But the static photos and simple animations that Photofunia generates from your images are at a higher quality than I’ve seen before.  And to be honest, those more involved animated films from companies like JibJab, while absolutely fun and entertaining, are sometimes a bit too long.  Photofunia images are professionally manipulated (the shading and effects are top-notch), and easy to create…with everything online lately getting quicker and shorter 140 characters at a time, these images do the trick.

Check these out – the dress isn’t on sale yet….sorry ladies.

Thanks for the tip, Matty
