Photo Effects3.15

Photo Effects is a lightweight piece of software that provides you with several basic tools to enhance your pictures and photo albums.

Comes with a clean and minimalistic interface

The interface of the program is plain and simple. You can import an image by using the file browser (the "drag and drop" method and batch processing are not supported).So, you can add artistic, color, illumination, traditional and distortion effects, as well as put an accent to the entire image, only edges, top part, and so on.But you can also add decoration items, such as button effects (set the relief width and depth), simple borders (set width, height, thickness), original frames, edge effects (set the size of the shadow and shadow blur) and artistic frames (set frame size).

Allows you to preview the effect prior to applying it

Furthermore, you can specify the composition mode and optionally enable round corners, shadows and glowing, as well as select the background, choose a solid color or gradient.In addition, you can preview results before applying them, zoom in and out of the image, switch to fullscreen mode and use the cut, copy and paste tools.Moreover, you can cancel all image effects, add text, adjust the brightness, contrast and color balance, resize or crop the picture, as well as convert it to the BMP, GIF, JPEG, PNG or TIFF format.The program uses a moderate-to-high amount of system resources and includes a well-drawn help file with snapshots. We haven't encountered any kind of issues during our tests. However, Photo Effects does not provide users with any kind of professional effects.

A picture editor that can come in handy for amateurs

In the eventuality that you want to enhance your photos with various special filters and effects you can easily manage, but lack the experience with editor apps, then perhaps Photo Effects can lend you a hand.
