There's a good reason not to buy Photoshop Touch, although it has nothing to do with how well the feature set has been implemented.
In fact, we enjoyed composing images with it and even exchanging files with its big brother using Adobe's new Creative Cloud. Touch includes Layers (which you can review in 3D) but it also brings the Healing Brush and Squiggle Selections to your...
If you've been holding your breath waiting for an app that does photo ebooks on the iPad, you can now exhale. 58 North has just released Pholium, with which you can create and publish your own photos in an ebook.
We gave it a try yesterday and had a ball. It's elegant interface makes it easy to use and gets out of the way so you can play with the images you place on the pages...
Having found the interface of its dreams for all of its plug-in technology with Snapseed, Nik Software wisely didn't stop there. They brought the interface to the desktop -- both OS X and Windows -- and for just $19.99 through iTunes, the App Store or from Nik Software.
Considering the plug-ins themselves run in the three figures, that represents quite a bargain. So we took it...
As if digital photography isn't perplexing enough, Harald Johnson has just released two versions of PhoozL IQ for iPad to complement the existing iPhone/iPod Touch versions. The larger screen is somewhat more embarrassing but the fun (and the education) makes up for it.
And we do have some fun with it. Although you couldn't tell from our scores. But then, we were writing the...
Over the years, we've praised Nik Software for its sharpening technology and its U Point technology while enjoying its library of preset effects for both color and black and white work. For Snapseed, which runs on iOS devices like the iPad, Nik Software seems to have tossed nearly all of that into the pot and stirred.
Along with a look at all the different filters Nik supplies...
We're responsible for three of the over a million downloads of Adobe's free Carousel software for OS X and iOS. And we figure that's about average because not only does the software run on all your devices but you don't want to be without it. Read our review to find out why we think it's the form fun will take in the future.
Datacolor has developed a free app for owners of its Spyder3 colorimeter. Unfortunately, it's a bit confusing to get going. But that's where we come in. We calibrate an iPad and show you what the difference is in our review of SpyderGallery.
Think Open CL programming doesn't make a difference? Think again. Optics Pro 7 takes advantage of using your GPU for non-graphics processing (you know, the stuff your CPU usually does) -- and it flies! There are also some nice workflow improvements to the latest version, available now. Read our review for the full story.
Arcsoft has just released Perfect365, a new portrait retouching application that runs on Windows and iOS. While offering some standard tricks of the trade like face reshaping, teeth whitening, eye brightening and blemish removal, it goes a bit further. Read our review to see just how much further.
We update our FilmPack review, trying out the latest enhancements -- and revealing one trick.
DxO has updated FilmPack to version 3.1 with several enticing enhancements:
