Pixlr Editor

Autodesk Pixlr provides a straightforward photo editing process that even beginners should be comfortable with. With the program's desktop application, you can now use Pixlr offline.

Pros

Accessible tools: Even if it's your first time editing a photo, Pixlr is very easy to grasp.

Effect applications: Pixlr allows you to apply a variety of effects and filters that will look right at home on Facebook and Instagram.

High-resolution outputs: With the desktop application, you get pro-quality, high-resolution output of your work.

Cons

Bottom Line

Pixlr is a very modern and handy image editing tool. However, to really unlock the program's potential, you will have to sign up for a subscription.
