Photo Toolkit is a Windows application that allows users to view and make adjustments to the image files.

Brief overview

The graphical user interface is simple and intuitive. Thanks to the Explorer-based layout you can easily locate and access pictures on your computer. You are able to zoom in and out, fit the image to screen, rotate left and right, as well as utilize the undo and redo functions.

Special effects

When it comes to special effects, the program provides limited editing tools. You have the option to remove red eye and enhance colors. The latter you can do automatically or manually. Additionally, it is possible to configure the brightness, contrast and gamma levels.

Moreover, you are able to adjust crispness, set luminance and color denoise strength. It is worth noting that you may transform images into cartoons by using various warping effects.

Furthermore, you may apply makeup, adjust the lighting effects and add 3D relief, as well as straighten or crop the image. Once you are satisfied with the results, you can save the picture in the following formats:

JPG;
BMP;
PNG;
GIF;
TIFF.
