Adding Pixenate to your website allows your users to edit those photos too.

Pixenate helps non-experts get the most out of their photos by providing powerful but simple-to-use photo-editing tools.
Pixenate is mainly well suited for photo-merchandising websites and offers powerful tools for cropping and overlaying photos on to product templates such as cards, calendars and mugs.
撮影した写真をPCでアップロードすると、暗くなってしまった経験がある。光の当たり具合の確認を怠った自分を責める代わりに、写真を編集すれば、ほら、問題解決！
私なら、イメージ・エディタでガンマ補正機能を使用する。ほとんどのイメージ・エディタでは、「イメージ」や「カラー」といったメニューにこの機能がある。
このツールは明るい部分を保ちながら暗い部分を明るくする。 しかし特定の設定はない。最初にこのツールを使用して、写真の適切な明るさを制御する方法を学習することをお勧めする。
It has happened before that some of the photos that I have taken turn up dark when I upload them in my computer. Instead of cursing myself for being too lazy to see to the lighting, I simply edit said photos and voila! Problem solved!
What I do is use the gamma control in my image editor. Most image editors have this feature in their Image or Color menus. This tool actually retains the already bright parts of the image while it brightens the dark ones. There is no prescribed setting. I suggest that you experiment with this tool first to learn how to control the right brightness for your photos.
