CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET staff on May 05, 2009
While there are more expensive programs that let you do more with your digital images, Photo Crop Editor lowers the cost and focuses exclusively on cropping.
This is about as simple as a program can be when dealing with photo editing. The generous screen is dominated by the open space for your photos. At the top is a surprisingly short list of commands. Users are given opportunities to select a photo, quick crop, manually crop, select a background, save, and print. Below this are smaller icons dedicated to rotating the picture and zooming.
Most inexperienced photo croppers will want to use the Quick Crop option. After selecting a photo, users can roughly outline the item they want removed from the picture, and a dotted line instantly appears around the selection. From here users can take this image and let it stand alone or select a new background for it.
Photo Crop Editor is an incredibly simple way to perform the act of cropping out a picture and dropping it into another. It has no frills or extras, so if you're looking for all the bells and whistles that other image-editing tools offer, this isn't the program for you. For users who want a simple tool to perform a simple editing function, Photo Crop Editor fits the bill nicely.
Publisher's description
From iFoxSoft :Photo Crop Editor is an interactive photo crop software for selecting and cropping an object in a picture or photograph from its background. The result can then be placed on a different background to create a new picture. Photo crop editor works even if foreground and background colors are similar. Photo crop editor consisting of three steps: object marking: the object of interest can be quickly identified by marking quick mouse strokes, using left-click for foreground and right-click for background, then program lookups object boundary automatically; boundary editing: boundary can be edited directly in this refinement step; background change: crop the object and place it on a new background, the object can be resized, rotated and placed on any position of new background, and it is easy to change background as any photo or color. Then the result could be saved as new image file or printed out.

Version: Photo Crop Editor 1.15
"Doesn't even come close to letting you cut out a specific object."
Cons: It needs a simple way to click around a specific object and then be able to cut it out.

Version: Photo Crop Editor 1.15
"Very useful additional piece of software."
Pros: Very easy to define the object you want to cut out, very quick to find the edge.
Cons: Sometimes fails to find small sections of the edge, but easily rectified. Sometimes leaves small sections of the background showing, but these can be removed in other applications.
Summary: This is the best cut-out software I've come across, better than any much more comprehensive package. Does one thing, but does it very well!

Version: Photo Crop Editor 1.15
"it's a nightmare lazy snapping implementation"
Pros: No at all!!
Cons: poor graph cut algorithm implementation; running ants taking all cpu capacity; horrible user interface; completely wrong boundary editing
Summary: i feel ashamed for you that you dare sell such low quality software, you took the advantage that the authors of lazy snapping at microsoft never published their own version, so all you did was ruin their reputations

Version: Photo Crop Editor 1.15
"why not use a free program to do the same thing?"
Pros: It can crop picture in odd ways, like a star cut out.
Cons: There are cropping programs like ImageCrop and Paint.net that do everything this one does for free.
Summary: Why not make it free?
