This neat little program is easy to use, and can be up and running in
minutes. It will take any BMP file and convert the picture into looking like different
types of art, Oil Painting, Water Color, Gouache, Pastels, and Color Pencil. You can also
scan any picture directly into the program. Nice change from just a copy of a photo to put
in your news letter, card or whatever.
The shareware version lets you convert thirty pictures, is not crippled in any way, but
does print the name of the program on your picture as a reminder that it is an
unregistered copy, even with this it does give you a good idea of what the registered
version would be like. Apparently version 2.4 will be coming out early next year.
This is a nice program for people who like to manipulate pictures, I have seen a few
programs that have this conversion from Photo to Oil Painting but this one seems to do it
much better and faster, of course like all graphic program lots of memory helps speed the
process. All and all an excellent program, give it a try.
