Free Online Photo Editors
Edit your pictures using only your web browsers
Free Online Photo Editors
The free online photo editors allow you to edit your photographs and pictures online, without having to install
image or photo editing programs onto
your computer. While it's generally more convenient and efficient to download and install your own
(free) photo editor software, sometimes
it's not possible because you may be using someone else's computer. With these online editors, all you have to do is to use your
browser to upload your photos and edit them right from your web browser. Another advantage with an online photo editor is that
you can work from any operating system
you want, be it Windows, Mac OS X, Linux,
or otherwise. Note though, don't fool yourself that the online versions offer features anywhere close to what you can get from
the offline editors, especially full-blown photo editors like the commercial
Photoshop.
Some of these services may also allow you to directly post your pictures to photo sharing web hosts.
