WinImages


Image Manipulation Software
For Microsoft Windows

WinImages has more special effects power packed into it than any other software you can buy for your Windows machine. Really.

Fire, lightning - even tornadoes - all are easily created, both still and in motion. You can generate animated brushstrokes with our fabulous image barrels You can generate rocket exhausts and fireworks, build custom textures, make moving water, ray trace, create landscapes and heightfields and gems, plasmas, explosions and camera flares, snow, rain, smoke, and all kinds of animated fogs. You can morph and you can warp with the effects system that's been used in major motion pictures, television and the advertising industry for years.

That's just the tip of the iceberg. You can take complete control of every image you work with using the most powerful layered image system ever created. With 74 layer blend modes, including geometric warping blends, with local layer stacks, global masking, fully automatic malleable-after-generation shadow and glow generators, unlimited numbers of image layers and the ability to edit and view more than one layer at one time, you'll be in a whole new world of image editing.

Batch processing and animated effects are very easy to do - almost as simple as applying effects to still images. And effects can be applied just within any area selection on an image or layer - not only to the entire image, the way most effects "filters" work in other software. And the areas can move and morph in shape, carrying the effects with them as they move, and as the effect itself changes. Imagine what you could do with that!

Fully automatic tweening of effect position and parameters allow you to animate and mutate effects in ways that flawlessly track the objects and actions in an animation. You can have electrical effects that follow an actor down a street, and you can remove unwanted scene elements such as wires and other objects and perform object stabilization. You can even correct depth of field errors between multiple images and use morphing to seamlessly combine takes and remove acting glitches.

Sure, you get virtually unlimited undo and redo. You get the ability to edit any number of images at once, with multiple views and multiple magnifications visible for that image (or layer.) You get a powerful multi-level timeline that allows you to stack effects in time as well as on top of one another. Tasks like redeye removal and compositing can be approached in new ways that are both more flexible and provide better results. And you get more control over area selections, both still and animated, than you've ever had before.

We want you to know that we provide very complete tutorials for animating effects applied to both still images and animated image sequences to ensure that you enjoy early and continued success in using the software. Not only that, but we also provide a whole suite of tutorials to help you explore some interesting possibilities.

WinImages is extremely fast, and handles very large images with ease. It supports Windows printing facilities, and provides powerful color separation and correction tools that will help you get the best results from your work at professional print shops.

An integrated image manager allows you to filter and organize images using thumbnails. You can take groups of images, selected by thumbnail, filtered and sorted, directly into the software and generate animated effects on them. You can even select images via their thumbnails using wildcards. And those thumbnails work for all of the hundreds of variations of filetypes that WinImages can read.

Need something special? You can write custom scripts using a powerful scripting language similar to BASIC which allows you to use every effect in WinImages as a part of your own special composite effect - and gives you the strength of a very complete programming language as well. We provide great examples that generate moving camera flares and gold foils, among other things. Or, if you're a real "metal-head", we provide a complete effects plug-in system with numerous examples for MS Visual C++ 5 or later, written in pure C code (not C++).

WinImages provides unique and wonderful tools for photographers, such as the ability to "stack" multiple exposures to achieve greater accuracy, less noise, or a combination of both. Stacked alignment provides for both translation and rotation, and stacking is done to 48-bit accuracy. This is extremely useful for astro-photography, but has general application as well.

You're probably thinking something nasty (but understandable) right now about the statements we've been making here. You've probably been surfing all over the web, like most of our visitors, and such things are 99% hype. Right? We've asked, and that's exactly what most visitors think. We don't blame them, because that's usually the case. Most graphics software is "junkware". Over-hyped and under-powered. Or worse!

But after getting WinImages, Skip Fredricks, a television producer for Fox Sports, said: "WinImages is by far the best special F/X animation program I have ever seen or used. I have been around some pretty heavy duty digital systems and without a doubt, this is the best."

He should know - and we think you should know, too.

As one of our other customers says, "Either you're at the head of the pack with this software, or you're dog meat!"

Instead of the hate letters our competitors expect as run of the mill customer feedback, we get comments like Brent Turner's: "I'm hooked - and I have barely scratched the surface of this package's capabilities! Yes, yes, yes…"

It's a real jungle out there. If you're like most graphic artists and animators, you've bought more than one program that just sits on your hard drive (or has been thrown off it!) because its basically useless, no matter what you were told about it. Not this one. For instance, Jenson Dwayne wrote us and said: "I couldn't be without it now!" Dennis Adam wrote to say "WinImages is actually the best program I have seen!"

From the great results our professional customers and our home-brewing graphic artists have had with WinImages, you can see that we actually deliver what we promise. It's true. All of it. Everything we've described, and a lot more, is yours with WinImages.

Naturally, you're interested in having this kind of power available for your next project. The good news is that it's very affordable - WinImages is only a fraction of the cost of separate tools to do just some of these things; and it is very easy to order using our Secure Server. We usually complete orders the same business day, and we take all major credit cards.

So the next time you get creative, set some hair on fire. Literally. WinImages - the most graphics power you can put in one place on your hard drive.

WinImages has been shipping for Windows since 1992, and is now in its 7th major release. It's the "secret weapon" of a very large number of multimedia, visual arts, cinematic and television enterprises. Now you too can have the power of the professionals - so why wait?
