PicMonkey

By far our favorite and most used photo editing site is PicMonkey. PicMonkey has a free account option which allows for basic editing of your photos, as well as text overlay, “badges,” cropping, resizing, etc.

It also offers the creation of “collages” – groups of images organized with dozens of layout options.

The paid account allows for ad-free editing including 40% more effects, Twice the Touch-up tools, more font options, 50% more Frame, Overlay, and Texture options, and Extra layouts in Collage.

Canva

Canva is one of my best-kept secrets – an incredible site for making gorgeous, professional images for your blog and social media sites.

You can make a variety of different size and shape images and banners and share or download directly from their design studio.

You can even make videos by animating images right inside Canva!

iPiccy

iPiccy is another online photo editing site that lets you edit, retouch, and add effects to your photos.  

Our favorite part about iPiccy is the “Paint” version which allows you to easily free hand draw directly on your images.

PiZap

PiZap is a fun and funky photo editing site that was designed for social media sharing but has become a great place to create “shareable” pictures for your blog.  

Easily create funky photo collages, timeline covers, implement cool backgrounds and even add effects to your own webcam!
