Scan & Fix 50 registry issues FREECNET Editors' review
FotoMix is an intuitive photo-editing tool that allows users to create dual-layer images, making it possible to add, remove, and combine elements. Although it doesn't begin to compare to full-featured software like Photoshop, it's not a bad choice for non-professional users who need something that's quick and easy to use.
The program's interface is quite simple, with the five-step photo-editing process arranged with buttons across the top. Users simply select a background image, select a foreground image, do the necessary editing on each, tweak the settings on the final composition, and save the result. We, for example, inserted a giant eggplant into the water in front of a small fishing village. We can't say that it looked particularly realistic, but we can say that it is within the capabilities of FotoMix to combine elements from different images in a realistic way. We very rarely do any photo editing, but we found just about all of the program's features to be intuitive, and the built-in Help file is well-written and thorough. We think that FotoMix is a great choice for users who don't have much photo-editing experience but need a basic way to combine elements from different images or just perform basic edits and improvements on a single image; if nothing else, it's an easy way to crop, rotate, and add text to images.
FotoMix is free, but does include advertising. The program installs a desktop icon without asking and leaves a folder behind upon removal. We recommend this program to all users.

"THE TOOLBAR ISSUE HAS BEEN FIXED !!!!"
Version: FotoMix 9.0.2
Pros
This has been one of my favorite programs for years , you can a lot of things here easier than on PhotoShop
Cons
None anymore , back in Dec.2011 I bought a new Desk Top and naturally FotoMix was one of the first programs I installed.
When I installed it it put a tool bar in without any option for me not to accept it, and I had a hell of a job getting rid of the toolbar , even after I uninstalled the program the tool bar remained, and it didn't show up in my add or remove programs or as any add on , I eventually had to do a system restore to rid myself of the damn thing.
But the problem has been fixed and this great program is safe to use again.Summary
I really missed using Foto Mix because even though I could do the same things with my Photo shop it took a lot more time and work .
So last night I did a little research to see if they changed their policy about tool bars .
Well I found a little piece the owner of FotoMix wrote in face book back in June I believe , he said basically " I am aware of the problem of the tool bar installing without your permission and I am working to correct that, I don't want you to have anything you do not want" .
I know there were tons of unhappy people when they added that tool bar that I think the owner may have had second thoughts and decided to make it optional ? that's just my opinion because I'm sure they lost a lot of fans back then.
Anyway I decided to try it this morning and to my surprise a box came up offering you several options about the toolbar and search engines and so on , BUT IT IS OPTIONAL , I click NO at the very top and the other 4 options removed the X automatically .
I'm very happy to report that the tool bar problem has been fixed , if you click NO it respects that which I might add 90% of the other companies that offer options install it anyway , but the owner of FotoMix is a man of his word and I am most grateful for that because I love this software.
I would also like to add that I downloaded it direct from the manufactures site , if that was the difference I do not know , so if you want their home site all you have to do is google it.
