fotoxx

Fotoxx is a free open source Linux program for photo editing and collection management. The goal is to meet most user needs while remaining fast and easy to use.

 Navigate a large image collection using a thumbnail gallery browser. Import camera RAW files and edit with 16-bit color. Save edited images as TIFF-8/16, PNG or JPEG with adjustable compression. Edit the whole image or a selected area, with adjustable blending. Edit functions have live feedback using the full window. Add tags, dates, and star-ratings to images and search using these criteria and (wildcard) file names.

Edit functions include:

+ Brightness/contrast/color adjustments by dragging curves
+ Flatten brightness distribution (frequent quick fix)
+ Sharpen, Blur, Noise reduction, Red-eye removal
+ Trim, Rescale, Rotate any angle, Flip horizontal/vertical
+ Tone Mapping (enhance detail at all brightness levels)
+ Brightness uniformity (fix vignetting and other problems)
+ Composites: panorama, HDR, HDF, Stack (hand-held photos OK)
+ Warp (stretch/distort image or selected area by dragging the mouse)
+ Artful transforms (simulate drawing, painting, embossing)
+ Pixel edit with variable brush and blending
+ Edit parts of an image (select freehand, follow edges, match colors)
+ Copy selected area from one image and paste into another
+ Unlimited undo/redo, fast before/after comparison

Utility functions include:

+ Thumbnail browser and navigator, variable thumbnail size
+ Slide-show mode: full screen, no menu, keyboard navigation
+ Select images from the navigator and burn a CD or DVD
+ View and edit imbedded metadata (EXIF, IPTC, etc.)
+ Add your own tags, star-ratings, and descriptive text to images
+ Search by tags, ratings, dates, file names - show images in browser
+ Brightness distribution graph, live update
