There is no simpler and faster way to improve the surrounding reality than to tweak it in a photo editor). But seriously, the ubiquity of simple and fairly functional image editing programs allows any user to literally in a few clicks do such operations that previously required professional knowledge and appropriate tools. Today we would like to introduce you to one of these “new generation photo editors”.

Fotor is a web application for editing and various image manipulations. The service start screen is made in the trendy metro style today and is represented by tiles for calling the main functions of the program. Here we see that Fotor can create photo collages, apply various effects, create HDR from multiple shots, overlay text, add frames, and so on.

After opening the file (from a local disk, from a network address, from Facebook or Flickr), we get to the main window of the program. The interface is quite original, but very convenient. On the left there are tabs with tools, in the center - the editing area, on the right - the open files panel, which can be hidden. All possible functions are divided into categories, when selected, the desired toolbar opens smoothly. This is how, for example, a list of basic image editing tools looks like.

When you start getting to know more about the capabilities of the application, you will see that Fotor can do a lot. Automatic tools for correcting shooting errors, dozens of different effects, many options for frames and various clipart for decorating a photo, ample opportunities for adding text will help you make an artistic photo, a greeting card or a funny cartoon out of a simple picture.

I suggest paying special attention to the Brushes section. There are a few interesting tools here, with which you can make the entire picture in black and white, but with several areas of color, or change the depth of field in the picture, highlighting the desired subject against a blurred background, and so on. Interesting effects that you should definitely try.

Besides great functionality, the photo editor Fotor can amaze you with its excellent responsiveness and speed. No thoughtfulness, no slowdowns - all operations are carried out instantly after pressing the appropriate button. Bravo!
