I don't remember seeing this before, but Shutterstock has a new feature allowing a buyer to pick certain pre-set sizes (Facebook header, Pinterest, Instagram, etc.) and Filters - named after cities but a small-ish simple-ish set of tonal variations.

Underneath the small/medium/large radio buttons is a new one "Custom Size" and selecting that enables an Edit Image button (versus Download).

I think after you pick a set of choices you get both the edited version and the original when you download.

Possibly this might help buyers who need something quick for a Twitter post or email header (two of the choices). It's marked as Beta so I guess they're trying it out - nice to see improvements for buyers (I'm assuming they must have had feedback suggesting this would be appreciated).

Allowing basic processing before downloading the photo looks like a small response to Adobe.
Short of Photoshop, SS makes a little step in the right direction!
Competition means progress! Great!

I cannot see this, but it sounds like a very useful feature.

Maybe a precursor to their own mobile stock collection?

i am sure it will compete with the power of cs6 ...

This week I noticed that 123rf has added a similar editor to allow cropping and scaling an image to be licensed. It's marked as Beta, but I guess this indicates having such a feature is now expected as a customer convenience.
