Combine Multiple Effects Together

The real power of PhotoTools 2.6 is its ability to stack multiple effects together, just like using multiple filters over your camera lens. You can stack up to 16 effects on top of each other, creating your own unique look. You have complete control over the strength of each effect and can seamlessly blend them together, just like adjusting opacity in Photoshop. By stacking and combining effects, you can create an endless variety of custom effects and corrections.

Full Control

PhotoTools 2.6 gives you all the control you need when you add an effect. Many effects have options that control their color or look. The strength of each effect can be controlled with the fade slider from subtle to strong. You can also use the Masking Brush to selectively apply effects. You can paint an effect in or protect an area from being effected. In PhotoTools 2.6 you get the Focus Bug style mask controls from FocalPoint as well. With this new control, you can position effects in round or square areas quickly to create vignettes or graduated effects.

onOne Panel

The new onOne Panel in Adobe Photoshop allows you to quickly launch PhotoTools without having to navigate through Photoshop's menus. But it takes that power even farther by giving you access to your favorite presets right from the panel as well. This will save time by allowing you to apply your most frequently used effects right inside of Photoshop.

Free PhotoTools Presets

With so many effects, we know that it can be challenging to get started with PhotoTools. That's why we've created dozens of presets that are included with PhotoTools out of the gate. To keep your creativity going, we have many more presets for you to download at no additional charge, so you'll always have amazing looking images.
