Its Free

“There’s nothing sadder than a photo without a home. You hate to see that. Give your photos a free ride with Photoshop Express. Just sign up, then start uploading, polishing and showing off up to 2 GB of photos on our dime.”

Ways to Edit

“Crop, rotate, tweak, twirl, and show off photos here on Photoshop Express, on your blog or Facebook page. Give your friend a tragically oversized head or get rid of the mole on his cheek that’s the size of a small asteroid. It’s totally up to you.”

Community

“The world needs to know how very excellent your photos are, so you’ve got to show them off in a big way. Might want to do that in your Gallery. Display your images in 3D, or a grid. Orlike an alien crop circle. The choice is yours. You control how everything looks in your Gallery.”

Demographic: the young, amateur photographer
