Adobe Photoshop Express

Hello to all my dearest readers, i’m gonna share with you all my opinion and review about all this new Adobe Photoshop Express - currently in beta stage. Ok, this review is based on the time i tested this web application. My first impression about this web application is, WOW! so fast, fast here means the loading time of the web application. I didn’t expect that speed because i know how slow my apartment internet connection, but anyway, this web application seems can be load fast in such a slow internet connection, good. But then i think, can it compete with Picnik? Another free online photo editing tools that i reviewed last time. You can read it here.

First thing first, if you wanna use this free web application, all you need to do is to sign up for an account for free. Although you can use this web application without an account, but you can’t upload your picture. Without an account, you only can used the pictures that shared by others. My recommendation is, just register for a free account and get free 2GB of images/photos hosting! Sound interesting? The registration is not so complicated, just provide your email, name, password, birth year and country. For country, only one selection available, just select it. After register for an account, you’ll get a confirmation email and you need to verify your email for your account. After that, you are ready to use this web application.

Ok, this is my review. The interface is quite neat and nice. I like its dark grey interface colour..huhu. You can see from the screenshot below. The menu also located nicely and very user friendly. So, it won’t be a difficult for a first time user.

You can see all your photos by clicking at My Photos menu. To edit your photos, just click which photo you want to edit and click Edit button at the bottom part. Then just select what editing you want to apply to your photos from the left panel. Unfortunately, there are not so much you can editing you can do. Just a simple editing like colour balance, white balance, black and white and others simple editing. You also can’t adjust all that editing manually, everything was already set automatically when you select which editing you want to apply. Just select from what they already created for you. Everything was created automatically. If you want to add some text into your photo, just forget it. There are no such a thing in this web application, you can’t add any text, decorate it and etc. Its just a simple photo editing tools.

One thing i found out is, somehow this not really good la.. whenever you want to save your edited photo, it would replace your current photos without asking you, so i think before do any editing, make a copy first.

So what’s the conclusion? Still far to compete with Picnik, so many of things still not available like inserting text to photo. But, to think that this web application still in beta stage, maybe it can be considerable. If you want to get more into editing your photo, i will recommend Picnik compare to this one.

Pros:

• FREE online photo editing tools
• FREE 2GB of photo hosting
• Personal photos gallery URL ( http://<your_name>.photoshop.com )

Cons:

• Not so many editing tools available.
• Edited file will replace the current file.

Anyway, i’m looking forward for it final release. Here is the sample photo that edited using this Adobe Photoshop Express. What do you think? Try and experience it yourself.
