Instagram and Lightroom are great and all, but sometimes people need to get extra creative with their image editing. Like, Photoshop creative.

There was a time when there was no other way than to edit photos on a computer, even after the arrival of the first few waves of tablets and phones.

Recent hardware and software innovations have made it so that editing photos - particularly on an iPad - is not only doable, but easy and effective.

Check out this list of seven great photo editors for your iPad.

Pixelmator has gotten a big update recently that, along with a few other things, has made the app universal. Now iPhone users can enjoy editing their images with Pixelmator for the first time.

Pixelmator for iPad is a layer-based image editor that lets you create, edit, and enhance your images and allows you to work between your Mac or Adobe Photoshop and iPad without any hassle.

Recently, the Pixelmator team released an update that adds the repair tool, updated the brush previews and brush parameters, and improved localizations. The new repair tool lets you quickly  remove anything from an image.

You can download the improved Pixelmator for $4.99 on the App Store.

Today’s Apple event talked about a lot of stuff we already knew and showcased their desperate need to hire some comedy writers, but eventually they got around to talking about the new iPads and their software (once they were done faffing about with Stephen Colbert, that is).

Two pieces of software singled out for the spotlight: a new iOS version of the OS X photo editor Pixelmator, and updates to the Replay Video Editor app.

Pixelmator (otherwise known as 'Photoshop For Broke Folks') was shown off with a live demo where the team crafted a logo screen in real-time. A herd of oryx were erased from a sea of rippling sand dunes quickly and with relative ease, leaving the shape and texture of the desert behind them intact. Showing off the muscle of the iPad Air 2’s beefy new A8 processor, everything went quickly and smoothly as they repositioned image elements and blended the text logo with the background using Pixelmator’s suite of tools.

Next up was Replay from Stupeflix. Replay, which is already available, allows for the creation of movies from video clips and photos on your device, but the developers showed off just how well it and its new updates will run on Apple’s upcoming hardware. Movies rendered with seemingly no lag time at all - supposedly 4 times faster on the A8 chip versus the old A7. And thanks to Metal, the whole affair runs 20 times faster versus relying on the CPU alone. Some neat volumetric lighting work was shown, where lighting interacted with the text titles, including real-time color changing on the fly.

Pixelmator is making its App Store debut later this month. Replay is already available for free, but
the new updates they showcased will be coming by the end of October as well.
