Tool Bar Reference

In this example we are going to use the Cropping tool, OneClick Color Correction tool, & Sharpen tool.

Step 1. Open Picture

First, select the photo from My Pictures folder using CorrectPhoto's built-in Windows Explorer.

Note: You can save the final corrected picture in the same folder or using File/Save As to put it into another folder. If this is the first picture you correct and save the Auto Archive feature will ask you if you want to archive the original file. It is a good idea to archive your original shots for future reference.

Step 2. Crop Picture

With CorrectPhoto, you can crop to specific print sizes like 3x5, 4x6, 5x7, etc. Two, you can turn an average snapshot into a more meaningful portrait by zeroing in on the important elements and leaving out the rest.

Select 4x6 Landscape Cropping Format

Grab the black squares to change the size of the crop window and position the curser inside the box with the left mouse button depressed and you can move the crop window. When you are satisfy click the Apply button on the tool bar. (Note: The cropped picture is automatically rezed up to maintain high print resolution)

Step 3. OneClick Color Correction

CorrectPhoto's unique OneClick color correction is automatically activated when you apply the crop. Move the curser over the image and click on one or more neutral areas (white, grey or black). In this photo we clicked on the cell phone and the white flower. Normally, that is all you have to do.

If you think adjusting the brightness, contrast or saturation would be beneficial simply click on the color icon on the tool bar and follow the instructions.

Step 4. Sharpen Picture (Optional)

Click on the Sharpen tool to make the final pictures a little sharper or crisper. You will be amazed at how sharp the print will look. But, don't over do it. Normally, only one click is enough, maybe two. If you go to far and the picture starts looking funny click on the Undo button.

Step 5. Save the Memory

Save the final picture by either clicking on the little floppy icon on the tool bar or the File/Save As on the file menu.

The final picture is 2592 x 1729 pixels resulting in a great 4x6 print. We uploaded it to Sam's Club Online Prints and picked up the print and our local Sam's club.

This Create a Memory example was one picture taken at my mother-in-laws 90th birthday party. I took 110 shots with my Canon 5 MP G5. With CorrectPhoto I created a final set of 27 "memories" for family members in less than 30 minutes. I uploaded the files to Sam's Club Online
Print service by clicking on the

on the CorrectPhoto Tool Bar. I picked up the 4x6 prints at our local Sam's Club and they were outstanding.

This memory of Virginia talking to her grandson who was away at college and unable to attend the party was clearly the most favorite memory.
