Glow creates a magical luminescent glowing effect that infuses your work with a sense of energetic movement and flow (see how it works here). The effects are fully adjustable, from subtle background enhancements to an electrifying ‘wow’ look with fractal and neon illumination. Found here: Topaz Glow 2
It is designed to create vibrant images with energetic sparks of neon light. 72 hand-crafted presets offer a way explore Topaz Glow’s capabilities with a single click. You can move past them to create your own effects, but the built-in presets are designed to work well with a wide range of images.
Often images have hidden textures that aren’t visible to the naked eye. Topaz Glow illuminates these hidden contours. The result is surreal and magical – almost like painting on your photo with beautiful luminescent ink.
New Features in Glow 2 Include:
- Over 30 New Presets – That brings the total to over 100 included effects to amplify your images or give you a boost creating a personal look you love.
- New Masking Module -You no longer need a host editor like Photoshop to create masks on your images! Now, you can open Glow 2 and mask areas of your image directly from the application using luminosity, color selection, a spot mask, or a traditional brush mask, and yes it’s color aware :)
- Unlimited Undo/Redo – That’s right! As long as you don’t close the program you can now undo or redo to your hearts content (as far as your system memory will allow.)
- Topaz Community Integration – Topaz Glow 2 is the 3rd of our products to include the Topaz Community, an easy way for users to search save and share custom made presets with other Glow 2 users around the world. Surf an ocean of hand crafted presets, then download and apply with a click. Or share your custom presets for other users to try.
- Automatic Preset Backup – as long as you’re signed into your account when you save a preset, that preset will be privately uploaded to the community then synced on any other machine you sign into.
