For creating very cool text art, Wordle is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide. You can tweak your clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes.
This is a FREE web service. You can either take a screen grab or print to .pdf to save what you have created.
Wordle is a great application. Inspired by David Anderson's Creating Silhouettes and Design Elements Using Wordle I created the attached image. It's a great way to add a personal touch to your creations!
A program similar to Wordle is Tagxedo which allows you to make text into a work of art.
Another tool I like is Aviary . It is an online suite of powerful creation tools for image editing, music creation, audio editor, screen capture, etc
Vuvox allows you to create collages, interactive panoramas and dynamic visual galleries.
Xtranormal is an online movie creation program where characters can play out your own script.
Youblisher creates interactive pdf documents which can be embedded as a web object in e-learning courses.
Thanks for sharing, everyone.
