An amazing free photo editor with lots of extra toolsPhotoscape is an amazing free photo editor. It includes so many filters, tools and special effects you'll find it hard to believe it's actually free.
Full of featuresPhotoscape includes just about everything you need to view, optimize, edit, print and have fun with your photos. In fact, it's so complete that many would call it a free Photoshop alternative. Sure, it's not quite up to the level of Photoshop, but it's truly a great alternative to Adobe's big shot - and it makes photo editing a lot more fun!
Easy to useFrom the program's main window you can choose what you want to do: view pictures, optimize those that didn't come out so well, print several photos on a single page collage-style or perhaps add any of the dozens of filters and special effects included in the program.
Smart interfaceOne of the first striking elements in Photoscape is its uncommon interface design. The application is very striking and in many ways it's easier on the eye than Photoshop.
ConclusionThere's really nothing negative to say about Photoscape. Just download it, test it, love it and keep it forever. It's free!
