This oddly named image editor offers a nice set of tools for enhancing photos, although many users might not be able to find them due to the nonintuitive design. Launching Photo Mud brings up an interface featuring a treelike Explorer pane for selecting photos, a large preview window, and a smaller thumbnail view of selected photos. Though the program claims to have a rather extensive set of editing features, we could only locate icons for rotation. However, it wasn't until we double-clicked a photo that we discovered the lion's share of the editing functions, which include a zoom tool, various drawing utensils, and settings for tweaking brightness, contrast, color, saturation, and sharpness. The ability to preview and adjust the program's special effects for embossing, posterizing, and solarizing is a welcome addition. We also liked that Photo Mud lets you create thumbnail pages for the Web, as well as photo mosaics. All told, we think this program makes a fine image editor for more inexperienced users, provided the troublesome design issues don't prematurely frustrate them.

It is bad. Don't understand these reviewers

I did not like this. There are much better ones out there, like Microsoft Picture Manager & ACDSEE. This was terrible. One example is to crop a pic, the pic goes invisible & you have to sort of move the mouse. You move the mouse on the blank screen to bring the pic back into focus and crop it the way u want. It was very strange. Never seen a cropper like that. And the resizing is good or bad depending on what you like: to resize you have to type the amount u want it too. Like if the pic is 200 and you want it to 500, you type 500. So you don't just click an arrow like other resizers. Oh, and what I really hated was all your pics in your file are difficult to see. It is a small box housing all ur pics & you can't see them well. You have to keep scrolling down. The whole thing was just weird to me. Wow, it was bad.
