FREE Image/Photo Editing Tool

Customers often ask our advice in regard to the simplest image /photo editing software they should use to perform routine maintenance or creation of website images in e-commerce databases etc., (i.e. inserting a new product image into an online catalog or shopping cart database).

Where the task is simple, i.e. taking a photo image captured via a digital camera and optimising it for the web (i.e. scaling it down and reducing the file size) we always recommend 'Picasa' from Google. (http://picasa.google.ie)

Pros: Easy to use, low learning curve, easy to download and totally FREE. Also a useful application for managing your image and photo portfolio.

Cons: restricted photo editing functionality.
