Why are we creating Picmeleo?

Welcome to the Picmeleo Blog's first post! In this post I'm going to write about the motivation behind Picmeleo project.

We've started this project to fullfill our own needs. We've been designing and developing hundreds of different kind of web services. Case after case we are heading the same problem: publishing images for the web is difficult. With for example content management systems or web shop platforms - open or closed source - the problem exists.

There are numerous good and advanced WYSIWYG tools for text editing, like CKEditor or TinyMCE. But something similar for images? No.

There is something wrong in this setup!

We wanted to offer browser based image editing tool for our clients. We wanted that our clients can edit their images for the web without buying an expensive desktop app. We wanted that image editing is smooth and easy and the image editor is easy to integrate into various environments.

After exhaustive search we found nothing for our needs. So there was no option - we have to make it by ourselves.
