Free image editor containing the most common and basics features.
If you thinks that Adobe Photoshop is an application that is too much for you and you don't make the most of all of its features but you do
dominate its interface, it is possible that
Active Pixels will convince you to leave aside the enormous and heavy editor by Adobe.
Like in another
image editor,
Active Pixels includes the basic features, like work with layers, redimension and rotate the images,
paste, move and even to apply all kinds of filters. It is also possible to take an image out of focus or even add noise, sparkles, and some more eye-catching effects. Of course, all this with a really simple interface and where everything is exactly where it should, not like other editors where finding an option requires to browse between various menus and windows.
What's more, as a
good photograph editor, it allows to play with the contrast, brightness and the tones, adjustments that can also be left in automatic mode.
Active Pixels isn't a competitor to more professional editing applications, but it is true that it can perfectly cover the needs of the great majority of users.
