Adobe Photoshop is one of the most famous programs of photographic editing. With a track of years on the market it has a spotless reputation. For experts, like designers and photographers or even aficionados, Photoshop lets you create a perfect, beautiful and extraordinary visual reality.
Now, given the "boom" of this software, Adobe launched Photoshop Express (Now its called simply Photoshop.com) (http://www.photoshop.com/express). its online version with just basic editing capabilities. In a certain way, it can be considered as a competitor for such tools as Picasa (http://picasa.google.com) from Google which offers this service for free.
This version, free for the moment, offers basic and simple tools to edit your own photos and/or images.
Benefits and disadvantages
Photoshop Express offers 2 GB of online storage for images, either to edit them or to share or forward them by e-mail. In turn, it lets you upload your images directly to places like Facebook, PhotoBucket, Flickr and Picasa.
This software was designed mainly for amateur users, so Adobe went to extremes to make it user-friendly, reaching out to a greater number of people. For that reason, for those who have experience in the use of the traditional Photoshop software or other image editors, this new version is a limiting tool if they want to accomplish finer objectives.
Our Experience
The first thing that we should do is go to http://www.photoshop.com/express. Once there, we have two options. One is to test it, double clicking on the [Test Drive
As we have said, this new software is characterized by its simplicity in its use of image editing tools.
With a just a click, you will be able to remove red eyes, eliminate stains, change to white and black or sepia, adjust saturation, tint, change sizes and cut the images, among other basic editing resources. Once you have uploaded your photos, and after editing them you will also be able to sort them out and fit them in different albums, to share them and to exhibit them to other users of the Photoshop Express community. Basically, the software can be handled by users without any experience in the matter. It is a good beginning for those who want to explore the world of image editing.
Let’s try it
Once we enter the website, and after registering and logging in [Sign In], a window will pop up with the option to preview your images to publish by means of [My Photos], your albums to share in [My Albumsl and also to search for albums or galleries within the community with [Browse]. The first thing is to upload one of your pictures, clicking on the [Upload Photos] button. From here you will be able to upload all sorts of images and photos to be published. Once this has been done, the option [Library/All Photos] you will be able to go through all your uploaded pictures.
To begin publishing simply click on the selected image and then with [Edit Photo], your image will expand from its center, and all the editing tools that you can apply to it will appear. Starting with the basic ones ([Basics]) as cut, change saturation, remove red eyes, etc. With [Tuning] you will be able to change the lighting, and with [Effects] you will be able to change the colors or distort the image, among other effects. Once you have edited your image, you can save it clicking on [Save], and that’s it. Your edited picture will appear together with your other previously uploaded pictures.
On the other hand, if you want to sort out and upload your images to the albums, drag your photo to the Albums folder and it will be saved automatically. If you want to share your album with other users, click on the [Share Album] button. Lastly, clicking on [Album Slideshow] your images will appear as slides in a lively presentation so that your friends can see them in a sequence with several transition effects you can choose from.
