Sugar Editorial Picks

I stumbled upon this great blog post, which shows examples of panoramic photos that have been altered in Photoshop to create your own little planets (like the one shown here), and got lost inside the 50 examples they provided for this fun and unique effect. I'm all about learning new ways to have fun with my photo library, so naturally I added this to my editing experimentation to-do list. Plus, the effect totally reminds me of the planets from Super Mario Galaxy, and you all know how much I adore that game.

There are a ton of things you can do with your digital photos and a photo editor besides just adjusting light and focus. You can make them into movie stills, or turn them into Lomo works of art. I happen to like the aged look, and it's always fun to turn them into Polaroids, but if you aren't using Poladroid, this can take forever to make the effect yourself.

I love passing along great photo tips, especially ones that turn your photos from ordinary to extraordinary. Like the time I showed you how to turn your pics into mini models with the Tilt-Shift effect or how to Lomo-fy your digital photos to replicate the lo-fi camera results. I found this tip while stumbling across the web and love the effect it created.

I used to think that having disposable cameras at each table at a wedding reception was such a fabulously brilliant idea.
But now the quality of the disposable film cameras is too shoddy for any possible framers, plus the kind of people who are going to take photos will have already brought their own cameras. To further drive a stake in the heart of this old trend, last year the majority of you voted that you no longer loved it.

The idea of tagging photos is nothing new, but most people use it for things like identification, ala Facebook or Picasa (whose face-recognition technology continues to blow me away). After having had several parties in the last few months for people, and thereby putting together slideshows featuring the guests of honor, I realized how much photo tagging could help me — but with the original files.
I'm finally putting iPhoto's tagging to use; not only will tagging the photo files by the names of the people in them to sort through later, it couldn't be easier.

Do you know what a watermark is? I'm sure you have seen them on a few geeksugar posts, but do you know what are they used for? A watermark is used to tell people who the photos belong to, and especially helpful if you don't want anyone else using them without your permission.

Digital picture keychains are something I haven't had the chance to take for a test drive. I'm assuming they'd make the perfect gift for proud grandparents and doting soccer moms or even the party girl in us all.
From what I've read and heard, they are ridiculously easy to use.
