TOP 10 PHOTO EDITING WEBSITES


Here's a list of TOP 10 PHOTO EDITING WEBSITES

NUMBER 10 


The detailed review can be read here.
FunPhotoBox can be said to be a website that is created for you just to have fun with your photos. No serious editing can be done with this very website. If you have no serious intentions of making your photos look good,this is the place for you. 
Filled with ads and less things to edit your photos have put this website on the last place on our list,however,its not that bad. You can apply a few filters if you wish,or make your faces appear in several useless but funny places.
Standing at a score of 6.4/10


NUMBER 9
The detailed review can be read here.
Rollip is kind of an application for PC,desktop users to add easy filter effects onto their photos. The website offers ready-to-apply filters,just upload your photo,choose the filter that suits you most and done! It doesnt offers anything like editing the pictures or making slight adjustments to the images. All it does is add filters.
The website is pretty clear cut  designed and easy to use.
Standing at a score of 7/10


NUMBER 8


The detailed review can be read here.
Befunky is placed on a higher rank than Rollip for obvious reasons,that is the usage of this website is not limited as that of rollip.It offers all the basic features that you'd need like cut/crop/resize/rotate and all along with frames and stickers and all. Some of you might be using this site regularly to edit your photos as its quite famous. Still,they have pretty frequently used filters which might be old school for you cause this is the time of smartphone era. The best thing for this site is also its worst thing,though they have given out a considerable number of effects,most of the effects make the pictures go worst. No matter how high the resolution of your picture is,many a times it will happen that the quality gets ruined.
Standing at a score of 7/10

NUMBER 7 

The detailed review can be read here.
This is a brand new entry to the list of photo editing websites. Some of you might find it as a rebirth of Picasa's Piknik service which is expired for now. The interface is pretty good,providing you with navigaiton via tabs. Ribbet provides you with all the basic features along with some of their own tools which are very creatively named. It has got all the text-stickers thing that you want on your photos along with some of the effects and filters most of which are premium effects and hence you'll have to pay for them. A plenty of the things that they have to provide is paid,which has pushed this website behind the next giant in online photo editing world.
Standing at a score of 8/10

NUMBER 6

The detailed review can be read here.
PicMonkey is one of the most famous online photo editing websites.It offers almost everything you'll need for basic editing,nice set of filters and a nice integrated collage making tools with which you can make simple collages in no time.The problem that the website suffers is its processing,the resolution of the pictures considerable falls off after applying any of the filters. It has also got a little surprise thing called "Themes" for you which is absolutely great! We,recommend you visit the site once and see for yourselves.
Standing at a score of 8/10.

Ribbet

Ribbet, a completely new website I've come through while preparing a review statement for photo editing websites. And meanwhile I was getting bored with my contemporary style of reviewing,I'm reviewing the website as I am browsing it. So, lets just begin with uploading a picture and start doing shit with it.

The first thing that comes to mind, "Piknik", Picasa fans would know it. Its an expired service for now but yes,completely same looks and the toad thumbnails that I saw under effects tab are even stolen from it.

So,coming to the basic effects tab,same old blah blah cut crop resize rotate things. Nothing to do here,lets proceed to the next tab.

Its called,Picks,I wonder why. It has some thing you could do to pass your time,the first thing is plastic surgery,and they give surgerical instruments too,don't get too excited its just an liquify tool,so I'd say,meh!
If you have time,go try some other things too,black and white would be silver screen and so and so. Includes some premium effects too. If you got time and money to waste,try it! Moving onto the next tab.

So,here are the effects and the filters. Nice big list,not so impressive filters. Stolen from Piknik? Yes!

I'm not giving screens for the next two tabs cause they are "Text and Stickers". I don't use them so sorry. But if you wish to use them,there is no problem trying once!

Then comes the touch-up tab,something to look into once.Nothing more than that.

Frames! Oh! Yes! Nice list of frames that you can apply to your photos,but sadly,the ones you'd like are premium.

Now jumping on to the next tab,the PRO tab,all of the tools are premium.Nothing to do here. The only one that's left links us to "Pixlr" , which is already reviewed.

And then seasonal effects,you can try them,I tried,they are not so good.

PROS : 
  • Extremely nice interface. If you miss Piknik,this is its rebirth.
  • Nice list of basic effects.
  • Old but considerably good filters.
CONS : 
  • Premium effects are the only ones you'd like but they are paid so no luck here.
  • The tools that they have provided under "Picks" and "Touch-up" might not be upto your expectations,cause they were not to mine.
OUR RATING : 8.0/10

iPiccy

iPiccy,is one hell of a website I got through recently. Google's page rank however keeps this at the bottom of the page but it has got everything packed under its hood to drag down the website topping the search list.

The interface is very friendly and easy to use,flawless scripts and easy loading without any kind of lags is just tremendous.  You can easily call it photoshop and picasa hybrid.

Yes,starting with the basic effects,it reaches all the advanced effects which the geeks love,like bending the curves and doing shitty things that most of the users have a hard time learning. Color adjustments and every tool will make your pictures simply cooler and nothing less.

Filters include everything you've ever come through and the effects that you are frequently using,nothing new here.However they've got a new section just for portraits,where you can make your skin glow,blush,if you're a tobacco addict,you can whiten your teeth and do amazing stuff that your plastic surgeon cant.
Work on differnet layers,merge them up. Doodle and paint on your images. Add frames from a large frames gallery. Add textures and all. And save your image. That's all. And time to move on to the PROS and CONS.

PROS :
  • Extremely user friendly and easy to use.
  • Everything you can do with your photoshop,you can do it here for free.
  • No ads!
  • Flawless processing time.
  • Numerous things to do with your pics.
CONS : 
  • Virtually none.
I recommend you to just visit the site once and upload the pics on the facebook,guaranteed likes.

OUR RATING : 9.7/10

FotoFlexer


FotoFlexer is the website that totally amazed me. I never heard of it before so I started to do some research on it,uploading pics and doing shitty things you know. And I guess this would be the website I'd be using from now on for quick online photo edits although I have photoshop (licensed,yes).

The interface is mac os inspired and looks great,apart from looks,it has all the features one needs while editing photos,all well categorized under tabs. 

The basics include cutting,cropping,flipping,rotating,removing red eye,auto fix etc. It has got a bunch of effects that you can apply to get quick looks. Again,if you are a small girl who likes to decorate her pictures with quotes,stickers,sparky things and shit,you can do that here.Well,girls,I have a little surprise for you,FotoFlexer has the animated sparkling stars!! yes!! the ones Edward Cullen wears in the twilight!!. It also has the "Layers" feature,the one of its kind which can come in real handy if you are used to photoshop everywhere. And finally the coolest tabs I found, "Geek". In geek you can do crazy stuff with your images like smart resize,smart cutout,curves and morph.

Well the detailed features have been discussed for now and its time to move on to the PROS and CONS.

PROS :
  • Its a sack full of best features that you'd need to edit photos.
  • It looks simply amazing.
  • It can do incredible editing work for you in no time.
  • Features tutorial videos whereever you'll need help.
  • "I like it!" and so should you.
CONS : 
  • Less filter effects.
  • No frames and borders or clipart kind of things.
  • They need to include easy collages.
OUR RATING : 9.0/10



LunaPic


LunaPic is an incredible online tool to edit your photos offering a variety of things to do. The site has got an interface similar to a windows application with a drop down menu sitting at the top,ofcourse makes it look old school but who cares unless it can do the desired work perfectly.

However the options in the drop down menus are numerous,say in the file menu they say you can, save image,open image,webcam capture,lunapic account,from facebook,from picasa and about 20 more. And so are the other options in the list.

Got all the editing options you'd need,and all the other tools to draw stuff on your photos. You can really do incredible amount of creative works with your pictures.Lacking the important feature of filters,this website offers effects that you can apply on the images and change their entire look,make your photo like one of those Obama posters is one or the other cool past time activities.

You can also transform your images to animated GIF files with their animation feature. Nothing more left to say,lets get on with the PROS and CONS .

PROS :

  • All the basic editing tools you'll ever need.
  • Lots and lots of options in every feature.
  • Old school but great interface.
  • Undo history option,so you always have a chance of stepping back if you stepped on wrong.
  • Cool effects can be added on photos.
  • Animation feature to make animated GIFs.
  • Add captions if you're making a meme out of it.
CONS : 
  • Lacks filters.
  • The old school interface can be a disadvantage for the modern generation which prefers to use app like interfaces.
OUR RATING : 8..5/10

PhotoFunia

PhotoFunia,yet another one of the most famous photo editing websites. It offers you a variety of things to do. Apply filters,apply some effects just for fun,or make post cards (which is extremely limited resource on this site,featuring only 4 templates).

The most fun thing to do on the website is "Lab". Just visit the lab here , and make some awesome pictures for yourself. Try it I cannot describe how much fun I had here.

Here are the PROS and CONS : 

PROS : 
  • Incredible fun with photos.
  • A nice set of filters.
  • You can have fun all day with your pictures,applying effects or taking them to the Lab.
CONS : 
  • Absence of basic image editing tools.
OUR RATING : 8.2/10

Rollip


Rollip is a nice clear cut site,offering you about 80 filters as they are saying to help you add effects to your images.

The site doesn't offers any other tools like cropping,adjustment etc. All it offers is a nice set of filters. Simply upload your image,try different filters,whichever looks better,download it.

Since the site has got nothing else to offer other than this,I don't have anything else to write other than this. Better move to PROS and CONS .

PROS :

  • Nice set of filters.
  • Clear,plain simple design of the website.
  • Ads don't interfere.
  • Extremely easy to use.
CONS :
  • Limited filters.
  • No other tools are offered.
OUR RATING : 7/10

Pho.to


Pho.to is a website just for your portrait photo. You can upload your portrait photo and do a number of adjustments to it. Change the color levels and some innovative tools which probably won't work on most of the images like "wrinkle remover","teeth whitener".

The website doesnt offers any other effects which you can apply on your photos other than these things. And so ends our story as we've literally got nothing to say about it.
But just for the sake of readers,the PROS and CONS : 

PROS : 
  • Good for portrait pics editing.
  • Kept simple and plain.
CONS : 
  • Nothing exciting.
  • Boring enough to bore me while writing this post.
OUR RATING : 4/10
Visit : funny.pho.to



FunPhotoBox


FunPhotoBox,I couldn't resist from giving you so many screenshots of this website cause its really fun,for faggots ofcourse. It offers you numerous things to do with your photos,none of which involve editing them and making them look good in any way. It is just for having fun with your photos,so if you're expecting to come here and get your photos edited and made better than original ones,you'll be dissappointed.

The first thing you'll notice when you'll visit the website is "ADS",they are living here in a dense population,comparable to India. Making the website hard to understand,where to click or where not to.

But if you're a guy,who has no life at all,who needs to edit the photos for fun,like making facebook covers of your own ,using pre-designed templates,put your face in photo holes and stuff like this,FunPhotoBox is tailor made for you!

Coming to the PROS and CONS :

PROS : 
  • Huge amount of things to do just for fun.
  • Filters are the only thing we loved about the website.
CONS : 
  • Crawling with ads.
  • Not designed to edit your photos.
  • Pre-designed templates for you to make your personal facebook covers,animated GIFs,cut hole faces etc.
  • Not fun at all,you'll hardly understand where to click where not to because of the ads.
OUR RATING : 6.4/10



PicMonkey


PicMonkey,one of the most famous picture editing online tools. Yes,it has got all the same features which other websites have to offer but yet it stands out from them cause of the popularity among the girls who like to make their pictures filled up with stickers here and there of love and some crazy ass quotes. 

Other things which the website has to offer is an integrated collage making tool,which is not-so-great but yet it can make some simple collages for you. 

The effects this website is offering are newer and trendy and certainly are capable of making your pictures look better. The problem I faced with this website was that I uploaded pics from my Cannon 550D,the resolution was incredibly dropped after applying the cross process effect. However,no such problem occurred when I did it with my 5MP camera phone.

Well,lets see the PROS and CONS for now : 

PROS : 
  • Newer effects,which look much better on your photos.
  • Touch-up effects work incredibly well with your low resolution cameras.
  • If you are a girl who likes to post the pics like the one I've given in the screenshot,and like to fill it with a bunch of stickers of love and some quotes,this site offers you a large number of fonts and stickers,so go ahead!
  • Photo Collages can be generated by just a couple of clicks.
  • It offers you a new thing called "THEMES",you can apply a new set of morphs and filters to your image using this. The themes thingy is probably use less but if you wish to try something new for your images,you'll like this feature.
CONS : 
  • Too basic effects.
  • The frames they have given are completely outdated,the picture would look better borderless than with these set of frames.
  • If you are working with high resolution images and you don't want the picture quality to drop,please visit another website or use photoshop.
OUR RATING : 8/10

Befunky

Befunky is an unusual picture editing website. It offers a number of common features that you'd need to edit your pictures. From common features likes crop,rotate/resize,adjustments to pre-made effects,frames and stickers. It has got everything you'll need to do basic changes to your original photos in a very easy to use way. But remind you,it does only the "basic" things,like vintage filters,pinhole,bnw effects,its no photoshop!
So,keep your expectations low.

Another set of things say that the effects they've given are mostly outdated and you can't use much of them cause they won't suit your sight. If you are here to make your pictures look more appealing and outstanding,I'm sorry to say but you won't get enough to work with,cause the effects they have provided us with will only make your pics worse,only quite a few of them are worth looking into,see for yourself.

Lets get to the PROS and CONS thingy of this website : 

PROS : 
  • Really very easy to use,my retarded sister uses it.
  • Effects and everything basic which you'll need to get more likes on facebook.
  • Everything else is just fine.
  • No watermarks on your photos!!!
CONS : 
  • Boring,old and outdated effects.
  • Most of the effects ruin your photos

Pixlr



Pixlr isn’t Photoshop. But for a free tool that works entirely within your browser, it replicates a remarkable percentage of Photoshop’s most important image-editing tools, and does it very, very well. Its Express and Advanced versions make it a winner for both newbies and serious photo retouchers. It’s one of the most desktop-like apps ever to grace the Web
.

The most striking feature which makes it stand out from other image editing website based tools is that it can be changed to the level the user wants to use. For example you're a noob (I'm not),you wish to use the website like a phone app or something similar,then you can simply choose "PIXLR EXPRESS (EFFICIENT)" or "PIXLR-O-MATIC (PLAYFUL)",the latter being the PC version of their famous android application. If you think you're a badass,use the advanced version and so on.

Coming to the kind of work you can do with it, I say its just perfect! You can add effects you can adjust every other aspect of the picture online with a bunch of easy to use tools! What else do you want!

I'm excited about the CONS but for you,the PROS are mentioned too :

PROS : 
  • The most important feature is the usability,it keeps in mind the noobs and the pros.
  • Effects are amazing,and in a huge quantity.
  • Online free photoshop! Who doesn't wants to use it?
  • Best quality images produced,I compared to other competitors as well.
  • Least glitchy online image editing tools.
CONS : 
  • Not so popular! 
  • On a serious note,people are rarely wanting to use the advanced version (online photoshop),cause its time taking,heavy,and difficult to use,but the other two versions make it up for it.
OUR RATING : 9.2/10

TorrentButler


Aah! The smell of free pirated movies in the morning! Lovely! To be honest,this would be the most loved place for the pirated movie lovers. All the latest and the popular movies on demand,available for torrent downloads as well as direct downloads (I absolutely had a hard time using the direct download option).

The place is crawling with movies,here and there, everywhere! The movies are available in all kinds of rips and formats that you want,BluRay Rips in different categories,high definition rips,everything in torrents clearly mentioning the number of seeders to help you choose best torrent for yourselves!

PROS :

  • All movie rips available,a huge range to choose from.
  • Torrents! We love torrents!!
CONS : 
  • No point of direct download links.
OUR RATING : 9.7/10




SkidrowGames



Skidrow Games,the perfect undercover organisation for creating repacks and providing us all with their incredibly well boxed games. This is their site,covering all their releases,from PC versions,PC repacks to Xbox and PS3 games.

All games they ever reproduced are listed here,some with direct download links and some with torrent links,and you know whats better for you.

Standing out,this site features absolutely nothing,but hey! its the games you are here for and what you want is what you get here!

So enough with the nagging,read the PROS and CONS now!

PROS :
  • Games! All of them! Keep on browsing all day long!
  • Repacks! If you got no time for downloading bigger games,go for repacks,they are smaller!
  • Direct links plus torrent links,choose whats best way of downloading for you!
CONS : 
  • Direct links might be expired. If the game is in parts,better check the direct links for all parts,cause if one piece of your puzzle goes missing, its of no use.
  • Torrent links are not available for all the games,however,you can look for the game you want,see the screenshots and everyother crap and then google..."your game skidrow torrent"...you might find it...but I'm not sure I'm sorry.
You love games as much as I do,then rate it yourself in comments,however I'm gonna rate it at...

OUR RATING : 8.1/10


TopTenReviews

TopTenReviews,the name says it all. Select a category and the website gives you the top ten things in that category that you should consider, be it a software,a service,an electronic item or anything.

The website looks effing awesome! The use of windows 8 like metro style tabs,extensive css makes it look beautiful and elegant yet too easy to use.

I'm sure you Google something like "Best antivirus softwares" or "Best web browsers" or anything like this and the top link will be this very website featureing a top 10 list of what you want and making it easier to choose your product for yourself.

Well,enough of chitchat,time for PROS and CONS :
PROS:

  • Powerful reviews and products are reviewed on each and every measurable characteristics.
  • Everything is mentioned as is should be flawlessly.
  • Categorisation is pretty nice.
CONS:
  • Reviews are considerable till the first 4-5 items,after that,the list gets clumsy.
  • If I ask you to prepare a list of top 3 or top 5 popular type of products,its 90% probable that your list would be the same as that of this website's,seems like popularity afterall is better to judge a product than to read its reviews.
OUR RATING : 8/10

Dilandau


Dilandau is a website that we say,would come to your mind first,whenever you'll think of downloading a song,ofcourse for free.

The site is extremely well managed with the songs,all new ones,the chart toppers and everything that your dad used to listen to in his teenage days.

The songs are available in multiple quality options,the squeeky 128kbps versions to 360kbps high definition versions.

The song that you have just seen topping the charts is available here with numerous versions,the remixes,the instrumentals.

Well,we used the website and here are the PROS and CONS.

PROS :

  • A huge library. With huge,we mean HUGE.
  • All songs well arranged in categories as well as a search option to find the song you want.
  • Its all about songs,ads are sleeping on the sidewalks so nothing comes in your way.
  • No redirections to other blogs or anything like that,all at one place.
CONS : 
  • You might not find the song you're searching for,which is a rare possibility.
  • Downloading a song might be frustrating depending upon your browser,cause I need to right click on download link and save link as an mp3,thankfully my download manager catches the song automatically,otherwise I'd have a hard time downloading mp3s.
  • Some of the songs are mislabeled. I guess 2% of songs are mislabeled.
Neglect the CONS man! You want free songs! And this is the place where you can find them easily. Go on and have fun.

OUR RATING : 8.5/10

Android Drawer

Android Drawer,is an APK repository,containing all the applications (Well actually,most of them) as *apk files,which you can keep on your SD cards if you wish,or you can install if you are facing some trouble using the playstore.

Anyways,coming on the site,its quite elegant,looks too nice and cleans with the color pattern which is not too glitchy for the eyes. The site seems to be quite light weight and fast loading.

The site contains almost every application you've come across so far,with all the versions released yet. I know its pointless to keep the older versions but no,sometimes the older versions are more stable and better suit the users. So its absolutely fantastic keeping track of everything at the right place at once.

Nothing bad with the site,no ads exist which disturb your surfing,they are sitting at the right places all the way. Every app has two download mirrors,if one doen't works the another works fine,but this is a rare possibility with android drawer.

Well,the PROS and CONS for you :

PROS :

  • Everything at once! and at one place,you don't need to follow the links.
  • The site is really light weight and loads up quicker. Seriously,I'm on a 40kBps bandwidth which the mayans used once and it took absolutely no time!
  • The repository is well updated frequently and is as huge as  Yo Mama's ass.
  • Its smooth,and absolutely flawless,and if you want to download some quick APKs,I'm damn sure you'll find the application at this place.
CONS :
  • Some of the older than jesus versions might not work for you.
  • You clearly have no idea of what supports your phone,cause I downloaded some older versions for my Samsung Galaxy S2,and they are causing glitches.
Keeping it plain and simple,you want an APK for god-knows-what reasons. Visit this site and get whatever you want in whichever verison you want.
OUR RATING : 9.7/10



Worldfree4u



A fairly well maintained blog,giving away the same stuff starting from Games,to movies and songs and etcetra. Graphically the website is totally crap,but the stuff they have is pretty cool apart from the 300MB movie rips they keep which totally suck,only for playback on devices like Nokia 1100.

The site however keeps a lean archive of games and stuff,and the thing with the direct download links is,they EXPIRE! Just a little thing that one doesnot understands.

The website has grown up to cover up a vast readership,approx 14k for now,mostly of which belong to south asian region.

Here are the PROS and CONS to help you judge it.

PROS : 
  • NO POPPING UP ADS AND CLICK ADS! Now you can surf the website without getting frustrated.
  • Well managed archive and also,updated frequently.
  • More focus on movies however the games they keep with them are the popular ones,they don't keep every game they get to find on the internet.
  • Songs archive specially for Hindi users is well maintained if you want songs as entire movie albums.
CONS : 
  • By the time you look at the site,it is horrible.
  • Searching for a particular item on the website can take much time.
The site seems to be almost ads free which is perfect for the users who have unlimited download limits and free time to download free stuff from everywhere.

OUR RATING : 9.2/10
