Web Presentation Tools And Services For Visual Communication: The Best From Sharewood n°46
This week I have a couple of really great image editing tools to share - one online, and another for your desktop. Who needs Photoshop with its lofty price tag when you can takes things open source? Then I have a color scheming app, for getting those schemes nicely coordinated, and a great service that lets you post your videos to over ten sites at once - fantastic news for those looking to get the word out on their latest presentation fast!

The only differences between the two softwares is that GIMPshop is completely free and downloadable from the web. It works on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux.
