Pixlr Editor and Pixlr Express now work with Google Drive


I’m very excited to announce that both Pixlr Editor and Pixlr Express now work with Google Drive, the new cloud storage and collaboration service from Google. 

I started Pixlr because I wanted to create the best tool possible to edit photos anywhere and everywhere—no downloads, no installations, no hassles. Just open any image file and you can get started in Pixlr. And today opening that file just got easier. With Google Drive, you can have your image files accessible whenever and wherever you need them. From one computer to another, or one person to another…it puts you in complete control of how, where and with whom you want to work.

Sounds cool, right? If you want to check it out, first go to drive.google.com and sign up for Google Drive. It’s free and you get 5 GB of storage to get started. Once your account is set up, you can add Pixlr Editor and Pixlr Express to Google Drive from the Chrome Web Store. If you already have the Chrome app installed, you’re all set. Just head straight to Google Drive and you’ll be able to open images from Google Drive right into Pixlr, then save your edited images back to Google Drive from Pixlr.

We’re always making changes to improve our experience. If there is something specific you’d like to see or be able to accomplish with Pixlr, let us know!

Absolutely fascinating. I am a Paint Shop Pro freak and love playing around with filters and plugins and I must say, this app is absolutely stunning. I does not load fully on Windows 7 however, but I can still work with it. I blogged about it this morning as well. Thanks for a stunning app! :)
