Post production of any photo is an important part. Almost every image needs an edit to give it that wow effect. You will find many image Editing applications online but here are 6 most used and better Image editing software for a fast and classic image editing.

1) GIMP(GNU Image Manipulation Program)

GIMP is probably the most powerful open-source image editor out there . And at some extent , its even more powerful than Adobe Photoshop itself. It loads up very fast contrary to the high-priced Photoshop and is only about 20MB which is very small for its amazing image creation and manipulation abilities.

2) Paint.NET

Don’t let the name fool you, it’s a powerhouse in 3.5MB. Even though you need .NET Framework to make it work, but which PC doesn’t have that these days? It has a pretty neat GUI and a nice ‘arsenal’ of features. And I really opt it for doing quickies, like basic cropping or selection. But that does not mean that it is limited to those basic tasks only, it can deal with layers  and probably one of its most valuable feature is that you don’t need to go through tutorials or books to get the hang of this Tool.

3) Photoscape

It’s another windows based software. It’s hard to believe that such a powerful image editing software is not so popular. Pretty much it has most of the features of Photoshop, with many amazing and unique features like “Face Search Key Features Viewer”

Following are more special features we found in this very interesting web based picture editing tool.

 You can view photos in your folder

 You can create a slide show

 Easy to resize images

 Changing brightness of a picture is too easy

 You can adjust colors, white balance, backlight correction etc. easily

 You can add frames, balloons, mosaic modes and text in pictures easily

 Picture cropping, red eye removal and blooming is much easier than any other tool

 You can create a gif image by combining a series of images

 You can slice a photo in many pieces

 Color picking is amazing

I recommend you to use this tool if you are not a professional photo editor. Even a newbie can easily customize pictures in this amazing and easy to use tool.

4) Photoshop

Everyone must have heard about Adobe Photoshop, the best professional photo editing tool. Photoshop has an express editor. Here is a list of tools we can use in Adobe Photoshop. For windows and Mac it is a paid software but you can try Photoshop’s online version where you can use most of its features like cropping, resizing, color adjustments, adding frames, text etc. in online version If you want to quick fix your picture like cropping, imperfections and color adjustment or you want to add some creativity in you photo than do try soft focus, sketch filters and pop color effects as well. There are many more feature which can be discussed but in short Adobe Photoshop is one of the best photo editing tool available on internet.

5) Pixlr

Pixlr is a web-based photo-editor, but it’s not an ordinary one, probably the best one there. Although its features are the ones you find in almost all photo editors. But its interface is amazing.  Its presentation is very impressive. The tools in this editor are so a quick and easy to use that you can get the most tedious tasks done in no time.

6) faluntR

Here’s another web-based photo editing service that really caught my eye. Well, its vast number of features is what really caught my eye. It’s fast, multilingual and does pretty much all sorts of editing and manipulating work. It integrates with pretty much everything i.e. Facebook | Flickr | MySpace | Orkut | hi5 | Picasa | WordPress | Windows Live Spaces.
