Fotoxx- A Great opensource photo editor for Linux

Written by Mel Kham on . Posted in Software

Fotoxx is a free open source Linux program for editing digital photos. The goal of fotoxx is to meet most photo editing needs while remaining easy to use. It can navigate images using a pageable thumbnail window. Change brightness and contrast, change color intensity, saturation, depth, make panoramas and HDR images, fix red-eyes, trim, rescale, rotate any angle, warp, fix perspective, sharpen, blur, remove noise. Edit within mouse-selected area. Import RAW files, edit 16 bits/color. Add tags to images, search by tags, dates, rating.


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
+ Batch functions: rename, resize/export, revise tags, import RAW
+ Generate thumbnails and tag index from existing image files
+ Monitor color check
+ Print images using a standard format or custom dimensions
+ Context dependent help (F1 key)
+ Comprehensive user guide (English)

For Ubuntu you can install it from ubuntu software center or by typing this command in the terminal:

Larry Page is not being completely honest! The manner in which the PRISM program/project works does not need access from company administrators or owners, so called “direct access”; the access to the information is already there. These tech company CEOs take for granted the actual intelligence of most end users of their products. All it takes is a little digging and reading to go from ignorant to informed on these things especially on exactly how the internet works/functions in the U.S.A. I find Larry Page’s remarks just as laughable as Al Gore’s claim to “inventing” the internet/world wide web!

If you, as an end user, are reading this post; I challenge you to research these matters yourself. It really is quite simple with all the “information sites” that exist on the web today ie Wikipedia, & other online encyclopedias that actually list source material, as well as highly respected tech sites and blogs that also list their source material. Be warned: this is only the tip of the iceberg and these tech CEOs know and understand this; they are scrambling in attempt to perform DAMAGE CONTROL to save the company and what little trust thay have left from their products end users/consumers.

Am I a skeptic? I believe someone has to be or needs to be at this point in time! If your not just a little skeptical of the government, tech companies, and the people that are in charge of these agencies and companies; you need to be, even if just a little skeptic. For your own personal protection and security! I know I was a part of this community for over 14 years!
