PictoColor’s PictoScript Newsletter, July 2011 issue, is now available.

Great Color Made Simple is the theme of the July issue of PictoScript Newsletter. We continue our 10 year celebration of the iCorrect color correction software product line highlighting iCorrect EditLab Pro Photoshop Plug-in.

Great Color Made Simple-iCorrect EditLab Pro Photoshop Plug-in

In the last issue of PictoScript we began the celebration of the ten year anniversary of PictoColor’s iCorrect Photoshop Plug-ins highlighting our first plug-in, iCorrect Professional (now called iCorrect Portrait). This issue’s focus is iCorrect EditLab Pro Photoshop Plug-in, first released in February 2002 by Pictographics International, our technology licensing company. The “color engine” behind EditLab Pro is Pictographics’ Color Profile Editing technology, a proprietary set of complex color algorithms for editing ICC color management profiles. Now, if that doesn’t sound impressive I don’t know what does. What Pictographics really did when creating iCorrect EditLab was to “package” this complex technology into a simple to use Photoshop plug-in that made achieving great color simple. Read all about iCorrect EditLab Pro in the newsletter.   http://www.pictocolor.com/PictoScript_Newsletter/July2011_1.htm.  If you are not on our email list you can sign up at http://www.pictocolor.com/newsletter.htm.

Which iCorrect Software is Best for You? When this question is asked by customers we most often answer, “It depends.” Then we go on to inquire about the kinds of photos they take, what they do with the photos they take, and if the use Photoshop, Elements, Lightroom, or can’t stand to use any of them. Most often, in a couple of minutes we can steer them to the iCorrect software that is best for them. But, not everyone has the time to talk so we have put together some information that, hopefully, will answer the question.
