1-For a free image editor that lives within your browser (no software download needed), Pixlr is the best free dupe of Adobe Photoshop out there.
Pixlr has many of the same functions as Photoshop, and the layout is on-point, complete with a customizable user interface with resizeable and moveable menus. Pixlr even has the same keyboard shortcuts as Photoshop.
However, while many of the tools are similar to those in Photoshop, Pixlr's still pale in comparison in terms of capabilities. For instance, be careful not to overdo and layer too many effects -- the result can look really fake really fast.
Nevertheless, Pixlr is overall a great image editor as close to Photoshop you're going to get, without paying a cent. You can upload images from your hard drive to edit, open images via URL or even open images from online libraries like your Facebook account.
Qdobe is a simple online image editor good for beginners. You can import photos from third-party libraries like Flickr, Facebook, Picasa or even Photobucket, or upload from your desktop.
2-The Qdobe setup is similar to a simplified layout of Photoshop, but with fewer tools. Qdobe has basic utilities, but even so, tools like curves, levels, hue and vibrancy are absent.
Qdobe is good for simple cropping, smudging and otherwise very basic tools for fast and easy touchups on the pixel level. One complaint is that Qdobe does not have keyboard shortcuts.
