Use simplified image-editing tools The i-Zone site contains simplified image- editing tools that are perfect for kids who aren’t ready to navigate PhotoSuite or PhotoDeluxe. They can simply drop their photos in the image-editing box shown in Figure 11-11, and access the tools (accompanied by illustrated icons) around the edge of the box. Kids can cut, crop, straighten, and resize their images in no time. Create a card The i-Zone offers special tools to allow kids to create and send cards they’ve made using their uploaded photos. You can access these templates from the menu that appears when you click the play Zone icon on any page of the i-Zone website. 216 How to Do Everything with Your Scanner Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on www.verypdf.com to remove this watermark.
