RockYou.com

Photo slide shows with music.
Text Generator
…and something called “scratch”

RockYou.com allows you to create slide shows and add music from their collection. Also they offer a text generator with a bunch of funky, flashy fonts. Not to mention adding effects to your photos and treating a photo to the ultimate…Lottery effects.

This is cool!

Photos can be uploaded and saved to RockYou. Your photos can be customized by adding different effects including glitter, bubbles etc… You can also add text and music to a slide show that you create. Rockyou is very easy to use. No technical terms to confuse and aggravate new users. Sharing with your friends is as easy as sending an email. Comments are also allowed, creating a “custom photo community” All of this is centered around a embeddable Flash widget. MySpacers rejoice!

This is OK!

Photo file size limit is 3mb. Most photos should come in well under this 3mb limit. Unless you are using a 10 megapixel camera set on highest resolution.
There is a simple registration that is required. This is so you can save your projects and edit them without having to start over each time.

This seems to be an all around good service with easy to create widgets. Great for MySpace users as well as any other blog or journal sites.

Here is the “Steve Irwin Tribute” slide show.
