Make Your Own Magazine Cover

By , About.com GuideAugust 22, 2005

Follow me on:

It's Monday morning...back to work after a (hopefully) fantabulous weekend, and maybe you're having a bit of trouble getting into the swing of things?

Well, this likely won't help you get productive, but hey. It's still cool. Check out Make Your Own Magazine Cover, a nifty little application that helps you make your own Flickr-based magazine cover. Here's one of the samples that was on the site:

This site not only has the magazine widget, but tons of other cool Flickr apps that I guarantee you'll want to fool around with. Here are a couple:

Mosaic Maker: Make your own mosaic.

Badge Maker: "Make your own (unofficial) flickr badge. Print it out, laminate it, wear flickr with pride! Show the world how truly photographically geeky you really are!"

Find out more about Flickr. This week, Yahoo and Flickr merged passwords, making my life somewhat simpler.

The site you mention at bighugelabs.com is my favorite of the “make your own magazine” because it is the only one I’ve seen that allows users to fully customize by choosing the text, font, etc… and yet the templates almost guarantee a good result.

The site also has so many OTHER fun photo-manipulation tools, including those you mention plus a number of others.

Very fun to use on blogs, too! Here’s a funny post I wrote today with my own “magazine covers”:
