If your livelihood doesn’t depend on Photoshop but you’d still love to have the high-level capability of manipulating and editing your photos, then I’m here to tell you there’s no reason to drop the $700 on the latest version of Photoshop. You have free alternatives.

One of these alternatives is called Splashup. Splashup is a powerful little photo editing tool that’s easy to use and, unlike many of its also-free competitors, allows you to work on many photos at once. The program works directly in your web browser, provides you with pixel-level control, offers layer functionality (just like that which is native to Photoshop), and comes loaded with tons of effects, filters and brushes built right in. Splashup even integrates with Picasa, flickr, and Facebook.

Download Splashup for free at www.splashup.com. Or, if you find too many bells and whistles a bit intimidating, I recommend you download Splashup Light (from the same URL).
