• Resizable Image Layer – gives you the ability to resize and reposition the image layer letting you make your scene fit into a frame without losing any of your image. It also makes it easy to get the perfect size image inside a matted frame.

• New Rulers and Guides – will help you control the size and placement of your image accurately. You can measure from the center out, or from the outside in. It is a full-featured ruler so that you can make sure that your alignment is accurate.

• Improved Color Picker – gives you a larger array of colors to pick from including a grayscale gradient. You can also access Photoshop's color picker, as well giving you access to Pantone color libraries and Web colors.

• Batch Processing – now lets you process a whole folder of images. You can add frames, change sizes, type, and color space. You can even create two files at the exact same time, one for print and one for the Web.

• Random Frames – has been improved as well. It will now use random blending modes when applying random frames. There is even an option to keep random frames monochromatic.

• Look and Feel – has been updated as well. It features a dark, understated look that has been becoming more common in the digital imaging world. It puts the image at the center of attention. The controls have been placed much more logically as well.

• Video Tutorials – are built in to help you get up to speed fast. With a dozen available, you'll find the right one to make the most of PhotoFrame 4.

• Lightroom and Aperture Integration (Professional Edition) – will let you use your favorite frames right inside of Adobe Photoshop or Apple Aperture. You can even open one image to adjust the frame settings and then apply it to all of the images in the selection.
