This Chameleon Stands Out Among Photo Editing Plug Ins

AKVIS Chameleon is a photo editor plug-in which makes the insertion of new objects or the replacement of undesirable artifacts in digital photos seamless. Beautiful results can be achieved even for users with very little experience with photo editing software, since this tool does not require precise selection of objects. Once an object is copied and inserted into another picture, AKVIS Chameleon adjusts the object to the new background, adapting to the new color range and blending with the environment.

Two modes of collage creation are available, Standard and Snapshot. With just the press of a button in Standard Mode, AKVIS Chameleon automatically adjusts an inserted object to the target color range and smooths the object’s borders. The Snapshot mode adds dimension to a collage, layering the blended components so that the texture and relief of the primary image can be seen through. New to Version 1.2 is CMYK Color Mode for four-color printing capability.

Now, Macintosh users can expand their photographic creativity without the time-consuming aspects of other cloning tools. AKVIS Chameleon is compatible with Adobe Photoshop and Photoshop Elements, Jasc Paint Shop Pro and Ulead PhotoImpact. AKVIS Chameleon V.1.2 for Windows™ runs on Microsoft Windows™ 98/ME/2000/XP/NT and the Macintosh version runs on the Mac OS X platform.
