Picture Colorizer

When you want to get a glimpse of the past, you can look at some old, black and white photographs.

If you want to go one step further, you can use a dedicated app like Picture Colorizer to add some colors to the images and get a feel of how the old days were really like.

The application comes with easy-to-understand icons that encourage even novices to breathe new life into their photos.

Since you cannot drag and drop the source image onto the main window, you can only manually browse to its location and load it within Picture Colorizer. The supported formats are JPEG, PNG, BMP, and GIF.

The actual colorization process is fully automated, there are no settings you can adjust so you need to wait patiently until the operation is completed.

At this point, you can choose one of the suggested variants - you can preview each of them by clicking each one, then settle on the one you like best.

Picture Colorizer supports several enhancements you can apply to improve the overall aspect of your image.

You can alter the exposure, saturation and hue values, while also sharpening the photo as you see fit. The gamma and denoise parameters can be tampered with as well.

The final step is to save the result to one of the supported formats (JPEG or PNG). You have the possibility to export the original file, the colorized version or the colorized one with the effects you applied.

Picture Colorizer is a nice, little tool that can change the appearance of your black and white photos. It does not require any advanced skills, so novices can easily take advantage of its feature-set as well.
