Picozu is a drawing and photo retouching application built on Javascript, HTML 5 and CSS3. Make sure you use a modern browser (Firefox 3.6, Safari 5, Chrome, Opera 10, Internet Explorer 9) if you want to play with it.

The aim of the application is to make it as much Adobe Photoshop-clone as possible, while keeping in mind that it is a web application, and your browser is not supposed to memory-hog your computer. It should support brushes, filters, dynamic windows, HSL, CYMK, layers, actions history, batch processing, primitives, curves (quadratic and bezier), complex polygons, texture rendering, cropping and many more. Also, should not rely on any Flash code and can be used from any mobile device with a (multi?)touch interface.
