Earlier this week Barbara Boser of 3 Dog Media made a post asking people to turn their avatars pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
So in an effort to help a good cause I tried to play along, however trying to turn my avatar a shade of pink wasn’t as easy as I thought, I ended up being several shades of purple. So I twittered hoping somebody with an “in” would get in touch with the folks at Picnik.com about adding a pink filter.
Turns out the Picnik folks have a twitter account and are monitoring for vanity searches and responded to my tweet …

You can get the full story on the Picnik blog.
Moral of the story social media can be a powerful tool, if you are willing to learn how to use it.
If you are looking to go pink or looking for a good image editing software give picnik a try. Also consider donating to National Breast Cancer Foundation.
