I've had a few people ask me how I edit my pictures.
Let me just state that by editing my photos, I do not mean to look like a different race or am trying to pretend to be of another race.
Seriously.
（＞＊＿＊＜）
Anyways!
Since that's cleared up, here is how I edit my photos!
On the Computer:
What Bunneh mainly uses: Photobucket, iPhoto
Why: Lazy, easy to use, right there
I open up Photo Booth and all I really do is just take lots and lots of screenshots
(Command + Shift + 3 for Macs)
 |
| Taking screenshots as you can see :) |
Once I take a good amount of screenshots, I go through all the screenshots, discarding the ones I don't want into the Trash and keep the ones I want.
Once I go through them all, I crop and save the screenshots I want.
(Crop = Command + K while Save = Command + S)
 |
| Yes.. you're not hallucinating, I have a Screenshot folder. |
I finally select one or two pictures that I liked the most.
Photobucket
I upload it to Photobucket as I do with all my photos for storage.
Once I do that, if the picture is unedited, I go to the Edit option in Photobucket.

Original Photo:
Example 1:
When I got onto the Photobucket thing for editing, click on Contrast.
I changed the levels of the picture so contrast was lower and brightness was higher
Moving to Adjust, all I really did was take make the picture more brighter and took the level of saturation down until I was happy with the colors.
I went back to Contrast one more time and raised contrast slightly.
Done!
Example 2:
For this one all I did was go to Contrast and raise Contrast up a lot.
I swear I did brightness too... I guess not?
In Adjust I lowered saturation and messed around with it until I liked the balance of color and no color.
And then, done!
iPhoto
After I imported to iPhoto, I opened up Edit.
In Adjust, I just did all this and I was done with it all.
No need to go through a ton of tabs to get to what I want, it's pretty much all in one window.
Finished picture!
As you can see, with just a little change, I could change the picture completely.
For tips, on Photobucket, don't do anything else besides contrast, brightness, and saturation.
They have other tools/options like fixing wrinkles, all that good stuff.
But honestly, they suck.
I used to be a Photoshop junkie a while back but I got bored of hiding all my imperfections.
I mean, who's perfect?
I sure am not.
On my Phone:
What Bunneh mainly uses: PhotoWonder, Photobucket (for uploading)
Why: Excellent features, easy to use, fun to mess around with, nice tones, etc.
What I do is take lots, and lots of pictures with my phone.
After, I go through all the pictures (does this sound familiar?), I delete the ones I don't need.
With the pictures I need, I open up my PhotoWonder app.
From there, I just simply click Edit, find the picture I'm looking for, and upload.
That's when the magic starts.
If you haven't already and you have an Android phone, go get PhotoWonder.
It's free but it's totally worth the download.
Personally what I do on the app is mess around with cropping, contrast, brightness, and effects.
It's a great app for other camera w***** like me!
Seriously, you can even brighten skin, and all that other good beauty stuff.
My personal favorites for effects is Autumn and Blue Tone.
Here are the examples of what I mean by Autumn and Blue Tone:
Autumn:
 |
| Warm colors, fall like colors, washes colors out in an amber like color |
Blue Tone:
 |
| More blue like tinge to pictures, darker, more sharp than a wash out effect |
Well I hope that helped some people....
But yeah, this is how I edit my photos really :)
All I do is brighten, contrast, and one more effect really.
