it's recommended. This lets you disconnect links
when you're done with them. Creating an account
is free. www.babble.ly

It lets you upload custom photos and create text.
Photos and text can be dragged anywhere on the
screen
Edit text for size and color, add fun text
animations. You get a permanent link to the
message that may be shared by e-mail or social
