Genuine Fractals 5.0 & Pantone hueyPRO Bundle Offer - Plus Exclusive 10% Discount

October 25, 2007

Photoshop Plugins Genuine Fractals 5 & Genuine Fractals Print Pro 5 - Plus Exclusive 10% Discount Coupon CodePantone and onOne have announced a new digital imaging bundle that improves the color fidelity and image control for design projects. Now available at a 30% cost savings (plus a special exclusive 10% discount for PhotoshopSupport.com - details below), the bundle includes PANTONE hueyPRO, a member of Pantone's award-winning huey family of display calibration products, and onOne Software's Genuine Fractals 5, an Adobe Photoshop plug-in for image scaling. Together, the two solutions help photographers and creative professionals create superior digital imaging projects.

hueyPRO offers color clarity and consistency across multiple CRT, laptop and LCD displays at an unprecedented level of precision calibration. Additionally, it features an embedded high-precision sensor that automatically measures the ambient light within a room. Genuine Fractals 5 is the industry standard for image enlargements, allowing users to increase images by 1000 percent with no loss in image quality.

"Color management is an important part of any photography or design project and hueyPRO offers greater control over on-screen fidelity," said Matthew Chilton, product marketing manager for Pantone, Inc. "By bundling hueyPRO with Genuine Fractals 5, we are offering photographers and creatives the best image resizing software while ensuring that their monitors are calibrated properly to display true color."

"We have spent years making sure that Genuine Fractals will deliver the highest quality enlargement possible to the photographic and design communities," said Mike Wong, vice president of marketing for onOne Software. "Having a correctly color calibrated display with true color is the first step in the process of getting that perfect enlargement, and the hueyPRO excels at simplifying the color management process. I use mine everyday."

Genuine Fractals 5 Added To Top 5 List by Popular Photography
Popular Photography Magazine has named onOne Software's Genuine Fractals 5 to their Top 5 Must Have Software Programs for October 2007. Here's what they said: "Interpolation — the process of adding pixels to an image so you can view or print it bigger — should be handled with care. Using Photoshop’s Image Size dialog and its default bicubic resampling sometimes works fine, but quality can suffer if you try to go too big. The latest version of Genuine Fractals’ popular plug-in, which is accessed through Photoshop CS, CS2, or Elements 3 and 4, is simple: Open it, input the new image size you want, check the preview, crop if you like, and hit OK. We got better results from the software than we did with the same amount of upsizing in Photoshop. And because Genuine Fractals is a plug-in, you can create a Photoshop Action to enlarge in batches."

SiteGrinder Photoshop Plugin - Create Websites Instantly

Media Lab Release SiteGrinder Basic and SiteGrinder ProThere often seems to be a strict division of labor within the world of web design and development. Creative professionals tend to stick to the Photoshop domain, while those well-versed in scripting are left to the task of implementing their work. Indeed, the two realms are quite different from each other, to which any of us even vaguely familiar with either can easily attest.

Essentially, Photoshop is a no-holds-barred design studio, offering the artist a seemingly endless array of creative options. On the other hand, HTML, CSS, Java and the like follow strict rules of engagement, requiring the developer to take any number of esoteric concerns into consideration in order to ensure that designs are properly displayed on the web.

Turn Photoshop Into A Complete Web Design Tool
SiteGrinder seeks to bridge this gap between design and development. Basically, this program turns Photoshop into an easy-to-use and fully functional web design tool. With SiteGrinder, designers will now have the freedom to totally let their creativity loose and then, without skipping a beat, transfer their designs to the web. Bringing esthetic concerns together with more practical considerations, this program is an amazingly powerful tool that would make a fantastic addition to any web designer's bag of tricks.

SiteGrinder Basic and SiteGrinder ProGenerate Your Web Pages Directly From Photoshop
By generating web pages directly from Photoshop, you'll be able to spend much more time on the creative end of the spectrum, since you'll know right off the bat how well particular designs will translate to the web. No more going back to the Photoshop drawing board after getting a phone call from your development team, telling you that what you had envisioned doesn't have a chance of being displayed on the web. You can immediately visually and interactively test your designs, which permits you to then make changes to either esthetics or functions while it's still relatively early on in the design process.

Pricing and Availability
Mac OS X and Windows versions of the SiteGrinder unlockable demo are available now via download. SiteGrinder can be ordered from Media Lab's online store.
