PhoXo Review

A Superb Freeware Image Editor That's Incredibly Fast
Updated 3. November 2011 - 18:43 by r.schifreen
Despite the plethora of free online image editing sites, it's always a good idea to have a picture editor installed on your PC too. Not having to upload your pictures to a remote site saves time, and is more secure too.
There are lots of freeware image editors around, but some of them are slow or bloated. Which is why I was so impressed with Phoxo, which is neither. The download is only around 4 MB, and once you've installed the software it's incredibly fast to load too. But it's not short of features either, as you can see from the toolbars and icons shown below.
You can download Phoxo from www.phoxo.com/en. It runs on Windows XP and above, and I've tested it with VirusTotal to ensure that the installer is free from viruses and malware.
