Photo Frame Maker is a small application that can help you create simple frames for your pictures.
The interface of the program is easy to navigate through. You can use the sample pictures or open a new image via the file browser (the "drag and drop" function is not supported).
Simply click one of the 24 available frames, in order to apply them to your photograph. Plus, you can filter them by “Texture”, “Color” or "Cool".
In addition, you can flip an image horizontally, rotate it at 90 degrees to the left or right, add text (set font style, color, size, background color, enable bold or italic), crop or resize it (with the possibility of constraining proportions).
Furthermore, you can adjust the level of brightness, contrast and hue, switch to batch mode (edit, delete, rename, batch save), as well as save and print a file.
The application uses a low-to-moderate amount of system resources, includes a full user documentation with snapshots and is very simple to work with.
On the other hand, we were not able to open any images from our hard drive (an error popped up saying "List index out of bounds"), so we could only test Photo Frame Maker on the provided sample images (maybe the tool is not very compatible with Windows 7).
Also, Photo Frame Maker should be used for recreational purposes at best. The frames found here (which are a few compared to what we expected) are quite unprofessional.
The bottom line is that Photo Frame Maker could present a fun way to build frames for digital photographs. But it needs to work on its functionality and features first.
