photofiltrescreenshot01 I was playing with a new design program this morning, called PhotoFiltre. I was really quite impress with the wide array of features this little program offers. PhotoFiltre boasts itself as a “… a complete image retouching program.” but I say, it’s much more than that.. especially with the availability of all the free plugins and addons!

photofiltrescreenshot02 This program is available free for private and educational use and I’m seriously considering getting this added to our computer lab at school. I think this would be a great addition to my design curriculum for next year. My students really enjoy the filter effects they have access to on the design programs we currently use (artweaver, paint.net), but PhotoFiltre comes with way more options, right out of the box, including masks, a great variety of filter effects, and even automated batch image operations – very nice!

For commercial use, you will need to register and pay a modest amount. Well worth it if you ask me. Check this program out at photofiltre.com.
