CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Ease of use is Photolightning's priority, and the program makes good on the promise. The interface guides you step-by-step through the most common photo-editing and organizing tasks. Start with modifications, such as color correction, rotation, red-eye removal, zooming, cleaning out blemishes, and cropping, then print the results or share them via e-mail. Next, Photolightning can help you create photo albums, burn photos onto CDs, and make slide shows. The slide shows can be viewed without any special software in your Web browser. The program's somewhat restrictive, wizard-style approach may not appeal to everyone, but its functionality makes it a worthwhile download for beginners.Publisher's description
From Photolightning :Photolightning is designed to be the fastest and easiest way to download, enhance, and then perform any final processing/sharing required by business users. Use the many one-click enhancements in case your photo taking skills do not rival a professional's. If you do appraisals or inspections, the comment/markup feature is a great time saver. For printing, create perfect borderless prints or complete album pages with captions (with 2 clicks) great for before/after photos. Use the emailer to embed photos into the body of an email (along with captions) for quick review--works with every ISP, including AOL. Photolightning also has one of the most capable batch processing functions available. For eBay sellers, prepare perfectly sized and composed photos with optional watermarks. You can even automatically prepare Word or PowerPoint documents that include photos. Use the effortless photo backup function to backup your photos to CD/DVD or network drive.
