her pictures are so neat and tidy.  Then I checked some of the Forums on Ravelry and the Tour de Fleece 2008 group had Day #12 posts and what did I see, someone who posted a picture like I wanted to learn to do.  I asked, “How you do that?” ….does that sound familiar??  It’s a program that is free software from Google, called Picasa.  It’s easy to use.  I found it, downloaded it and had my first collage made before she was able to repond back.  I answered her with this collage of the Betsy Valley Garden Walk, 2008 that I went on a couple of weeks ago.

Do you see the bottle trees in the photo on the right?

Then there is another way to get interesting photo effects without downloading any software.  You can do this online with your Flickr account.  First log into your Flickr account, then go to Mosaic Maker.  I made this little collage of my socks.

Take a look at some of my latest socks!

So I’ve shared some of my new found knowledge with those of you who haven’t found these cool applications.  For those of you who already have found them….why didn’t you tell me?
