Hey guys, back again with another Aviary tool that seems very promising. As you all will know by now, Aviary produces fantastic browser based applications which allow you to do pretty advanced image editing for free.

Recently they launched their newest tool called Talon. Talon is not as amazing as some of their other tools, but what it lacks in razzle-dazzle it makes up for with handy. Talon’s function is screen-capture markup, and it is very, very good at it. It allows you to take a screenshot of any webpage, and then write all over it, circle things on it, highlight it, draw stick figures, and then produce that for email or whatever you would like.

I thought this would be a valuable tool for this crowd because, the process of taking screenshots and produce them into usable jpg’s has come up on this blog several times, so I thought it would be a great accessible app. Also, it’s a great way to be precise when communicating with your design guy if you have someone who handles your webpage for you. Check out their handy firefox extension which takes Talon everywhere with you on the web.
