If you need a editor of photography for your Mac and you do not want to pay for any since it is possible that include advanced features To which you do not get a return, you would obviously be losing part of your investment with it. That is why now Pixlr makes it easier for you and is that this photo editor, already famous for its web application, now lands in desktop versions for Windows and Mac users with a native application for both systems.
This popular web application is now available as standalone software so now does not require an internet connection for your use. But we must bear in mind that the free version is not exactly the same in terms of possibilities of what we would get with the web application.
In many ways, this desktop software is very similar to what we could find in the web version Pixlr Expressthat is, users can crop, resize and rotate images, adjust color and contrast, apply red-eye reduction, or simply use the "auto-correct" button. The app even includes dozens of filters, overlays, borders, effects, and stickers too.
Pixlr too add some new features and effects to the desktop version, such as a "double exposure" tool and can also handle high resolution and uncompressed images, thus preserving EXIF data. The text overlay tool can also be used with all existing system fonts.
On the other hand, not all the features of Pixlr Express made it to the free desktop version. In this way, for example, it is not possible to scribble freehand on top of photos or other different tools. Although the intention of Autodesk, the company behind Pixlr, is now free, it intends to include "premium" features by paying an extra $ 2 per month or $ 15 per year.
