Pixlr: An online image editing tool that's almost identical to Photoshop

The interface of Pixlr will absolutely make you think it is a Photoshop. It has the same menus, toolbars, layers, etc. as Photoshop. The interface of this online image processing system built with Flash is quite good, with fast loading speed and response time. Of course, in terms of functionality, it can't compare with the powerful Photoshop, but it can achieve basic functions and perform operations such as filters and color balance. Especially, the buttons in the toolbar are almost all available in PS, including the famous magic wand. However, the only drawback is that Pixlr cannot edit text, but I believe this basic function will be added in the future. One unique feature is that it also supports editing multiple images simultaneously, just like PS, which is quite rare. The final completed image can be saved in JPG or PNG format, and for JPG, you can choose the compression rate. Of course, it won't give you PSD :D
