Aviary Flies the Coop
After a private beta that lasted for more than a year, three parts of the Web-based image-editing suite Aviary are about to be released into the wild.
On November 3, 2008, the following apps will no longer be in beta:
– Phoenix, a layer-based image editor
– Peacock, a visual laboratory for creating effects and visualizations
– Toucan, a color-palette coordinator
Two other online apps are in private alpha testing now:
– Raven, a vector editor
– Talon, a Firefox screen-capture extension
You can use the online apps for free (it’s called a “trial,” but there’s no expiration date), or buy one of two subscription plans that give you greater control.
The Green subscription plan costs $7.99/month or $79.90/year and gives you the following:
– Save up to 500 public and private creations
– No advertisements
– Customize or remove watermark for one of the applications
– Commercial or personal use
– Join unlimited Aviary groups. Create 1 private group and up to 3 public groups
– Access to premium tutorial content for one of the applications
The Blue subscription plan normally costs $14.99/month or $149.90/year and gives you the following:
– Save unlimited creations
– Early access to new alpha applications
– No advertisements
– Full control over watermark (customize or remove it)
– Commercial or personal use
– Create and join unlimited Aviary groups
– Unlimited access to all premium tutorial content
For a short time, the Blue plan is available for $99/year.
