Photo505 vs. Photofunia

This is my review on two of the photo editing websties we were given. These two seemed the easiest to compare so that is why I am using them. Let me just say that both are extremely easy to use. All you have to do in order to make a funny or artistic photo on either of these websites is a photo to be uploaded, thats it. So I used photobooth the mac program in order to take a picture of myself to use on both webpages. Here is the pic:

Flattering isn't it?

Lets start with a quick comparison of the same basic picture concept.

          Photo505                                                                       Photofunia

            

Both can offer some realistic depictions of whatever it is your trying to portray but nine times out of ten photofunia is going to offer better results. Photo505 can be good but a lot of the effects don't tend to work out very well, for instance:

As you can see the face did not blend well and it looks unnatural and rather hysterical.

With photofunia I tended to get much better results like these pictures:

The pictures tend to look much more natural. Both programs are hysterical I just feel as though photofunia does a much better job at what it does.

Winner: Photofunia

• This site offers tons of effects to put your taken picture into. Its cool because it tends to do a better job then other websites (photo505).
• Extremely easy to use, try it for yourself.
• Not nearly as in depth as photoshop. Photoshop is professional, this is mostly for a quick laugh.
• Anyone ranging from kids to parents, the only audience this website seems to miss is the professionals but like I said this website does not compare to photoshop at all.
• Both websites I looked at are great for a quick laug or share on facebook/email.
• Absolutely. I think anyone can enjoy this simple website.

Loser: Photo505

• This site offers all the things described earlier it just doesn't tend to do a very good job. It does however seem to do well at having modern effects or pop culture references (iron man 2).
• Extremely easy
• If photofunia doesn't compare to photoshop then this website is completely off the grid.
• Anyone except experts, I'd recommend photofunia though.
• -
• No this website does the same thing as photofunia but it doesn't do nearly as good a job.
