Here's a video of the Distortion and Free Transform Tools you can use in Phoenix, Aviary's online flash-based image editor.
The distortion tool allows you to distort (surprise) any active selection by grabbing one of the four corner handles. You can twist, distort, stretch and warp selections with it in 3D space.
A great example of ways distortion could be used: To make a person look heavier. This example of Britney Spears used distortion to enlarge her legs.
The Free Transformation tool allows you to rotate, mirror, move, scale, and skew any selection. You can also keep things in the current ratio by holding down the shift key as you use it. This is really useful for placing any objects in your scene exactly as you want them.

I have been following you for a couple of months not (sometimes quietly) and I really admire all that you have done.

It was the day of the big sale. Rumors of the sale (and some advertising in the local paper) were the main reason for the long line that formed by 8:30, the store's opening time, in front of the store.
