Generally, if it's an "adjustment" which changes the color of the pixels, it's allowed. Examples are Levels, Curves, Hue/Saturation, Channel Mixer.
Anything which involves "moving" pixels around -- filters or painting/drawing/selection tools -- is not allowed (except a few listed filters -- see below).
Cropping, rotating, sharpening and blurring are allowed, as long as they are applied to the whole image (no selections). You are allowed to add a border, by applying a stroke or enlarging the canvas, but not using a "clip art" frame or frame-creation plug-in. Do not add type when editing.
