Re: Photodemon
I'd like to say it's my birthday today since I definitely got a present: one of my favorite programs just put out the latest beta with a lot of work behind it: http://photodemon.org/

Re: Photodemon
This is rapidly becoming a complement or accessory to other powerful, free tools like GIMP, Photivo and RawTherapee.

What should I think of this? on Firefox 57.0.2
Re: Photodemon
I didn't see that when I downloaded it so I'm not sure what to say. I'd go ahead and download it and then check with VirusTotal to see if it's a false positive.Dwel wrote:What should I think of this? on Firefox 57.0.2

It's only showing an 11/61 now so I'd guess false positives.webfork wrote:Dwel wrote:What should I think of this? on Firefox 57.0.2
VT is giving it a 14/61, which I'll admit is high:

Keystoning: How to fix with Photodemon
I found that the simplest tool to fix the "Keystone Effect" is Photodemon ( https://www.portablefreeware.com/index.php?id=2656 ).
In Photodemon, go to Effects >> Transform >> Perspective
The interface is very intuitive.

Any chance you've got a screenshot? I didn't recognize the effect name so I looked it up on Wikipedia:juverax wrote: ↑Sat Aug 29, 2020 9:17 am I found that the simplest tool to fix the "Keystone Effect" is Photodemon ( https://www.portablefreeware.com/index.php?id=2656 ).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keystone_effectThe keystone effect is the apparent distortion of an image caused by projecting it onto an angled surface. It is the distortion of the image dimensions, such as making a square look like a trapezoid, the shape of an architectural keystone, hence the name of the feature.

Re: Photodemon
Great, thank you. The examples at the link are really the opposite of what I saw on the Wikipedia page, where it appeared to be about distorting a standard image rather than normalizing two rather unique images (a book cover and a cityscape).

Re: Photodemon
How did I not know about this app?
A worthy Photoshop alternative that is open-source. Need to test it more, but big thumbs up on first impressions!

is it stealth?

Agreed - it's becoming a constant companion on both my home and work machines.freakazoid wrote: ↑Sun Aug 30, 2020 3:56 pm A worthy Photoshop alternative that is open-source. Need to test it more, but big thumbs up on first impressions!
Re: PhotoDemon
PhotoDemon 8.0 now has full support for Windows icons, in response to my feature request to the author on his Github site. He's very receptive to feedback, and his attention to detail has resulted in a really great alternative to PhotoShop. In fact, because it is freeware I often think of it as a poor man's PhotoShop. I like it especially because it loads quickly even on my underpowered Win7 netbook, supports multiple images in tabs, and is more compliant with the Windows OS than a lot of other apps I've used.
Re: PhotoDemon
Thanks for letting us know. And welcome to the forums, GerryB.
Re: PhotoDemon
My pleasure. I see from the nightly builds that the author's already working on version 8.2, just when I thought PhotoDemon could do just about anything. A fullscreen viewing option would be nice, but I won't request it, because he's got enough on his plate already. I open my images in the FastStone image viewer by default and launch PD from there when advance editing is needed. FastStone has lots of nice editing features, but its highlight and shadow function is not very accurate.
