While creating content for the web, whether it is a blog post or a product for an e-commerce website, we're usually limited with the size of the images. PHP Image Editor is an open source resource (paid for commercial projects) which can easily be integrated with any CMS and enables users to edit images. It can resize, crop or rotate images and apply simple filters on them. The script can be implemented quickly, just show the path of the image to be edited and that's all. Or, if you're using Joomla, there is a module for that. Also, the interface is multilingual and there are already multiple languages waiting ready to be used.
Compatibility: All Major Browsers

Google Chrome Frame is already used by many popular websites including DeviantArt, github or HootSuite. It is definitely not a perfect solution as "a step from end users are required" but at least a step forward and almost doesn't add an extra effort for web designers/developers.The plugin requires 2 steps to work:

Once we build a web application, creating an API for it and enabling anyone to interact with the service easily is a great way to help the application grow. However, it can be a time-consuming process to build the API from scratch (if you want to build one, check: How To Create An API? -10 Tutorials-). And this is where FRAPI, an open source PHP API framework for building an API for any web application very quickly, comes in. The framework is RESTful, simple and only focuses on building the API. It generates the skeleton for you to handle REST calls and you only need to put your business logic in it. From a web-based interface, it enables you to create the methods, error codes and messages for your API. Once finished, the PHP files for the methods are created automaticallywhere you can easily add any extra functions. FRAPI also auto-generates the documentation for the API using the "description" fields of each function.

Do i need a website ?
If you're still wondering whether you need a Web site, consider this: A company without a URL is like a company without a business card. In today's fast growing business world of Internet communication, a successful company must have its presence on the Internet and view this incredible marketing tool as a 24 hour-a-day, 365 days-a-year advertising billboard for your company and your services - regardless of its size.
A small business owner may balk at the idea of spending several thousand dollars to create a presence on the web, however, this is a very sound investment which will reap its benefits in the years to come. It is also essential not to overlook how much money a small business will actually save by tapping this valuable marketing tool. A commercial web site will become an important adjunct to any company and, in some cases, it will be the main way in which your customers and others interact with you in the future.
How to do it ?
Typically, any organization interested in producing a promotional Web site needs to follow a number of steps to insure efficient production. Here are some major topics you may want to address in order to ensure your Web site's success.
DEFINE THE PURPOSE OF YOUR WEBSITE
IDENTIFY YOUR TARGET AUDIENCE
An e-commerce Web site will greatly differ from a Web site designed for a small, service-oriented business whose goal is to simply publicize the business on the Net. There's no need for expensive bells and whistles to create a simple site designed to spread the word about your business.
DECIDE WHO SHOULD DESIGN YOUR SITE
Consider all option, but beware of Do-it-yourselfers. Trying to create a Web site from scratch could drive you to the brink of insanity. Web design is a true skill, and unless you're savvy, you'll spend a lot of time with nothing to show. Most entrepreneurs are better off trying to find a reasonably-priced site designer.
DEFINE WHAT YOU CAN AFFORD TO SPEND
Construction costs can range from several hundred dollars for a do-it-yourself Web site to a couple of million dollars for the 'Cadillac' version.
DO SOME ONLINE RESEARCH
IDENTIFY SOME DESIGN CONCEPTS THAT EXPRESS YOUR IDENTITY
