AKVIS Chameleon is an efficient tool
for photo collage creation. This ingenious software makes
the process easy and entertaining. Earlier one had
to thoroughly select an object before pasting it
into a new background; with this software this
tedious part of work drops out. You can
concentrate on the creative part and forget about
complicated selection techniques. AKVIS Chameleon works in four
modes: Montage mode, Chameleon mode, Blend mode, and
Emersion mode. Montage Mode. In this mode the
program combines images to create a seamless photo
montage. It transfers selected objects to a new
background and makes the irrelevant parts of the
pasted fragment fade away. The object does not
change its color range or opacity, only its
edges adapt to the new environment and get
smoothed. This mode is good to use for
creating photo collages with people (pasting a person
into a new background). Chameleon Mode. In this
mode the program adjusts the pasted fragment to
the target image color range and smoothes the
object's borders. It looks similar to the way
a chameleon adapts to the environment. Blend Mode.
In this mode the program does not only
smoothen the borders of the pasted object and
adjusts its color range, but it also makes
the object semi-transparent, so that the texture and
the relief of the primary image can be
seen through. Use this mode if you want
to 'dissolve' the pasted image in the background.
Emersion Mode. In Emersion mode, like in Montage
mode, the program combines images to create a
seamless photo montage. The difference between the two
is that in Emersion Mode the pasted fragment
does not overlay the background, but embeds into
the background so that only certain parts of
the fragment are visible. This mode allows making
montages with difficult objects (trees, etc). The tool
is very easy to handle as it does
not require precise selection of objects. You can
use AKVIS Chameleon in many ways. You can
create customized postcards for your loved ones; make
a wedding album using all kinds of photos
and backgrounds; correct closed eyes (by implanting open
eyes from another photo of the series), change
the appearance of a person, etc. Designers will
appreciate this tool as it allows them to
combine images with entirely different color ranges, to
create the effect of drawing on a texture
surface (crumpled paper, wood, etc), and all that
with only a mouse-click. AKVIS Chameleon is available
