A great image editor that runs on Adobe AIR

Sumo Paint Air is a tool that lets you create and edit images on your PC. It runs on Adobe AIR, making it a lightweight addition to your desktop.

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 Air. It’s got lots of great editing tools to satisfy budding designers. Best of all, it’s free.

Image editing

With Sumo Paint Air you can create your own images or modify an existing picture and tweak it to perfection. Sumo Paint Air offers adjustments like color, saturation and hue edits 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 Air 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 Air 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 Air is a really useful program for graphic designers on a budget.
