Adobe Photoshop Express beta Video

By Lori Grunin on 28/03/2008

More Adobe reviews , RRP: Free

The good:

  • Slick, attractive interface
  • Useful retouching tools and well-done interface for using them
  • Most operations relatively fast

The bad:

  • Doesn't support photos from 12-megapixel or higher cameras
  • Some unnattractive Terms of Service
  • No filtering or keywording
  • No printing options

The bottomline:

Though there's a lot to like about Adobe's first stab at online photo editing and sharing, you probably want to wait until the company fixes a few problems with the beta — and defangs its terms of service — before uploading scads of photos to Adobe Photoshop Express.
