Ever since I posted a new texture of some tree bark for PhotoFrame, I've had a lot of requests from people asking how they can create their own textures. This tutorial explains how to do just that!

There are two kinds of textures (and frames for that matter) that PhotoFrame recognizes. There are grayscale textures and there are RGB textures.

December 2, 2008 by Mike Wong • Comments Off

You know 2009 is just around the corner when the December 2008 edition of PC Photo Magazine lists their 2009 Editors' Choice award winners. I was very excited to see as I read this issue that FocalPoint 1 received an Editors' Choice award. PhotoFrame 3 received a similar award back at the end of 2006 for the 2007 awards so we're excited to have another product recognized.

If you haven't tried FocalPoint out yet, you can download a demo version and try it for yourself for 30 days. Check it out!

Genuine Fractals 6 & PhotoTools 2

November 19, 2008 by Mike Wong • 2 Comments

Earlier today, I sent out an eNewsletter about lots of news going on here at onOne. One story that has generated lots of email and phone calls is I wasn't clear that Genuine Fractals 6 and PhotoTools 2 are NOT shipping yet, but only announced.

Please note, Genuine Fractals 6 (standard and professional editions) are scheduled to ship around the end of November or the first week in December depending on how fast we can get disks back from our CD replicator.

PhotoTools 2 (standard and professional edition) won't be shipping until late January 2009.

I apologize for any confusion the eNews may have caused.
