To practice photo editing in Pixlr, you will need pictures to work with. You may find those pictures online or in Pixlr Stock Image Library. Make sure they are good quality - which means, they need to be not less than 1000x1000 pixels.
For the next lesson, you’ll need three images (see examples):
Portrait of a person
An animal
An object
Save those images to your computer (it’s best to create a new folder for your photo editing projects). If you are using a Pixlr Stock Image Library, you can use the image directly from there.
