Simply upload your pics from your hardrive, MySpace, Facebook, or other image source (just be sure you have permission to use the images you’re working with). There’s no download, and no membership required to play with BeFunky’s photo tools. Once you have an image to play with, you can use the Smart Photo Editing to fix lighting and detail issues, or get funky with BeFunky’s “Design Goodies” or “Marvelous Photo Effects”, including making your pictures look old with “Sepia” or “Black-and-White” effects, putting your picture on a billboard or poster, adding frames and speech bubbles.
