CLUSTER EDITOR-IMAGE-CROPPING · 20 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2023-02-24

Desktop image crop and edit tools

This cluster consists of desktop-focused image editors that emphasize cropping, resizing, rotating, and basic adjustments, often with local/offline processing. Six dated entries appear sporadically from March 2022 to June 2026, with no clear trend. All traction leaders (Cutaway, Photoflare, snipico2) show zero stars, indicating minimal user engagement.

ENTRY TIMELINE

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
