Pixlr [WebApp]
Pixlr is a free online image editor, simple fast and a serious alternative to photoshop when it comes to basic day to day image editing.
Pixlr is built for non-professionals, the users that have basic editing needs. It’s not for large RAW images or for printing. It is merely a tool for editing web images to be posted on blogs, news-sites, social networks like Facebook or image sites like Flikr, Photobucket etc.
Since it is Flash based it means that the file must first be uploaded to their server and then downloaded into the application. The file that was uploaded is automatically deleted from the servers after 5 minutes. The changes that you do to the image in the application never leaves your screen.
Incredibly fast, a click away in your browser compared to the ever so lazy Photoshop load screen (much improved in CS4)Â Pixlr is a serious alternative to simple image editing.Â
