AKVIS Coloriage has been updated to v.7.0. AKVIS Coloriage colorizes black and white photos and replaces color in color photos. Just choose the desired colors with a brush stroke; the program recognizes the object's border itself and tailors the new color to the grayscale tones of image. Read about the program here.

New to version 7.0:

  • Changed the interface design: new program skin and new application icon. See new screenshots.
  • Added new mode for the Pencil tool - Multicolor mode, and the Multicolor palette to the Settings Panel to manage this mode. In this mode it is possible to draw several colors at once. It is helpful for complex patterns and objects with clear boundaries, where many areas would have to be marked by the pencil, such as tree branches against a sky, a bush with many flowers, or the buttons on a shirt. Read the Tutorial.
    These new features are available for advanced licenses (Deluxe, Business).
  • Improved compatibility with Windows 7 and Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6)
  • Added support for 64 bit to the plugin version (compatibility with Adobe Photoshop CS4 64 bit).
  • The plugin is now compatible with Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.
  • A new installation program on Windows.
    To avoid problems Win-users must remove previous versions before installing this one.
  • Impoved the Print dialog box (added the possibility to select a printer and its resolution).
  • Updated the program documentation.

Test the software for 10 days free of charge.
