Father’s Day Giveaway: Free Membership to Picnik.com!

By Secondhand Karl on June 20th, 2009

If you use Flickr, you may be familiar with a really cool service called Picnik.com, which allows you to easily edit and manipulate your photos. It fully integrates with Flickr, Facebook, Picasa, Myspace, and many other sites.

It’s like Photoshop on the web, really, and it couldn’t be easier. I’ve been using it for over a year now. All sorts of effects and filters, borders and frames, each accessible with a mere button click. Take a look:

picnik002

picnik003

picnik004

Amazing stuff. And I’m not being paid to say so. You know me, I only plug things I personally use.

I got to talk a little bit with the folks at Picnik.com last year at BlogHer. And because they saw that I’m going again this year, they’ve given me a couple of FREE 6-month Premium memberships to give to YOU, my lovely readers.

It’s a marvy Father’s Day gift. What do you have to do to win?

Merely leave a comment below, saying you’d like a membership. That’s it. One entry per person.

I’ll randomly select two people from all the comments tomorrow afternoon at 5:00 pm Eastern. That’s Sunday, June 21…Father’s Day.

Good luck! In the meantime, go check out the site yourself if you’re not familiar with Picnik. The free features rock, too.

    What, you don’t even have to be a father to win! That almost makes me not want the free membership.

    But I still want one.

    Secondhand Karl Reply:

    @whall, Well, I thought about that, but thought I’d try it for everyone. Since the bulk of my readers have kids, I figured that the memberships would go to a dad somehow.

    You should totally make a T-shirt with that picture on it! I say use the pencil sketch version.

    Reply

    Secondhand Karl Reply:

    @Ren, Ha, good idea. That pencil sketch apparently utilizes X-Ray Vision, because it shows my eyeballs really well behind the shades.

    If I hadn’t *just* commented the other day, I would so not feel right leaving a comment to get a free gift subscription.

    But since I did… and I looove all things photography-related… and since I’m a poor college student… I’m going to leave this comment and say…

    Please-oh-please-oh-please-oh-please pick me!!! :-)

    LoL — And best of luck to all the other, uh, contestants! (?)
