Marvelous Photo Effects with One Click!

Tuesday, April 14th, 2009

It’s amazing how far we’ve come in the last 10 years. With digital cameras dropping in price and hard drive space getting more abundant and a lot less expensive, we can store a seemingly infinite number of photos in a relatively small amount of space. Unfortunately, those memories rarely leave our computers.

Gone are the days where bookshelves and coffee tables are stocked with family albums of captured moments and photos. So wouldn’t it be a nice surprise to throw all of those amazing memories into an album?

A fully illustrated album would make a great gift idea for Grandma and Grandpa who might not have access to a computer. Got a friend who’s graduating? An album featuring all the great times you’ve shared throughout the years can make an awesome grad gift.

By using BeFunky’s Photo Effects, you can make old photographs come alive in an exciting new way.  Let your creative juices flow and get wild with your memories. Get started with BeFunky Photo Effects.

2 weeks ago we were at Stanford for Global Technology Symposium. This year the Global Technology Symposium hosted a start-up pitch competition for early stage companies. BeFunky applied for the competition and selected as one of the six finalists. We were honored to present BeFunky on the stage to a selection committee comprised of professional investors, including Draper Fisher Jurvetson, August Capital, entrepreneurs, and executives from corporate technology giants, such as Microsoft. We received valuable feedback on our BeFunky platform. Photos from the event are here
