Dream Photo Editor

CNET Editors' review

by: CNET staff on August 28, 2009

Wonder Photo Studio provides users with a simple way to make fun photo collections. By providing lots of options and possessing a fantastic design, users of all skill levels will flock to this program.

The program's interface was a pleasure to operate, thanks to a well-planned design that newcomers and computer experts will enjoy. Its command icons are clear and on-screen directions practically eliminate the need for consulting the Help file. Users must first select a collage template. Though there are dozens of love- and fun-themed templates, but the trial only allows access to three. From there, users navigate the onscreen file tree to bring up their photos and can drag and drop them into the template openings. Once photos have been selected, users can customize the collage even further by accessing the commands along the top of the screen. Here you will find simple one-click tools for masks, frames, cropping, transparency and shadow. Additionally, there are tools for adding clip art and text above this. Thanks to its ease and amount of choices, this program was simple, effective, and fun. The program's most interesting feature is the ability to build your own collage without a template. While this gives you more freedom, it is impossible to match the themes and slickness of the templates.

While its choice of templates is limited during the trial (and it leaves a watermark on the image), those available will show users that this program offers a fun and easy way to spice up their photo collections.
