Aviary Tools

March 26, 2012

The TLTC frequently assesses new software. We post parts of our internal reviews on our blog, but we do not necessarily endorse the technologies presented here. Please use this post for information only. The TLTC only supports technologies listed in our technology toolbox.

Aviary Tools is a bunch of online creative applications for artists of all genres from image editing and logos creator to audio editing and music maker. I found this suite full of friendly and easy to use tools that can be used right in your web browser.

Here are three applications that I find as very helpful:

Quick Markup (Falcon)

Some of you may find this tool very useful! If you are not looking for Image editing software because you need only to make small marks such as add text and markup the images to highlight the important parts Quick markup will make your editing easier.

Quick Markup’s main features are to point on the important things and add comments:

Quick markup also will resize, rotate and crop images easily if you need and save your image on desktop.

Image Editor (Pheonix)

Looks and feels a lot like Photoshop. It has layers, masks, undo history, effects, brushes that you can customize as well as a good number of filters that make manipulating photos easy. This tool is perfect for basic and advanced image editing.

Vector Editor (Raven)

This one is for people who are looking to create things. Images produced can be used as logos or applied to t-shirts and other garments. The application allows users to work with lines, paths, curves and objects.

Other tools in this suite:

Aviary is also offering online tutorials videos and a Forums that help its users to improve their design abilities.

I recommend to explore Aviary Tools!
