Photoshop is great, but it’s also expensive and usually you don’t need the full power of Photoshop for any given task. For example, I often just need to resize images for emailing, but find the tools in Microsoft’s Picture Manager far too basic. PIXLR to the rescue! I have been playing with this free web-based tool, and it’s really impressive what it can do. It runs on Flash, so it is Mac and PC compatible (and there is a separate app for iOS). It edits your images locally within the browser, so PIXLR never sees them, and they never leave your server or desktop. If you know how to use Photoshop, the controls and tools will be pretty intuitive. I found PIXLR to be very easy and fast to use.

Give it a try, I think it will really come in handy from time to time: http://pixlr.com/editor/
