Can you recommend a good free online photo editor?

[Not Heidi]

I'm scanning about a hundred photos for a photobook celebrating my 60th birthday. I need to be able to edit some of the pictures.

Know of a site?

Thanks!

1. Google Photos?

Your computer probably has a photo editor built in

2. Decent

I use this free online image editor for basic functions only.

9. This is the one I've been using, Ahna KneeMoose

Unfortunately, it can't see the picture that is in my head. For example, it can't correct the colors of a faded photo from 50 years ago.

10. Understood

And thank you most kindly for your response.

Sadly, I also have a secured 'tin' of those (similar) images (locked away now...forever).

13. Why locked away? n/t

14. 'Locked Away' (A Story)

Not so long ago (as an olde), I was able to vist the city wherein my beloved elementary school stood; however, that time was most unpleasant. The school building as well as the entire surrounding community had been transformed into a freeway overpass system with several interconnecting routes. Every memory I wished to re-capture was gone forever.

Now, that 'tin-of-photographs' is all that remains of my childhood, save for the contents in my mind. I savor those images on occasion, only to be brought to tears (each time). Thusly, I agree that it is not (typically) a good idea to attempt to re-vist the past, as the folks you held dear are not (now) there to share in those very precious memories.

And there you have it: A Story ('locked away now...forever')...

4. I've heard that "the gimp" is good.

https://www.gimp.org/

There are videos on YouTube about using it.

Personally, I use Paint Shop Pro, which I pay minimally for. Like a lot of software, to get it cheap and legal, just buy a previous year's edition on eBay.

5. One of the more Photoshop-esque ones is

https://pixlr.com/

There's a learning curve, but I tend to use it when MS Paint isn't enough.

12. I use Irfanview, but it may not be online...

... I downloaded it to my laptop. It does everything I want it to.
