Fotor, the Photo Editor You Need to Know About

   I use the image editor available on Fotor all the time. I consider it to be one of the best free online editors available. It has many features and tools that were initially designed specifically for photos but has drastically expanded to be used to edit all types of images. Some of its features include multiple font options, templates for social media posts, image shapes, a library of sticker overlays, the ability to download your own images and overlays, size adjustments, cropping, lighting effects, a transparency tool, background remover, portrait retouching, filters, and so much more!

The best part of the program is that once you create an account, it is free to use forever without being limited to a trial like other online editors. The majority of these features are free for anyone to use. However, there is an option to upgrade your account to have access to everything Fotor has to offer. The simplicity of the website makes it more user-friendly than other premium editors. This is the perfect option for someone new to editing but has enough features to fit most professional’s needs.

Fotor is a Chinese company, but it supports many languages including English. This is important because there are many articles on Fotor that give users inspiration on how to utilize the software to help them achieve their goals. A very relevant example is this article that explains in detail how to use Fotor to add watermarks to images. Adding watermarks, branding, or copyright info on images is very important for all types of users.

My one complaint about Fotor is that there isn’t a tool for color grading sticker overlays. It is something that I’ve been able to utilize on other editors but Fotor doesn’t offer this type of tool. It’s something that is not common enough to be included, but anyone with experience with that type of tool knows it can drastically improve an image.

Overall, it’s a great editor that should meet the majority of people’s needs and I highly recommend it.

The COVID-19 Struggle

Being a full-time student during a global pandemic takes its toll. I was fortunate enough to be taking my classes at SUU as a full-time online student before the pandemic hit. That meant that my classes were not affected by the virus at all. Normally that would have been a good thing, but I watched as many professors were giving their students all kinds of breaks while the only break I got was a professor rounding a 89.9% up to an A-. I had to finish Spring finals week the same week that my grandmother, who raised me when I was younger, died. I was taking exams and writing research papers while my mother was crying because of her mom’s death. I was not able to visit my grandmother in the hospital because of the virus. I watched the funeral through an online stream. Then during the first week of Summer classes my grandfather died. I also had to watch his funeral through a live stream. The family deaths have definitely been the biggest impact of Covid-19 in my life. I’m stressed out ev

Tik Tok and Social Media platforms

   A few months ago, my brother was watching videos on an app on his phone and wanted to share them with me. He urged me to just download the app so it would be easier for me to watch the same videos he was. That app was Tik Tok. What has made Tik Tok so special is how easy it is to share videos with other people. However, I believe this makes Tik Tok seem more prevalent than it really is. It still has a long way to go before it will become the main platform for creators. The first problem is that it is nearly impossible to make money from creating content on Tik Tok. Most people who use the platform for business purposes take advantage of it as cheap advertising and attempt to direct viewers to other websites. With that in mind, Tik Tok is definitely a popular social media platform, but it's not optimized for users who wish to get paid for the content they create.     Twitter remains a popular social media platform for certain industries. In the video game industry, Twitter is

Top 10 most useful skills in Runescape 3 for new players!

With 27 individual skills to train, it can be intimidating for new players to approach the 15 year old game. Because it can take years to get a maxed out account, this is my list of the most useful skills in Runescape 3 so you can focus on what matters most! 10. Agility Training agility allows players to utilize shortcuts. It also allows players to run longer and rest faster. By training agility early on, new players can save hours of cumulative traveling time. 9. Dungeoneering Dungeoneering itself is not very useful. although it allows players to train multiple skills within the dungeon, the skills can be trained more efficiently using other methods. What makes dungeoneering a useful skill is the rewards . Dungeoneering tokens can be redeemed for all types of rewards including tier 80 weapons and the Charming Imp which automatically picks up charm drops. The resource dungeons like the one located in the Dwarven Mine has a deposit box which is especially useful to lower level p
