This week we're playing with online generators. Details and links to the generators at this link:

These take Photoshop to the next level or down a notch, depending on how you look at it. A lot of these generators specialize in doing one thing to your pictures, so you can have neat results with minimal work. This picture is of the Christmas socks run through the Warholizer (http://www.shadowfire.de/warholizer), makes a picture look like how artist Andy Warhol did it. These are neat and fun toys, but it almost trivializes the work and any sense of art or value. It would take me a long time and some work even with photo and picture editing software to produce something like this. Andy Warhol made something new and cutting edge, but now anyone without artistic skills but with a picture and internet connection can have something similar.
Here's a text generator I played with from http://www.fodey.com/generators/animated/ninjatext.asp:

Wow, that was deep.You argue persuasively about why you're not impressed with the image generators. Well-done!
