Upcoming Features: The Compare Tool

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009

I will post some previews from our upcoming version. Feel free to tell us what you think by writing some comments.

One of my favorites is the compare tool. It’s a magical slider that you can use to see your image before and after applying an effect. I can drag the vertical line to change the area it covers.
