PhotoFiltre is a complete image retouching program. It allows you to
do simple or advanced adjustments
to an image and apply a vast range of filters on it. It is simple and
intuitive to use, and has an easy
learning curve. The toolbar, giving you access to the standard filters
with just a few clicks, gives
PhotoFiltre a robust look.

Filters
Its wide range of filters allows novice users to familiarize themselves
with the world of graphics. You can
find the standard adjustment functions (Brightness, contrast, dyed,
saturation, gamma correction) and
also artistic filters (watercolor, pastels, Indian ink, pointillism,
puzzle effect).
There are more than 100 filters to be discovered !
Vectorial
selections
PhotoFiltre uses two types of vectorial selections. The first type uses
automatic shapes (rectangle,
ellipse, triangle, rhombus, rounded rectangle). The second type corresponds
to the lasso and polygon.
They both allow a customized form by drawing a shape by hand or using
a series of lines. Every
selection can be saved into a seperate file, to be used later on.
Tool
bar
The
toolbar is primarily made up of drawing tools, such as pipette, displacement
cursor, fill bucket,
aerosol, brush, drop of water (blur), cloning stamp, smudge (finger)
and magic wand.

PhotoFiltre has some standard brushes (round and square in different
sizes), but also some more varied
forms (oblique line, leave, star, etc...).
PhotoMasque
module
With PhotoMasque you can create advanced effects of contour and transparency
on your images by
using preset masks. These masks are grayscale images, where white is
the transparancy color, while
opacity increases as the shades of gray become darker. Black means complete
opacity. PhotoMasque
comes with several basic masks to inspire you to create your own masks.
Here are some possible results :
