AKVIS LLC Releases Chameleon v. 2.2: Creativity unleashed

May 25, 2005 (Press Release) -- AKVIS Chameleon is an innovative image editing plug-in for Adobe Photoshop, Corel Photo-Paint, Jasc Paint Shop Pro and other digital imaging software that supports third-party plug-ins. It is an ideal tool for anyone who would like to create collages or otherwise experiment with digital images. The name of the program reveals its main feature - the plug-in allows inserting a copied object into a picture in such a way that it adapts to the new color range and blends with the background. Designers would especially appreciate this tool as it allows them to combine images with entirely different color ranges, to create the effect of drawing on a texture surface (crumpled paper, wood, etc), and all that with only a mouse-click. The plug-in is very easy to handle. You do not have to make precise selection of the copied object and think about how you can make the pasted object look natural in the new environment. Inserting images, changing texture, blending colors, and otherwise altering image is done automatically with a simple "point and click" technique. The software comes with no interface; Chameleon is found in the Effects list of your photo editor and applied accordingly. Examples of what an amateur user can do with Chameleon can be seen at http://akvis.com/en/chameleon/examples-image-combination.php. The plug-in is highly recommended for any individual interested in digital imaging, as it is so straightforward that any person with no prior knowledge can master it within a day. AKVIS Chameleon is compatible with Adobe Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, Jasc Paint Shop Pro and Ulead PhotoImpact. AKVIS Chameleon runs on Microsoft Windows 98/ME/2000/XP/NT and on the Mac OS X platform. New to Version 2.2 is compatibility with Adobe Photoshop CS and CS2 and new interface and help languages added (Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, 8 languages all in all). Free 10-days trial of the fully functional version is available at http://AKVIS.com/
