FOTOR<br />
Fotor is last on my list of free editing software to try.<br />
Again, we have an interface which is a departure<br />
from Photoshop but has many of the basic tools. The<br />
icons are all on the left and all have their own drop<br />
down menu so that’s nice and easy to use straight<br />
away. Annoyingly it has ads and the limited feature<br />
but hey, they have to make some money somehow,<br />
and if the ads don’t bother you, there are enough<br />
editing tools in the free version for this to be a very<br />
good free alternative to Photoshop.<br />
As always, I like to check the basic ‘adjustments’<br />
panel first and then I go straight the effects and filters.<br />
I want to know what will make this a bit different or<br />
enhance my images in a way that isn’t going to be<br />
laborious and time consuming to do. I confess I kind<br />
of love the ‘beauty’ effects on this software. I have<br />
added eye shadow to the gecko in the screenshots<br />
on the next page.<br />
The Fotor interface - Nice and simple.<br />
Fotor has good retro filters which I'm a sucker for!<br />
