The goal of this bundle is to give you everything that you need in one package to handle all of your photographic editing and enhancing needs.
Topaz Simplify 3
Topaz Simplify is a plug-in that transforms regular photos into works of art. It can change them into watercolors, line art and photorealistic paintings. Through a unique size-based technology, it processes the photo like an artist would. It eliminates the clutter and leaves only the essence of the image.
The goal of the technology within Topaz Simplify is to provide unlimited artistic possibilities for photographers. It doesn’t just provide cookie cutter effects, but rather gives you the tools to create your own personal and unique photographic masterpieces.
Topaz Simplify uses a proprietary image process engine based on multi-level topological decomposition wherein it suppresses and recovers detail base on a specific range of sizes determined by the user. Simply put, this plug-in simplifies the details of an image much the same way a painter would – by eliminating the non-essential items from the photo. It breaks down the image into a base image and the edges of the objects in the image and allows you to control both aspects independently.
What is new in Topaz Simplify 3
• New, more user friendly interface that allows you to expand and collapse the preset panel and the tool panel for a more adjustable workspace. This gives you more control over your workflow
• Presets and tool tips can each be enabled or disabled so that when you start up the plug-in you can control how Simplify opens up.
• With the new Snap and Recall buttons, you can save up to 99 snapshots for comparison
