Aviary is a collaborative creative suite for artists of all genres. Available both on and offline, via Adobe’s Flex and Air technologies respectively, Aviary enables artists to create on the fly with an inventory of tools for every medium. From image editing to typography to music to 3D to video, artists can create and collaborate using our free, light, and powerful software.
Aviary consists of 16 rich web applications that work together to enable artists to create different forms of content, a social network for artists and a marketplace to sell artist content and services in.
Aviary automatically verifies the authenticity of each user’s work and can identify potential ownership issues while additionally tracking and maintaining the rights, royalties and attributions of all works across collaborations and revisions.
Aviary’s open API will enable developers to access its creative network

“Phoenix is like Photoshop without trying to replace it. You get a lot of the familiar features such as brushes, patterns, stamps, smudging, shapes, blending options, and more.
The Aviary team decided on a core feature set by polling their band of PhotoShop fanatics using Worth1000 to find Photoshop’s most frequently used features. The editor can work on an image of max dimensions of 2880 by 2880 pixels.
The editor does support importing and exporting images of familiar formats, but any Aviary work that includes an imported image not created in the suite will be marked as such in the marketplace. This will help alert buyers to the possibility that the creator doesn’t have full copyright over the work.”
