Have you ever needed to composite some images together or make some quick touch-ups of photos but have been away from Photoshop?
Last spring, I had to quickly create a temporary header image for a website but was without access to Photoshop. Thankfully, I came across a free, web-based editor called Pixlr. While many sites and photo sharing apps allow us to make some basic color or lighting adjustments, Pixlr raises the bar by allowing users to create an entirely new composition on a blank or even transparent canvas. That particular feature is much harder to come by with web-based editors and makes the software an excellent back-up for designers when Photoshop is out of reach.
If you really dig it, Pixlr is also available for free download for offline use on Windows machines. Check out www.pixlr.com to get started!
Thanks Levi, tried it out and like it! Got confused a couple times in going to the Pixlr menu instead of the browser menu but otherwise liked it.
