Sumo Paint is an image manipulation tool that lets you create and edit images straight from your web browser.

Professional image editors like Photoshop can cost a substantial amount of money. If you're a novice graphic designer, you might not be willing or able to pay full price for something that amounts to a hobby.

Good thing there's Sumo Paint. It's got lots of great editing tools to satisfy budding designers. Best of all, it's free and you don't even have to download anything since it loads in your browser.

Image editing

With Sumo Paint you can create your own images or use a picture you've already taken and tweak it to perfection. Sumo Paint offers adjustments like color, saturation and hue and the ability to change brightness and contrast. In addition, there are a lot of fun filters to alter the appearance of your images, from different pixelate effects to textures and different varieties of blur. There aren't as many filters as other paid programs offer, but it's still a good selection for a free program.

If you're a bit more advanced, Sumo Paint also offers support for layers. You'll be able to blend multiple images together just as easily as you could on a professional graphics editor.

Image creation

Sumo Paint can accommodate your own image creation as well, and provides more than a dozen different tools to do so like a clone brush, a magic wand, a selector tool, the ability to add text and flood fill, to name a few.

Sumo Paint is a really useful program for graphic designers on a budget.
