Photogenics

Would Photogenics ver-1.2 work on AmigaOS 4.0 and AmigaOS 4.1 ?

@Ant

No idea really. But i'm using 5.0 and that works quite good actually. I buyed it online. Not bad price too.

@Antique

Where did you buy it?

@smf

you should be able to buy it here, but its been a few years since I got it

Amiga Photogenics





















thanks Trixie for reminding me

Hi Chris I'm afraid not, as far as I know I use either the pencil tool or the Airbrush set to size 1+ max pressure, of course you can reduce the pressure to get a faint/tinted line, its works ok ( all the crimbo avatars are modded using photogenics)

@AJS

I've just realised I have PerfectPaint installed. I don't think I've ever used it. Quite how that got overlooked on every image editing task I'll never know.

(I still haven't used it because I'm missing libraries which I can't be bothered to locate)

@Ant

I have photogenics 4.1 which works on OS 4/4.1 though I only use it in limited ways.

@Antique
I'm interested to know how stable the latest version of Photogenics is on OS4.1. Older versions had a reputation for being unstable (on OS3, let-alone with OS4's more stringent checks & new memory manager!).

@ChrisH

I only use it to rezise images. It hangs randomly when i open the resize window. Sometimes often,other times i can change many pictures before it stops. I haven't used it for other things so can't really comment on that. But it does what i want it to after some resets.

Using Photogenics only for image resizing is a bit of an overkill, isn't it? If resizing and/or cropping images is all you need, why not try WarpView? It is OS4 native, cheap, and works very well.

@trixie

I did buy photogenics,so better use it for something.
Also nice to have if there is something else sometime i need it for.

@Antique

Yeah I can understand that It was just a tip.

@trixie
How good is the resizing of WarpView? Most programs do really crappy resizing, leaving "jaggies" & other artefacts. In the past (on OS3) I have used ImageStudio & ArtEffects3 (one does enlargement better, one does shrinking better, I forget which way round).

@AJS

What version did you get when you bought Photogenics a few years back?

Version 4.1?

Also, I noticed the link, one can only download the program, do you think one could ask to have it on disc media? Then again, I suppose the disc media wouldnt be anything special in this case, apart from a burnt copy of the downloadable?

Cheers.

It's quite OK, actually. You can select from four different resampling methods (the best being the default), and the resizing quality is definitely sufficient for preparing web graphics.

While a complete graphics suite like Photogenics or ArtEffect is surely a more universal tool, on the PC I found myself needing just IrfanView most of the time. That's why I came with the WarpView suggestion - works for me.

(Not mentioning the fact that by paying the humble $20 you support an active Amiga developer.)

@Antique

I have the latest version available of Photogenics for the amiga os and i think is the version 5.0 and work on amiga os 4.1 on sam440ep

@Gebrochen

Hi Gebrochen I'm sure it is Version 5, being such a small executable,I sure it would be a waste of a CD
You could E-mail Paul at paul@idruna.com for conformation

I buy it too (Version 5.0). It runs ok on Sam440ep.

I don?t make too much with it but i will be in future.

I have Photogenics 5.0 and it works great. Once you learn how to use it, you can do amazing things with it
