Fotojet

Fotojet is a creative tool for making different kinds of collages. It starts with choosing a template for construction—a comic, a magazine cover, a social media post or banner, a classic collage, and more. Then, upload a collection of photos and begin working with them in your template to create your design. You can even add photos right from a Facebook page if you wish.

Cameroid

Cameroid is very similar to Photo Booth for Mac in that it's a tool for taking Webcam pics and then adding cool effects. It uses the built-in camera on your laptop, and from there you can choose from a selection of custom frames, photo filters, or scenes for your snapshot.
