Image Broadway

CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

Filestream, the company known for favorites such as WinSettings and Turbo Browser, has worked hard to develop this practical, user-friendly image editor. Photographers will like tools for correcting color and tonal values, as well as those for cropping, rotating, and scaling images. Web designers will appreciate the built-in optimization and image-mapping functions. From simple tasks such as red-eye correction to more advanced editing chores, Image Broadway does it all well and boasts a price tag that's easier on your wallet than many competing packages. Though it doesn't offer much beyond the standard array of tools and capabilities, Image Broadway is a wonderful program that provides compelling reasons to take the demo for a test drive.
