Are you looking for a free, easy way to edit photos or create images? This week’s article focuses on the web-based photo editor, Pixlr. Pixlr includes a wealth of tools to make photo manipulation easy and available from anywhere.

Pixlr provides an online interface for photo manipulation that is as simple or as comprehensive as you would like. It can be used to crop a personal photo for use on a social network page, adjust colors or reduce redeye effects, or to add an artistic touch to a photo or drawing through the use of filters.
The biggest benefit of Pixlr is its fast time-to-editing. There’s no need to create an account or download any software. Just visit http://pixlr.com and get started editing!
