Caught at a computer without a decent image editor and need to crop a photo or adjust for contrast?

There are two online image/pictur editors that are helpful in a pinch.

MyImager offers basic functionality for editing photos and images.

  • Features

    • Resize
    • Crop
    • Rotate
    • Flip
    • Adjust: hue, saturation, lightness, brightness, gamma, contrast
    • colorize, grayscale, B&W, color fill
    • 18 image effects
    • draw lines, ellipses, rectangles
  • Cons
    • The process is slow because the screen refreshes on every action
    • only edits gif and jpg files

ImageEditor.net offers a better interface over MyImager. Actions occur quickly, there are no screen refreshes to slow things down. ImageEditor also allows for a greater range of file formats. However, some actions are not intuitive and the features are not as complete as MyImager.

  • Features

    • Resize
    • Crop
    • Rotate
    • Flip
    • Adjust: lightness, brightness, contrast
    • colorize, grayscale
    • 20 image effects
  • Cons
    • not intuitive as MyImager: cropping based on setting coordinate instead of point and click
    • no online help to explain functionality
    • no basic drawing tools
