 The Plugin Site Released Version 2.0c of ColorWasher for MacOS X
October 25, 2005 - The Plugin Site (www.thepluginsite.com) is pleased to announce Version 2.0c of ColorWasher for MacOS X, a plugin for correcting the colors, contrast, exposure and saturation of 8bit and 16bit photos. It works with various graphics applications, e.g. Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, Illustrator, Fireworks, Painter, Canvas, Photoline and GraphicConverter. ColorWasher takes photo correction to a new level of accuracy and speed. With its help even beginners are capable of doing photo corrections within seconds that only experts were able to produce in the past.
New in Version 2.0c
Since the initial release ColorWasher was made compatible with various non-Adobe applications. ColorWasher 2.0c can now be used in Fireworks, Painter, Canvas, Photoline, GraphicConverter and probably other applications that support Photoshop plugins. Several bugs that caused problems in Photoshop CS2 were fixed. Additionally some bugs that occurred when applying ColorWasher to 16bit images were removed. For example the transparency grid is now correctly displayed for 16bit images in ColorWasher and the color picker lets you sample colors from 16bit images now.
Overview
ColorWasher features a wide range of automatic, semi-automatic and manual tools for correcting, enhancing and restoring photos. It is very easy to use as it offers interactive explanations and hints for each feature, incorporates an Easy Mode and detailed step-by-step instructions in the manual. ColorWasher lets you do professional photo corrections within seconds and also offers a Cloak mode for processing dozens of images very quickly.
ColorWasher can be used on digital photos as well as scanned photos. It even achieves great results on old and faded photos. But you can also use ColorWasher to enhance web graphics, drawings, cartoons, paintings or screen shots. Moreover, if you want to create artistic and stylish color or b/w effects, ColorWasher lets you correct photos and apply impressive color effects in one step.
Revolutionary Algorithms
ColorWasher's revolutionary algorithms help you to turn even the worst photo into a delightful visual experience. Unlike other tools ColorWasher contains seven sophisticated methods called Cast Types for reconstructing lost colors and details in photos. ColorWasher's exposure correction features are superior to simple brightness and gamma correction methods used in known graphics applications and plugins. It also features built-in mechanisms for hiding image noise, camouflaging overexposed areas, boosting contrast, keeping saturation constant and fixing chopped histograms.
