Adding mustaches to photos?

Yes, it's true, I'm trying to find a way to add mustaches onto the faces of my nephews (ages 6 and 8) for a card I'm making. Is there any simple way to do this, if not in iPhoto 8 then some other program?

Just to clarify, I've got the photos in iPhoto, and I'd like to paint or draw little mustaches and then print them on photo paper. Can anyone help me out?

Thanks so much!

iMac, Mac OS X (10.5)

Not with iPhoto but perhaps with one of these: (Starting with the free one and moving on up)

Seashore
Graphic Coverter
Acorn
Photoshop Elements


You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

Terence,


Thank you soooo much for your help! I went with Seashore and it was amazingly easy to work with the pencil and brush tools to add my little mustaches. My nephews will get a big kick out of this and you saved me from many frustrating hours searching the net (I looked around quite a bit before posting but couldn't find anything suitable).

I really appreciate this. Thanks!
