PhotoPlus 8 in Depth...
Don’t be put off by the terminology, we have explained each of
these features in non-technical terms, enabling you to realise the
photo-editing power that you could have at your fingertips.
- Image Browser
Have you ever been searching for the perfect image to use in
your project, but never found just what you’re looking for? Well
PhotoPlus 8 allows you to preview images stored in folders by
generating thumbnails as you browse using the new Image Browser.
This is a great time saving device which eliminates having to
open and close numerous folders just to find the particular image
you need.
- Image Extraction
We’ve all had the situation when we think we’ve taken the perfect
family photo, only to find there’s an unsightly object in the
background. This scenario is no problem for PhotoPlus 8’s Image
Extraction Tool. All you need to do, is select the particular
part of the image you want to remove and let this great little
tool do the rest!
- Background and Flood Eraser
Now you’ve extracted the unsightly object, but how would you
like your photo to appear as though you were on a Caribbean beach.
No problem for PhotoPlus 8’s Background Eraser. The Background
Eraser will erase the colours which you choose to select from
the background without erasing the main focus of the photo.
- Layers
Working with Layers is fundamental to photo-editing. PhotoPlus
8 benefits from a number of improvements which will help you keep
on top of things. The improved Layer Manager comes complete with
thumbnail previews and the built-in Autoselect for rapid navigation
in multi-layered images will certainly save you time.
- Instant Artist
Have you ever fancied trying your hand at painting? Well with
PhotoPlus 8’s Instant Artist Painting Effects, you can apply a
whole host of interesting painting styles to your photo. Have
a go at transforming your scenery photo’s into Van Gogh masterpieces!
- Smart Resize
Another smart addition to PhotoPlus 8 is the handy Smart Resize
feature. It allows you make your images bigger without compromising
on quality. No longer will your enlargements appear blurred with
this new improvement in PhotoPlus 8.
- Masking
We’ve all used masking tape at some point in our DIY attempts,
well now PhotoPlus 8 has improved this great feature. Much more
powerful, the PhotoPlus 8 Masking Tool allows you to make selected
parts of your image as transparent - hence making them invisible.
If there’s a particular part of you image that you don’t want
to alter, apply this tool and leave it untouched.
- Picture Paint Brush
The new Picture Brush Tool within PhotoPlus 8 is a great new
feature. It works like a custom brush that sprays a series of
predefined images, at regular intervals as you drag. This is particularly
useful to create themed documents within PhotoPlus 8.
- Instant Effects
Within PhotoPlus 8, the possibilities for improving the appearance
of your photo’s are endless once you get to grips with the Instant
Effects Gallery. The gallery is packed full of different effects
to add character to your photos. Simply click on the effect you’d
like to try and see the effects - instantly!
- Additional Import Options
Within PhotoPlus 8 we have much improved the import options and
you can now import images from a much wider range of sources and
formats - including new Paint Shop Pro support.
- 3D Effects
Do you find that a few of your photo’s are looking a little flat?
Do you need something to bring them to life? Look no further -
with PhotoPlus 8 you can add astounding 3D Lighting and Surface
Effects. So if you want a particular feature to stand out - play
around with the many effects possible within PhotoPlus 8.
If you’re impressed with these features we’re sure you’ll appreciate
the many other improvements that have been made to make PhotoPlus
8 the essential tool for digital image-editing, for example improved
photo correction to remove red-eye and enhanced export optimizer
to reduce the size but not the looks of your images.

NB: PhotoPlus 8 will work with Windows Vista providing the following actions are taken into account. Serif recommends that
customers upgrade to a Vista compatible version.
1.) Must run as an administrator.
2.) Download the winhelp engine from Microsoft in order to be able to view help files.
PhotoPlus may suffer slow performance under Windows Vista and customers are advised to purchase the upgrade to resolve. |
