5 really powerful Online Image Editing Tools

Aug. 30th, 2007 By Aibek

There are lots of image editing applications out there, some focus on resizing, some on image editing, and others on photo enhancements. Here is a list of online image editors that incorporate most of the above mentioned functionalities in one application. In addition to nice interface and rich choice of image manipulation (and resizing) features some of them also give you an option to:

  • import images from your photo sharing account (i.e. Flickr),
  • upload and save image on one of the free photo storage services (i.e AllYouCanUpload),
  • instantly grab image any image from the webpage using provided bookmarklet,
  • and more.

We have previously mentioned them in MakeUseOf directory, so I am just posting the screenshots. However if you need a detailed overview just follow the link below each app.

Wow… FotoFlexer looks pretty impressive I must say. Amazing how far internet technology has come.

Yes FotoFlexer is nice, but I find http://www.picnik.com even more cool.

@ Jasper
Picnik is a nice one too, especially it’s user-interface. However it doesn’t have as many image manipulation options as the other ones.

I prefer FotoFlexer. I think it offers the best combination of rich features, and a clean mac-like interface. Also, it’s pretty fun to use!

flauntr and picnik are worth checking out.

Does any other online photo editing service provide a Firefox add-on other than Picnik? so one can simply right click on an image and send it to the photo-editing service to edit it.

There are plenty of them, I can’t recall anything specific but you can check them out here.

I really liked your collection and agrees about fotoflexr but I think you should include Irfanview and Gimp as well in the list. Gimp might be slightly technical but it have features equally good as Photoshop and Irfanview is really easy to work upon with its great capability to save for web and reduce image size option.
