+# Image-ica : The Photo Editor
+⭐️ Star us on GitHub — it helps!
+
+## Why a new photo editor?
+There are many factors which guided us to reach a unanimous decision of building a photo editor software from the scratch. The few of the reasons are listed as follows.
+
+ - Many photo editors available online and required internet connection for whole period.
+ - Many features are for the licensed version only and support only basic operation in free version.
+ - Not a single software provides all these operations.
+## What's new in this ?
+The basic features which are included in **Image-ica** are :
+
+1. Zooming
+2. Rotation
+3. Flipping
+4. Gray-Scaling
+5. Image Viewer
+
+Building architecture independent software was one of the topic priority of the project. 
+
+The advance features are also mentioned below :
+1. 1- Click Encryption and Decryption
+2. Color Pop
+3. Fast and Powerful Filters (Sepia,Negative,Black & White)
+4. Histogram ( R, G & B)
+
