Fauxto – A Badass Photoshop Clone Written in Flex

Posted on by

Kendall Whitehouse just showed me Fauxto, a really, really kick ass Flex application that has quite a bit of Photoshop-like functionality. I don’t know anything about the team, but I think the app is really slick. They have a blog up, so I’m hoping I can get them to talk with me, but I wanted to make sure it got some attention. It’s well worth checking out!

Update: Mike Potter has a lot more information as well as links to the Digg thread and the Lifehacker link.

    That is nice, Some thoughts if you have an opportunity to talk with them. Do you think they will add support to save the image locally or continue to offer as a remote service? I saw that elements were automatically added to layers and could be added, edited or deleted from the panels. I had to use the transform tool to move elements around, do you think they will add a select tool?

    Hey Doug, I got a hold of them (or rather they got in touch with me) so I’ll make sure to ask them that!

    In my blog, I write about uninstalling ALL applications from my desktop and only run online tools. I just did a post with a screencast of Fauxto on my blog.

    When I heard the news about Adobe’s plan to create an online version of Photoshop, I knew I had read somewhere about a similar RIA created in Flex 2 that first made people aware of the possibility.
