If you’re like me then anything more than the very basics with Photoshop goes right over your head! There have been plenty of times where I’ve thought of an effect for sprucing up an image only to fall drastically short in the ability stakes. Layers, filters, effects, I am officially hopeless. I’ve just had another of these moments, rather than being out partying on a Saturday night like what was supposed to be happening I’m sat at home feeling rough as old shite. I decided to use the time to add a few images to some content pages and I needed a reflection. Sounds easy, reflections are a staple effect online, how hard can it be? Fed up I gave up and hunted around for an alternative to Photoshop. For all us Photoshop non users I’ve found the answer!
The easy answer to all your image reflection needs is a website called picreflect. Picreflect is a web service that allows you to easily add reflections to any image of your choosing. All you need to do is select an image either from your computer or already online and set up a few parameters such as height, transparency and resizing of the reflection and a few seconds later you have your image with a reflection. It’s as easy as that and totally free to use.

Wow, that’s totally awesome! It’s too bad you can’t edit the settings live on the image, now that would be even better! So for now I have to guess the settings, and hope it comes out looking good, hehe.
