To: os2ann.DISCUSS@bloom-picayune.MIT.EDU Date: 7 Dec 1996 18:58:19 GMT From: esther@primenet.com (Esther Schindler) Reply-To: esther@primenet.com (Esther Schindler) Reply-to: esther@primenet.com (Esther Schindler) --------------------------------------------------------------------- If you would like to be an artist -- or just play one on TV -- you'll definitely enjoy the December general meeting of the Phoenix OS/2 Society. On Tuesday, December 10, Terry Hamilton will show us TrueSpectra's new product, Photo>Graphics. TrueSpectra Photo>Graphics lets you easily create, enhance, and combine an unlimited number of digital images, text, and draw objects using editing and special effects tools. You can change the color of objects; place text on photographs; duplicate or crop images; enhance contrast and brightness; or zoom in to highlight the most minute detail on a photograph, collage, business presentation, or advertising flyer. Without a doubt, you'll say "Oooooh!" several times during the course of the evening. Photo>Graphics features Use the Power Panel to select your desired effects and then simply drag and drop to apply. Effects can be added, edited, and removed with a simple click of the mouse. Photo>Graphics supports most common image formats, including JPEG and interlaced GIF (used mostly on the Internet). You can work with images and effects at different resolutions all at the same time. Photo>Graphics' advanced .GDO file format makes efficient use of computer memory and disk storage resources. Photo>Graphics includes a full range of regions and tools which are easily combined to form powerful objects. When layered, these objects interact to produce millions of possible effects, textures, and warps -- no matter how complex! Plus, you can save your new effects for later use. You can choose from a robust set of drawing tools and combine them with special effects to create fantastic, resolution-independent clip art. You get freehand, line, and paint roller support; all with adjustable line width, softness, stroke, fill, cap style, and join style for complete flexibility and creative freedom. Effects may also be applied to text to create dazzling results with ease. Make your text float, add 3D effects, skew, warp, rotate, or mirror for truly professional results. Create graphics for enhancing business presentations, publishing on the Internet, or for family entertainment. Photo>Graphics outperforms all traditional pixel editors and draw packages. Even complex projects are easy and fun! Face rings a bell Terry Hamilton's name might sound familiar; until recently, he was a contractor to IBM, supporting Team OS/2 activities. Perhaps he'll share some of his viewpoints about IBM's support of Team OS/2 and grass roots activities... especially when we get him to relax at Coyote Springs after the official meeting. When & where The general meeting starts at 7:00PM, but a Q&A session gets underway at 6:30PM. If you want to ask other OS/2 users for advice about motherboards, hints to win at the latest OS/2 games, or nearly anything else, come early to hear what other users have to say. The meeting is held at the Mountain Preserve Reception Center at 1431 East Dunlap, Phoenix. ===================================================================== -- To submit to c.o.os2.announce: POST (or email os2_ann_req@bix.com) -- For comments to the moderator: email lfirrantello@bix.com. - for posting guidelines see: http://www.bix.com/pub/os2ann/pindex.htm
