Here are a list of easy to use and free online photo editing software. We will only mention a few of the many that are out on the web, but these are some of the popular ones. We also have more listed in the Resource section of our website.

FotoFlexer

A very easy to use tool for changing the color, shape, and size of a photo. You can also decorate your images with stickers, add fonts, and many more options. When you're done, save it to your computer.

Picnik

This is another free photo editing tool with plenty of options. Unlike FotoFlexer, you can only do some basic editing, changing colors, etc. If you want to add "stickers" as they call them, you have to pay a small fee.

Pixlr Editor

This is a pretty neat online tool. It is similar to Photoshop and other programs like this, not only can you upload a photo and do what you want, you can also create your own artwork. Save it to your computer and print out what you or the kids have done.
