Title: online photo editor (free)
Post by: pbjunky1 on March 09, 2017, 08:27:00 PM
I was interested in knowing what photo editing suites people used to better prepare their pics for posting. I have a Flickr account and that had a photo editing suite (Aviary). Apparently this is a Adobe tool, anyway it stopped working a couple of weeks ago and looks like being long term out of commission despite the hopeful message Flickr post.
It was a simple editing suite but did wellfor my needs particularly cropping/sharpening/toning/ lighening-darkening photos of games such that they looked better for posting.
Necessity being the mother of getting off your backside and doing something I cast around online and found Pixlr https://pixlr.com/editor/ (https://pixlr.com/editor/)
This looks a lot more complex than Aviary but I'll give it a go and I'm sure I'll get used to it.
I just wondered what photo editing suites other use/could recommend?

I use photoScape, download it for free on the net. Pretty basic but simple to use.

Adobe Photoshop Elements Version....An old one.  So it was cheap years ago and is probably even cheaper - or free by now.
