AKVIS ArtSuite

AKVIS ArtSuite is a software application whose purpose is to help you boost the quality of your images and personalize them with the aid of different frames and effects. It can be used as a standalone program or plugin to a photo editor (e.g. Adobe Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, Corel Paint Shop Pro).

The tool adopts a user-friendly layout that allows you to drag and drop images right in the main window and zoom in or out of the photos. A Before and After panel helps you easily observe the differences between the original and processed photo.

What’s more, the utility includes a Navigator window that embeds the dedicated parameters used for processing the images.

AKVIS ArtSuite allows you to import data from a wide range of files formats, such as PSD, CRW, RAW, DNG, KDC, PNG, BMP, JPG, and TIFF.

You may share the edited picture on various social networks (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, Google+) and print the photo or export it to JPG, PSB, PNG, BMP, PSD or TIFF file format.

The application comes with support for several preset effects and frames that you can quickly apply to your image. You may manually set up the editing parameters and save the configuration to a preset file so you may import it in your future projects.

AKVIS ArtSuite lets you work with different types of frames, such as Classic, Pattern, Strokes, Spray, Artistic, and Hand Painted. Depending on the type of frame that you want to use, the utility puts at your disposal a series of tweaking functions.

For example, if you opt for adding a classic frame to your image, you may choose between different models (e.g. Carpet, Brick, Animals, Nature, Holidays, Wooden), adjust the frame width and texture brightness, flip the texture vertically, and scale picture to frame.

Last but not least, you may add effects (e.g. Black and White, Shift Colors, Texture, Glamour) and manually adjust each effect according to your preferences.

All things considered, AKVIS ArtSuite comes with a decent feature pack for helping you personalize postcards, holiday albums, desktop wallpapers or other favorite images using frames and effects.
