a couple of months back i ran across a web based image processing tool like Photoshop i posted about it here. Today i am here to let you know that that small be it cool website has been outdone a thousand fold and this pro tool set in my opinion is going to change the way we work on the fly and on machines that are not really ours the Aviary Tool set is a free web based app suite that contains 7 apps : image , color , effect , vector , screen cap , image mocap and sound. These 7 free web apps encompass what i believe all the needs of a visual artist of many talents.

I am going to break down every App and tell you what i like about it and such and hope as always this information will be useful in your daily work flow.

Effect Editor – Peacock

I am starting with this App first because I am so amazed with what Peacock is. Peacock is a Node Based Effects Editor for the common man, AND IT IS FREE. A while back the great flocks at dvGarage brought the power of node based image editing to Photoshop in the form of a plug-in called conduit, today The great people of Aviary gave us Peacock.

Image Editor – Phoenix

Phoenix is basically a online version of Photoshop nothing much to tell all the standard futures all thou one thing in particular  my attention and that was the fact that you could make a peacock layer in phoenix kind of like dynamic link layers in after effect and Photoshop orPremier

Audio Editor – Myna

Myna is my second Favorite after Peacock its a fully functional audio editor. You can record tracks right into the web app you can save sessions and even export wave mixdowns. The interface reminds me of audacity a bit but it has functional short cut keys and space bar is play and stop like mostly common in this type of app

There is a lot more that the Aviary Tool set can offer you They have a Color suite similar to Adobe kuler and a Vector App and a simple version of there image app. Go and Check them out you wont regret it
