Main features of Pixlr

Intuitive interface

When you download the Pixlr photo editor, you get unlimited access to its intuitive control panel. The palette on the left shows movable panels for editing tools, layer previews, and more. You can easily move these panels around to suit your editing preferences. In addition to the control panel, the program comes with a history tool that lets you scroll through actions and undo or redo steps you don't want.

If you edit an image manually, you can edit colors, add exposure and borders, and view your editing layers using the Overlays function. Pixlr also allows you to remove red-eye from images, add a flicker or blur effect, and remove different parts from the background if you don't want them to appear in your photo.

Each category contains over 10 other effects, with quirky names like Hagrid, Helena, Fred, etc.

 

Edit images with overlays
