AKVIS LightShop 2.5 Plug-in. Impressive Light Effects
(Clara Harold, Tucson Computer Society, 2/2009)
I downloaded the program in my new laptop with Vista. It loaded quickly
without any problems. It operates as a stand-alone utility or it can be used
as a plug-in in to Photoshop CS3 or Photoshop Elements 6.
I used it both as a stand-alone and in Elements 6. The plug-in version is
also compatible with Corel Painter, Coral Photo-Paint, Paint Shop Pro Photo
and Ulead Photo Impact.
This is a great program for the young at heart, as you can add glitter and
glitz to any photo. Just let your imagination soar and the program has the
right tool to do it with. Add stars, rainbows, raindrops, light rays from a
light source, fireworks, planets and even alien signs in the sky. There are so
many possibilities with this program...
Software Review: AKVIS LightShop v.2
(Computer Users of Erie, Tanya Mattson, 07/2008)
When I looked t the AKVIS site, I immediately was intrigued by the Lightshop plug-in. There are many ways to create lighting effects, but this program gives you a fast and fun way to do it. <...>
I like Lightshop for the flashy effects it can add to your work. You need to be care-
ful, though, to keep the effects you add subtle, so as not to make things appear TOO fake. Less is a lot of times more when dealing with enhancements to photos.
AKVIS LightShop 2.0
(Bonnie Olendorf, PASCO AREA COMPUTER USER GROUP (PACUG), 2/2008)
LightShop is another AKVIS program. It lets you add light effects to your photos or just sharpen and brighten them up. You can use it as a stand alone program on your desktop or use it with your photo enhancing programs. I used the stand alone and also used it with my Adobe 6.0...

AKVIS LightShop 1.2
(Simon Baillie, SharewareJunkies.com, 09/2007)
Akvis Lightshop is a brilliant plugin (Plugin for Adobe Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, Corel (Jasc) Paint Shop Pro, Ulead Photo Impact, etc.) that enables you to enhance photos with amazing high quality lighting effects. You can create lightning in a stormy sky, a colorful rainbow over a city, a reflection on a raindrop, the glow on smoldering wood in a fire-place, alien signs blazing in the night sky, flares on the sun, the lights of distant planets, fireworks or whatever the limit of your imagination is.
