Photo to Color Sketch

The name of Photo to Color Sketch is a pretty suggestive one - this software allows you to transform images into colorful pictures.

The interface of this application is very plain and simple. Images can be opened by using the file browser only, since the "drag and drop" method is not supported. Batch processing is allowed.

You can either create a standard or professional colored sketch. The first option allows you to adjust the levels of color pencil and pen, oil painting, crayon, black and white pencil and pen, along with pen and ink.

The latter option allows you to enable artistic mode (realism, pop art or abstract) and sketch mode, as well as adjust effects regarding the crayon, exposure, blur, hue, saturation and lighting.

The simplistic program takes up a very low amount of system resources, has a very good response time and can be easily used by individuals of any level of experience. No errors have popped up during our tests and Photo to Color Sketch did not freeze or crash.

On the other hand, you cannot check out effects before applying them. That wouldn't normally be such a big deal, except for the fact that Photo to Color Sketch doesn't support the undo and redo functions. We suggest this tool with reservations.
