ou could not but help notice the prolific nature of the Aminet CDs - turn your back for one moment and bang another one flies Al through the office door and hits you in the back of the head. Currently, there seems to be a net one every month, which is Li testament to how lively the Amiga PO scene has been and s stil very much so. In amongst all the stuff you find on Arninet, there is a type of program distributed under the title of shareware. This is the concept where the author ibis you to test their program, which they could have spent years developing, to decide if you wars to keep it If you do keep the program you are obliged to send the author a set fee which can be as little as Re pounds. Paying your shareware lee gives the author an incentive to keep on developing their program, and gives you direct support horn the author for that program. This is along with the fact that the author of a program you have registered for is much more likely ilD listen to any additions you want to that program. It you use a shareware program you really should go Our and pay the fee. Not only will you have that nice warm glowing feeling that you have done something righteous and good for once in your life, you will also OMAGESTUDIO ImageStudio should be fairly well known to everyone. Programmed by a couple of local Macclesfield lads, this is a very well supported and put together image processing program. The main improvement for the latest version is the addition of full colour windowed previews that let you get a better impression of what the final picture will be like. The package comes on two disks and is instaled using - everyone together now - the standard Amiga installer. For people that have never used ImageStudio before, there are a good few tutorials to guide you through the different aspects of it. These are in with the AmigaGuide manual which also doubles as the on-line help. You now have the option of the preview window working in either grey scale or colour modes, You will be glad to know that the colour previews seem to be redrawn as fast as the grey scale ones, but you will need a Hi-res screen mode with at least 64 colours to get the best out of it ImageStudio has the normal array of colour control effects like balance, gamma and con. trast, along with the standard image manipulation tools, such as flip, scale, cut, grey scale, negative and pixellated. The more interesting pans of ImageStudio come in the form of its convolute effects and the comprehensive ARexx port. Convolute is a normal image processing function, and through it you can produce hundreds of different effects. With ImageStudio you get a number of standard convolutes which you can select from the handy convolute list view. It is also possible to add your give the author another reason to keep on developing their program. You also get support from them which normally includes them sending you the next few updates, and they are usually very helpful when it comes to problem solving. So all you people who have unregistered own to the list and save them for future use. Some of you might be quite surprised when you look at the system requirements at the small amount of memory needed, because normally image processing programs need as much memory as possible. ImageStudio gets round this by implementing internal virtual memory which allows the image data to be stored on your hard drive, therefore taking up no memory. The down side is that all the disk access slows down the preview redraws. If you do have enough of RAM then you can tell ImageStudio to use the RAM Disk as the virtual memory storage space to gain a large speed increase. With a good modular program design allowing you to add your own convolutes and ARexx scripts at a later date, and regular updates being he best things in life are free, well almost.
