How To Add Special FX Photos to Your Address Book Cards
I discovered some funky, new photo editing features in Snow Leopard's version of Address Book!
When you edit a contact card, you can also assign a photo to that individual by double-clicking on the photo icon.Below that, there are two buttons. The camera button is for taking a photo using the built in webcam. The button to the right of that is for adding special effects. I can't remember off the top of my head if these were present in Leopard, but I'm just discovering them now.
There are six different choices. Try on a few for yourself!
You know, it's soon time to get those holiday cards out in the mail. Next time you're digging around in your Address Book, pruning and gardening your contacts database, you might want to have some fun with a few of the faces in there.
