What Does Auto Correct Do?


Photoshop online has a tool called "Auto Correct", this will adjust lighting and contrast based on your preferences.  To use the Auto Correct function in the Photoshop Express Editor:


Click on the Auto Correct function under the Basic tools on the left side of the Photoshop Express Editor.  Once you click on the auto correct button, there will be 6 thumbnails at the lower portion of the screen, just below the image you are editing.  Click on any of these 6 thumbnails to preview how the Auto correct function adjusts your image.  Once you see the image you like best, click on done and save your adjusted image.

Here is how the different settings look on the sample picture we have:

This is the picture with the first settings applied.

Setting 2 applied.

Setting 3 Applied

Setting 4 Applied

Setting 5 Applied

And the last setting applied.

You can play around and check which setting you prefer most based on your original picture.

Photoshop Express Editor - How to Crop Images

There are some pictures which you would want to cut or crop due to various reasons (ex. you want to remove your ex from a very nice picture :)) For this you can use the Photoshop express editor crop tool. For this tutorial, I will be using one of the sample pictures that came with Photoshop.com. For the real thing, you can upload the image you want to crop.

From the main page of the Photoshop express editor, click on Crop and Rotate:



Once you click on the crop and rotate tool, a square with handles on each corner will appear over your picture, drag the handles to resize the square, whatever is inside the square will be the picture that will be left after cropping:


Click on Done to proceed with the cropping of the image, if you haven't save the picture yet, you will be prompted to save it, you can choose whether to save as maximum size or thumbnail.



Here is your final cropped photo.
