I don't know if anyone else has realized this or not; but I thought I'd share it since no one else has mentioned it.
It turns out that the 9000 has some "advanced" picture editing abilities. But they are only available for "medium" (480x640) sized pictures, not the full 1.3 Mega-pixel sized pictures (which is what most people use as default, so many never realize these functions exist). You can change a picture you've already taken to "medium" by selecting the photo in your album then going to "options" -> "details/edit" -> "resize".
Once you have it resized you can then go back to options->details/edit and you will now have a "special effects" option.
Under special effects you have:
Color Tones - You can change the to any of the color tones you normally have available when you take the picture (negative, blue, orange, sepia, etc)
Fun Stamps - Fun stamps are kind of cute, you can add little picture icons anywhere on the photo. Like little hearts, skull, lightning bolt, stuff like that.
Partial Zoom - you can zoom into an area of the photo and enlarge it. Pretty cool actually.
Rotate - Just what it sounds like, rotate it at 90 degree increments
Composite - You can combine 2 photos together, splitting down the middle either horizontally or vertically. Not as versatile as you may want, but it’s kind of cool anyhow.
