Adesign

Adesign is an easy-to-use graphical application designed for editing images, creating graphics from scratch, and retouching your favorite pictures.

It's wrapped in a neat and user-friendly layout, displaying movable panels, like drawing, layers and brush panes, along with the color palette. You can create and edit as many pictures as you want, as each item is opened in a separate tab. The supported photo formats are PSI, PNG, JPEG, TIFF, PCD, TGA and PPM. Plus, you can scan images into the app.

You have the option to make free selections using the lasso function, paint with unique colors using the brush or the pen, and clone different areas of the image. You can enter circles, lines and rectangles, customize their fill and border colors, insert text boxes anywhere on the photo, as well as make vertices.

If you want to create amazing drawings, you can use the radial, linear or diamond gradient. All the changes you made can be viewed in the history panel. If you're not happy with the modifications, the undo function comes in handy to go back to the previous design. Plus, you have the option to add as many layers as you need to get the desired result.

Last but not least, it's possible to enhance the pictures using several handy filters, such as blur (e.g. soften, Gaussian, radial), render, distort, texture, sharpen, and stylize. The items can be resized, cropped and rotated to best fit your tastes.

The bottom line is that Adesign is a reliable program that comes in handy when you want to make beautiful paintings, as well as edit and enhance existing images using drawing tools and filters.
