F-Spot Photo Manager

The F-Spot photo manager, available from the Applications Graphics menu, is a handy editor designed for touching up your photographs (see Figure 14-9).

With F-Stop, you can crop images to size, reduce or remove the red from people’s eyes, modify the color balance and saturation of an image, and a whole lot more. Select these features by clicking buttons in the lefthand pane, and then use them in the righthand main pane.

The top toolbar lets you import photos, rotate them left or right, browse multiple images, view photos full screen, and display them in a slide show. At the bottom left, you can get details such as an image’s histogram, the date a photo was taken, its size, and the exposure setting used. The slider at the bottom right lets you easily zoom in and out of a picture you are working on.

For more details on using the program, click the Help menu to bring up a comprehensive manual.
