Photoshop Express Available Online

Adobe Photoshop Express was launched on Thursday, releasing an online version of Adobe Photoshop. 

From the makers of Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Systems Incorporated (NASDAQ:ADBE) Adobe Express features the ability to edit and manipulate images with 2GB of storage space and tie ins to social networking sites such as Facebook and Myspace.  All of this is free for the basic user.  According to John Nack, Adobe Photoshop senior product manager, there will be a paid service for more features.  In addition, the company that has built its reputation off of image manipulation plans to release an AIR version of Photoshop Express.  This will allow users to edit their images offline.

Terry White of Adobe explains the site by saying:

Once you set up your account, you’ll get your URL like mine: http://terrywhite.photoshop.com (pretty cool huh?). You’ll be able to access your images from any computer on the net that has a browser and Flash Player 9.

You’ll be able to upload, tweak/enhance your photos, put together your own Flash based web galleries and share them with your friends. You can also access your Facebook, Photobucket, and Picasa accounts directly. Once you’ve edited your photo you can either share it with someone or download it back to your computer for printing.
