Product Description:

Compositor is an innovative image to art creator and image editor and enhancer from Artly There Software featuring over 160 filter and channel effects. Version 2.0 adds a complete painting tools and editing tool set (Tool Mode) and multi-document ability. As with prior versions it is also an excellent visualizer for artists and photographers as regards knowing how an image or portion of an image would appear when printed or painted at a certain proportion or portion of the original, thanks to its unique "black matte" feature (Frame and Mat Modes). This feature also allows for fast cropping to a set proportion. The program can save and replay your actions for use on another image, movie, or upon the original and this is now made much easier with the addition of the new Actions Palette. There is too much to mention here. Please visit the Compositor Home Page and take the tour!

What's new in this version:

Over v1.9.5, this version 2.0 is a huge upgrade and adds a complete and full featured painting and editing tools set. New Filters are there including High Pass, Unsharp Mask, Fill Edges, Quick Palette, Actions Palette, Zoom Window, and fast color pickers. There are 20 Paste Using options now. It is a huge upgrade. Free to any prior registered user.

(Over prior preview versions, this fixes several bugs, adds some new progress indicators in many places, and tidies up some interface issues. )

Compositor ReviewInstant photo to art!!! - Version: 2.15.0, 9/24/2009 02:02PM PST

Compositor has been continuously refined for 8 years or more and just gets better and better: more paint features, better help and under-the-hood improvements. The real godsend has been the infinite undo facility which works like a dream and allows me to work quickly and experimentally with the confidence that if I do something I don't like I can go back and try again. Lovely feature.

Photoshop results but so much easier to use! Cheaper too! ;-)

Compositor ReviewI'm totally in… - Version: 2.3, 1/18/2003 11:22PM PST

love with Compositor. I'm a wannabe-artist with no talent -- can't even draw a straight line. I'm also somewhat of a computer-idiot, but found Compositor (v 1.95) a few weeks after getting connected to the 'net (Oct. 2001) for the very first time (the only computer I had owned before that was the antique Apple IIc.) Compositor was incredibly simple to use, to create, to express buried cravings. I wrote a great Version-tracker review back then, but it went "poof." This upgrade is even better -- downloaded it for the first time last night, because I was terrified it might replace (wipe out) the original. Not so. This developer is beyond-bright; both versions will exist side-by-side, so there is no risk of loosing the original. Support is beyond-fantastic, though I'm not sure I ever needed it -- except I dreamed of a "cartoonize" filter, never mentioned it, and -- presto! -- it's in the new version. Kids love to be made to look like cartoons....or granite statues. naaah, I don't know the guy. I'd not his dad/son/neighbor; he didn't slip me $10 under the table. I just love this program. Compositor is simplicty in an age where complicity appears to be the order of the day. No one NEEDS a "Compositor for Dummies" or "Compositor -- The Missing Manual." By the way, trying to post this was a nightmare. Couldn't use my email because it was already registered, though it wouldn't allow me to post over a year ago? Do we need a "VersionTracker for Dummies" or "VersionTracker -- The Missing Manual" ???

Compositor ReviewThis program ROCKS!!!!… - Version: 2.2, 11/20/2002 03:02PM PST

Not only is it one of the most useful graphics apps for artistic stuff, it is also a great tool for creating your own pseudo-rotoscoping filters for video work. This program is proof to the nay-sayers(like Micro$oft) that shareware and open-source efforts can often outdo the "big dogs." Despite the fact that Classic mode is not officially supported, I find that it works flawlessly in Classic mode on my 733 G4, and even runs faster than in native OS9! Very cool. Makes it a non-issue to wait for the OSX version. :)
