Working with Photos and Images
Any graphic will accept a photo:
Any graphic can be used to crop a photo or
image. This is a great way to incorporate
photos, clip art, or any other image content in your
drawings.
Prep for email:
Prepare your photos for email by Cropping and
exporting in the desired format (JPG, PNG, BMP,
etc). These steps will help you maintain the
best quality with the smallest file size for your
email photos.
Create a Frame with any pair of graphics:
An inner
graphic (any shape or form) provides a clipping path and
creates the transparent window to the contents.
The outer
graphic (also any shape or form) provides the fill and
stroke colors for the familiar frame and matte effect.
Composite effects work great with photos:
The photo below uses a Spot Gradient fill over
the photo, with a "Plus-Darker" composite logic to add a
highlighting special effect to the picture shown at the
top of this page.

Drag and Drop
Use the Import menu or just drop a photo
(JPEG, TIFF, etc) on any EazyDraw drawing window.
Advance Effects
Advance composite effects can be used to
enhance the appearance of a photo, or any image. Check out the
image at the bottom of this page for one example. |
Crop
Any graphic can be combined
with a photo as a cropping path. The crop path can be interactively
modified with a simple click and drag of a control handle.
Frame!
Use two graphics to create a
Frame. The inner shape forms the "hole" in outer object. The
photo, image, or any other graphic(s) is clipped by the inner path and
framed by the outer path. Both the clip and frame graphics may be
interactively changed by normal click and drag actions: you don't need
to undo the frame to modify the components.
