Ever since the release of Photoshop 1.0 for the Mac in 1990, people have shelled out hundreds to Adobe for its high quality photo editing software. That is, until now. As of March 26, 2008, Adobe released the public beta of Photoshop Express: A free, Flash-based tool for uploading and editing photos. I joined the beta to bring you the good, the bad, and the buggy. You can find it here. Each account clocks in at about two gigabytes of storage, with many extra features. Photoshop Express is solid as a photo host. When you sign up, you are given a gallery, which anyone can view. Mine can be found here.
The editing was just as I expected: lacking. For your average computer user, there are plenty of options. However, for serious users, this cannot replace Creative Suite 3, or any previous versions. I’m not surprised, I didn’t think Photoshop would be free, but it felt strange not being able to draw on my picture and unable to insert a text box. Although this was a bit of a letdown, you should still remember you aren’t paying for it.
Bottom line, if you bought (or stole) Photoshop, you probably won’t be needing Px any time soon. Though, if you don’t have any decent image editing software, you might as well give Photoshop Express a try, it’s free, and it has all the tools Mom and Pop will ever need. It’s still the beta, and a lot can change. Adobe has said that they would like to add subscriptions for extra storage and features.
Who knows what we will see?

Could the lack of editorial tools have anything to do with the lack of $$$?

Yeah, I agree

From what I saw, is this not something along the lines of iPhoto editing wise. iPhoto does cropping, white balance, red eye etc.

It can do that; if you look at the picture for this post, you can see most of it’s pictures.
