 CD: Great Program! Use it for all sorts of stuff for my website.

Hint: You can download the French version zip file and extract it to the folder of your choice. Then, separately download the English (or any other) language file and extract it to the application directory. This will avoid the install/uninstall process. [2006-03-24 13:20]

 sandow: it is a light easy to use image editor.
i like it very much and have installed it on many pcs of my friends. [2006-06-25 21:56]

 anyone: very easy to use, and powerful/quick execute also! 5 star recommand! I can leave photoshop for some case! cheers. [2007-02-15 04:31]

 Meter: This is a very handy editor, especially when combined with some of the plugins. I used the French zip + language file install method and it seems to work fine. [2007-04-08 14:48]

 Local: Great for it's size.
It would be nice to have layers included but for free it's great.

The only bugbear I found with it is that I cannot see the brush size on the picture, that makes things VERY difficult when you need precision.

On the whole it makes me miss my photoshop.
If you have the the space I'd recommend GIMP but this comes a good second [2007-08-02 06:17]

 MrHope: This program has some nice selection, color, and filter/blur effect possibilities. Overall, a very useful tool for quick edits.

Some additional plugins didn't work when loaded, but perhaps
that was a problem with an earlier version of the program. [2007-10-14 12:13]

 It's GREAT: Been using this program for years. It totally ROCKS ! ! [2007-12-31 06:13]

 Webfork: Somewhere between Windows paint program and the free GIMP editor, this program lets you do the basics and then take them a step further. Great for doing quick, simple web graphics or photo touch ups. Additionally, very kind to system resources for older computers, using only 4 megs of RAM. [2008-01-19 23:24]

 Jim Barr: I've been using this for a while, and love it. So much so that I upgraded to the "studio" version, PhotoFiltre-Studio, which adds layers. Excellent app! [2008-03-18 06:26]

 Webfork: A great replacement for the very useful Microsoft Office 2000 Graphics Editor. Since new versions of office don't include this great software, PhotoFiltre works well in its place. [2008-07-06 18:07]

 Flavine: I downloaded the installer and installed on my PC. Then I copied the installed folder and tried to follow the instructions on "How to extract". I couldn't find any of the files or folders mentioned. How do I make this portable? [2008-10-13 17:44]

 Name: Flavine, download universal extractor and use that to extract the installer file. Then read the rest of "How to extract". [2008-11-02 09:01]

 deep: 6.4.0 writes settings to "C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\PhotoFiltre\PhotoFiltre.ini" [2009-12-20 17:03]

 CD: Confirmed. 6.4.0 writes to AppData. [2009-12-20 19:41]

 Lupo73: I have contacted the author to request the portable support.. I hope in this improvement.. [2009-12-21 19:59]

 Mark: @Webfork -- Search for "microphotoed.exe" and you are sure to find the good old Microsoft Photo/Image Editor. [2010-08-17 08:33]

If your virus scanner has detected a virus in the application, please email the author directly or post to the forum. Note that false positives (i.e. flagging a virus when there is actually none) are extremely common for virus scanners. When in doubt, try an online scanner like Online Malware Scanner or VirusTotal, which scans files using multiple anti-virus engines. It is very likely to be a false positive if only a few engines raise the red flag.
