Free Pixlr Plugin Turns Firefox Into Photoshop

Posted by Bradley under Art, Internets

If you ever need to Photoshop something on the fly or require more advanced photo editing than MS Paint can offer, Firefox and web-based editing software pixlr can help you out in a pinch.

The functionality is robust — allowing you to open and save images in popular JPG, PNG or BMP file formats, use layers and define custom brushes.  Pretty much any basic to intermediate Photoshop task can be accomplished with ease.

And best of all there is no installation necessary — it’s 100% web based and 100% free.

Also go grab the plugin for Firefox which saves time when editing images from the web by adding right click “Edit image in Pixlr” menu integration.

A welcome time-saver for bloggers!
