Photo Red Eye Remover Free

Today I'll tell you more about two photo red eye remover free programs - Gimp and Fast Stone.

You can use Fast Stone just for personal and educational projects, if you want to use it for commercial too, you have to pay license for it. And you can use Gimp for free for personal and commercial projects.

First we'll remove red eyes with Gimp. You just simply import a picture and outline red eye (pupil) with Selection Tool. You can find Selection Tool in Toolbox, where are other useful buttons too.

When your pupil is outlined, go to Filters - Enhance - Red Eye Removal. And that's it. Red eye becomes black. Repeat with the other eye and red eyes completely disappear.

FastStone Picture Viewer

I have tried quite a lot of photo viewers and editors and I'm really happy that I found FastStone Picture Viewer.

It is freeware, free for home users (personal and educational use), but for commercial use a licence is required.

I know it is not completely free, but for those who are using it just for noncommercial editing it is ok.

- FastStone Image Viewer is fast and easy to use.
- On each photo's thumbnail there is information about width and height.
- If we make changes to our photo, we can see preview on the left side.
- We can remove metadata from our .jpg files if we want to.
- We can save our photo in different formats, like jpg, png, tiff, pdf...
- We can easily crop our photo, change compresion, change .jpg quality and number of colors in .png and .gif formats, because for internet photos is it very useful if photos are smaller (we don't need them to be 5 MB or 4000 x 3000 pixels, because pages open very slowly then).
- We can adjust colors, use grayscale, sepia or negative.
- We can add border or watermark.
- We can change our photo to an oil painting or sketch.
- We can compare images.
- We can rename or convert large number of photos at once (batch rename or batch convert).

Fast stone Image Viewer is also available in portable edition.

Unfortunatelly, it works just in Windows. But if you work in Windows, take a look, try it and I think you will like it.
