You've gathered your photos from you last vacation, but what can you do with them? Wouldn't you like to make your special memories even more special? Maybe you would like to add a festive frame or turn a photo into a greeting card. With AKVIS ArtSuite you can add style and elegance to any photo.

AKVIS ArtSuite not only offers edge effects for adding frames to your digital photos, but also is constantly enriched with new artistic effects as well. Thanks to the large number of effects and a rich Pattern Library, the software can generate an endless variety of effect versions.

And now in Version 7.0, the Pattern Library has become even more robust. 105 new patterns have been added to the Pattern Library. Most of these are fabric patterns. This take the variety of pattern combinations to a whole new level!

Available as a stand-alone product and a plug-in for Adobe Photoshop and other editors on Windows and Macintosh, AKVIS ArtSuite lets everyone decorate digital photos, create original postcards, personalized desktop wallpapers, etc.

The effects are grouped in two categories - Frames and Effect:

Frames (edge effects) can be used to create a photo frame for a digital photo. It can be a classic frame with wood carving or a light-hearted frame with some cheerful frogs along the border. The photo frame samples that come with ArtSuite can be easily tailored to any photo. Select a color for the frame; choose its form, its style, brightness, and the intensity of the applied edge effect.

It is possible to create a frame with ragged edges, a scratched surface, a page curl, ice crystals, etc. It can be a wooden frame with figured carving or a frame with an ornament. It is also possible to load user created patterns and textures to create a unique photo frame.

Use Artistic Effects to experiment with photos. Convert a photo into a B&W image and then add a shade of color to it. Replace colors in an image, add a texture (chosen from the built-in Texture Library or one created by the user) to make the image appear as if it has been drawn on a canvas, brick wall, corrugated paper, etc.

Version 7.0 adds support for files in the RAW format. It also includes an OS File dialog for loading and saving files.
