ON1 Photo is a program that allows you to make some modifications to your pictures. It can be used by both novices and experienced individuals.

The interface of the application is clean and intuitive. Pictures can be imported by using either the file browser or "drag and drop" method.

So, you can use basic editing tools, such as crop, trim, masking brush, retouch brush, pan and zoom. But you can also duplicate and merge layers, adjust the canvas size and set the masking bug tool opacity level.

On top of that, you can use tools which include brush, color spill, chisel, bucket, blur and pan, as well as apply effects (e.g. black and white, borders, color and tone, film, flow, landscape), and others.

In the "Preferences" area you can select the working color space, scrolling controls and preview background color, image bit depth and resolution, configure performance levels (memory and VRAM usage), and more.

The image editing software takes up a massive amount of system resources, has a fair response time and includes a comprehensive help file with snapshots for all users. However, ON1 Photo crashed a couple of times during our tests. It seems to have some compatibility issues with Windows 7. But, even so, we strongly recommend this application to all users, especially experts.
