Thing 5: Image Generators
I like image generators for quick gags mostly. Image Chef is easy to update and it loads pretty quickly. The pictures are easy to manipulate. I like the comic strip generator and its many choices. However, BigHugeLabs seems a bit unwieldy. By the way, the FD Toys link on the 23 Things page is not the right address as it goes right back to BigHugeLabs.
Image generators can be a useful tool but I imagine they are used more for laughs than anything else. Much like the Flickr mashups, these links are pretty fun and depending on the website it can be quick and easy to make a picture that has the text you want with it. Unlike Flickr mashups, this will work well on posters, flyers, pamphlets, and signs so that you can get the customization you want for your message without having to manually edit a picture in a photo program. I might be using more of this! These images are from Image Chef.
