If it's image editing software your lacking grab GIMP. Open Source free use software and it's not relying on your Internet connection to be connected or fast as it installs on your hard drive.. only one long wait then :-p Much better arrangement if you have dial-up as your not sending a huge image up your tiny upstream bandwidth (almost impossible for the truly impatient or frequently disconnected) and then waiting to get it back. Plus what happens if the server for the online tool gets overloaded or goes off line?
Plus GIMP works for all of us as it's cross platform ;-) Windows/Mac/Linux-BSD-Unix-Solaris
Now I think where the online tools really shine is for times when you can't install software like a borrowed or public computer!
