Picture this.
You are using the PC at the computer lab in your college or university and someone sent you a picture that you really like, well, except that there is this idiot in the picture that you would like to cut out before you post it up in Facebook. Let’s face it, it’s a PC in the computer lab, what are the odds that this particular PC will have some simple image editing software? 50% chance? 10%? Or none at all?
Well, it’s not an uncommon situation to be in. To be honest, it happened to me a few times before, but it was my own laptop that has no image editing software. To be fair, I just format the machine and had no patience to download anything via a 56k modem.
But fret no more! Don’t bother with looking and downloading a software off the Internet just to edit a few photos. You can just edit them online.
There are a few image editing websites on the Internet now, and most of them are free of charge too! One of them is Phixr.
Phixr is one of Internet’s most used image editing site. They have a very simple layout and the design of the website made it easy to use too. You can upload a photo from your computer or transfer your photo directly by entering the link of you photo onto the form.
After the photo is uploaded, it will be displayed to you with a few menu buttons that you can use to edit your image. The options provided include photo rotation and also flip, crop and scale, change the picture to black & white or sepia, equalize the colors, brightness adjustments, add texts and speech bubble and a lot more on the website.
You will also be able to undo and redo the changes that you make to your photo. After you have finished with editing you photo, you will have the option to download and save you photo in a few picture formats i.e. the jpeg, png, gif, pdf and also ocr (text format).
If you do not want to download or save your picture, you can also opt to upload the edited photo to your image hosting server or email the picture to yourself or to your friends and family.
I think the best thing about Phixr is you don’t even have to register or login to use the image editing tool. I mean you can choose to login but if you are lazy (like me), you won’t even need to bother. I don’t know about professional image editing capabilities (I’m not a fancy image editor myself), but you can do almost ALL of the basic effects that you can think of at Phixr.
