Photo editor Aviary is now free

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

There are a number of fine image editors online: Photoshop.com, Picnik.com and Fotoflexer all do a great job. Aviary is one of the best with multiple editors, options, innovation and versatility.  Unfortunately, like many of the editors,   the advanced applications come with a price tag — until now.

Aviary released its upgraded version to the public for free.  This is a great opportunity for people who do not have Adobe Photoshop.

Aviary has many useful editors.  Phoenix, its standard editor, has layers and masks.  Peacock is dedicated to special effects. Toucan is the color editor.

Additionally, the platform has an audio remixer and offers the world’s first online vector editor.

Some of the features, such as the watermarking tool, are still marked as pro.  If you click on the pro features, you will be directed to the new page announcing the free feature and instructions on how to use them.

Aviary has one of the best sets of Web-based tools on the Net. It’s well worth your time to at least familiarize yourself with them.
