With all the photos, video and music files on your computer, wouldn't you like software that can actually simplify things? ArcSoft PhotoImpression® 6 not only manages your media for you, but also gives you tons of fun and exciting ways to enjoy it. However, perhaps the key difference with this and its open source rival is you must part with cash for the full version of PhotoImpression. PhotoImpression performs admirably compared to the wonderful, if strangely-named, GIMP. It would have been nice to see support for more advanced manipulation tools such as layers and gradients in PhotoImpression, but for someone who's just retouching or revamping their snaps, this is ideal. PhotoImpression's GUI is laid out in a way that leads you intuitively through the process of organizing, enhancing, and creating interesting looking photos and graphics, whether it's to share on the web, email to your pals, or print out.Ĭlicking each of the tabs that represent these stages of production will bring up a series of controls that help you perform a variety of tasks, from fixing problem photos to applying effects and frames to your images. It has to be said that PhotoImpression pulls this off pretty well, and its colorful interface manages to marry some of the advanced features of programs like Photoshop with the simplicity of an app like the GIMP or IrfanView.
