AliveColors is an intuitive program for Windows that enables you to enhance your digital image before publishing them on social media or prior to simply printing and framing them. Once installed, you are prompted to load your graphic files. A wide range of formats is supported, including BMP, PNG, JPEG, TIFF, SVG and more.

Editing capabilities

After you have the desired image in front of you, you can start applying special effects. It is easy to decide if you have achieved the best combination as the changes are displayed instantly and you may revert them at any point in time.

Similar to Autodesk Pixlr, the utility offers a considerable amount of effects, such as blur, distortion, noise, pixelate, highlight and shadow, sharpen, etc. Please note that each of these instruments comes with specialized variables that you can tweak.

What is more, you have the ability to overlay one or more layers to get the ideal graphic design you are searching for. In addition to mask support, you are able to apply various effects to these layers like emboss, bevel, glow, shadow, stroke.

Batch processing

Another advantage of using this tool is that you can automatically process multiple pictures at once. More precisely, you need to browse to the source and destination folders, pick the target format and select the file-naming pattern. The last stage is to compile a list with all the enhancements you want to apply, and simply wait until the procedure is over.
