Face-OP

Face-OP is a photo distortion application with support for BMP, DIB, GIF, IFF, JIF, JPG, LBM, PCX, RLE, TGA, TIF and PNG file types. It has a built-in file explorer and several types of face operations, such as growing, shrinking, smear, and lugging.

The installation procedure is fast and shouldn't give you any trouble. As far as the interface is concerned, the software tool adopts a standard window split into three panes, where you can open pictures, perform the photo distortion, as well as save and print the image.

The built-in file navigator lists all pictures from any selected drive or directory, and you can filter them by format. After picking a photo, you can preview it and find out its width and height, along with the number of colors.

The image is loaded with its actual size. You can select an instrument from the menu when it comes to growing, shrinking, smear and lugging, as well as use the mouse to click and draw on the photo sections you want to distort.

It's possible to adjust the strength and radius of the brush, zoom in and out of the full image, restrict the effect to the horizontal or vertical axis, and use a rubber to fix mistakes. There are no options implemented for undoing and redoing actions. If you're pleased with your work, you can save the picture to file or print it.

It didn't put a strain on the overall performance of the computer in our tests, running on low CPU and RAM. No error messages were shown and the program didn't hang or crash.

On the other hand, the effects of Face-OP are outdated. Unfortunately, the tool hasn't received updated for a long time.
