Ending support for these will help us focus on building new products and improving existing apps that are used by millions of people. It\u2019s our sincere hope that anyone who uses these services will be able to easily find replacements. We\u2019ll do our best to point you to similar, free alternatives.<br \/>\nThe imm.io image sharer was designed to be a simple (and completely optional) way to host images over a short period of time or to share them with friends. It wasn\u2019t designed to be a comprehensive image hosting service, and there are no user accounts for imm.io, so we don\u2019t anticipate many people will be adversely affected by its sunset.\u00a0We\u2019re removing the few instances inside Pixlr apps that encouraged users to save images to imm.io. Most notably, Pixlr Editor for the web had this option.<br \/>\nLooking for another service like imm.io? Check out\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/imgur.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Imgur<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/tinypic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">TinyPic<\/a>, two similar image sharing services. Both are great free options.<br \/>\nPixlr Grabber is\/was an add-on\/extension for Firefox and Chrome that allows people to grab images on websites or take screenshots of browser windows and edit them within Pixlr apps. The Chrome app is currently no longer available in the Chrome Web Store, and we will be removing the Firefox version from the Firefox Add-ons gallery in the coming days. If you currently have either one of these installed, it will continue to work after this date. However, be aware that at some point in the future both versions will inevitably stop working. If you are a Firefox user, you are welcome to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/addons.mozilla.org\/en-US\/firefox\/addon\/pixlr-grabber\/\" target=\"_blank\">install it now<\/a>\u00a0if you want to ride it into the sunset.<br \/>\nThere are numerous apps out there that allow you to take quick screenshots and edit them on the fly. Two free ones that stand out are\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/evernote.com\/skitch\/\" target=\"_blank\">Skitch<\/a>\u00a0for Mac and\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.techsmith.com\/jing.html\" target=\"_blank\">Jing<\/a>\u00a0for PC\/Mac.<br \/>\nIs this a sad day for Pixlr? Most certainly not.\u00a0We celebrate both of these services. They filled niches our users needed at times in the past. As web browsers and cloud-sharing services have evolved, their usefulness and necessity have dimmed for most of our users, but we\u2019ll always be proud to have had them in our stable of apps. Farewell, imm.io and Grabber. We\u2019ll sing songs of glory about you long after you\u2019re gone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week, we begin ending support for two Pixlr products: imm.io and Pixlr Grabber.
