The first image below was found on pixabay.com and edited using pizap.com. I was impressed with how incredibly user friendly pizap.com is. Once you navigate to the site it is as easy as dragging and dropping your photo to upload it for editing. The toolbar on the left side of the website made editing and adding text effortless. Once I was done editing all I had to do was click on the save icon at the top and generate a personalized file name. I could see myself using pizap.com in order to create something on the fly for a webpage, slides, or a social media post. I don’t recommend using pizap.com if you are planning on printing the image, the free version will be too small, thus making the image quality poor.

This image above of Malcolm X was found on pixabay.com and edited using pixlr.com. Pixlr.com is a more advanced photo editing program compared to pizap.com, which has a similar interface to Adobe Photoshop. The interface requires the use of layers, which allows for a more customizable image, unfortunately some of the more creative features of the program require a subscription. I don’t recommend pixlr.com for beginners since it requires the use of layers, which can be a bit confusing. On a final note I would recommend researching Adobe Photoshop or Lightroom if you are looking to make an investment in graphic design software.
