Winter hasn't released its grips on us, yet. If you're a parent, like me, you are looking for things to keep your children busy when they are snowed in. When you go to the site Clip Your Photos at http://clipyourphotos.com, you can have a lot of creative fun. Have you ever seen those motivational posters that many schools or businesses place on their walls? You can design your own at Clip Your Photos. Think how awesome it would be to have your children or students create motivational posters. That’s pretty powerful! Some other features at Clip Your Photos that could provide some great creative expression are Ripples, which allows the user to add a water-type reflection ripple to photographs; Face Bender, which allows the user to upload a photo and totally bend it; and Framer, which adds digital frames to your photos. There’s more at the site, too, but they require a subscription to the linked sites. Clip Your Photos is a lot of fun plus offering educational opportunities for your children or students.
