Free Photo Editing

Today I found six new, free, photo editing websites to edit and change my pictures for free! They were fairly simple to use and I got great results...
PicMonkey- This website was so easy to use! It had editing for makeup and also had cool color effects that you can use to change the filter of your pictures! Favorite!
Pixlr- Pixlr is pretty easy to use; it is not as easy as PicMonkey, but it is completely free and does not require a membership to get all of the effects. I would definitely use this website again.
BeFunky- This website had a lower quality editing system compared to the other websites I have tried... It still was free and had good tools, however, I probably wouldn't use it again. Least Favorite.
Ribbet- This website was a lot like Picnik, which I used in middle school. It had lots of effects and was one of my favorites that I saw. The website was high quality and offered lots of different styling options.
Fotor- I liked this website, while it is a little confusing to use, it still had very useful tools. I really enjoyed the variety of options that were provided on this website.
LunaPic- This website was not one of my favorites; it had many tools but I did not enjoy the layout of the website. I would recommend to try it though! My pictures turned out pretty good.

Hefty Henry


ZooBurst is a resource where you have the ability to make cool pop-up books like mine! It is a fun thing to do for little kids. My story was about a whale named Henry. Henry got obese. One day he went to the doctor and decided to get fit and eat healthy. Henry went on to become a stunner and met a babe named Kimmy at the gym. The two got married and lived happily ever after. The story shows the progression of Henry from a couch potato to a happy whale.

Survey Analysis

Based on my survey results, the male specimen over estimated how much protein, weight training, and aerobic training a person should have. The females tended to under estimate these numbers. This is understandable because males consume protein in loads and want it to get “swole”. Males also lift more often than females in high school, therefore the days a week to weight train are overestimated. Most people thought that a banana contained the most fiber; however, the correct answer was raspberries. There was no variation based on gender for this category, and I do not understand why someone would choose banana, that obviously has the most potassium not fiber. Males also projected a higher consumption of water than females. Mostly the males answered in higher numbers for exercise and nutrients and females answered lower. When I asked what people do to maintain a healthy lifestyle, almost everyone said they exercise and try to eat healthy. This is good to know students are maintaining a good lifestyle. When I asked how students could change their lifestyle to make them healthier, many answered “eat more fruit”, or “watch less TV”. These are good answers because they understand what needs to be changed to become healthier and happier.
