Nearly everyone sends greeting cards for the holiday season. But who really wants to get a store-bought card? The solution is simple—create your own greeting out of your own photos. Read on to learn how to do it.

Retouching is no longer just removing skin blemishes. With increasingly advanced tools that use frequency separation, you can enhance portraits more easily and effectively than ever before. You can adjust skin tones without losing texture or diminish wrinkles without altering skin color. 

Haze, fog, and smoke are frequent tools for creativity. But there is such a thing as too much of a good thing. Too much haze, and your photo loses contrast... and is basically left with nothing left to see. Luckily, you can often remove or reduce haze in post-processing, and it’s not even hard to do.

The ZPS X user interface is designed to make photo and video editing simple and efficient. There are several additional options for customizing ZPS X that may simplify your workflow, including some you may not even know about.

A seemingly unassuming feature with tremendous potential; color profiles that enhance your photos with a single click. These are "LUTs." Let's delve into how LUTs work and how to use them.

We've improved Zoner Photo Studio X to ensure that the necessary tools are even closer at hand. With the new navigation, you'll easily navigate through folders. With icons for the most common tools, you can access frequently used functions even with the hidden side panel. And as always, you can customize everything to suit your needs.

Surely you’ve run into this before: you’re in a place that you want to show off through some great photos, but the weather is against you. There’s a dull gray sky with no room for creativity. You have a subject that’s interesting, but the rest is boring. In most cases you can make use of tone mapping, gradient filters and the like, but there are also cases where there’s no adjustment that can make the sky look good, and yet something does have to be done with it. There is one last resort—replacing the sky.

Presets make photo editing go faster. Because they can apply several of your frequently used operations at once. Presets keep you from having to set the same sliders to the same values again and again; it all just takes one click. The built-in presets aren’t a good fit for you? No problem. Zoner Photo Studio offers an easy way to create your own. It will save you work, and you’ll get to keep your own original editing style. 

Gradient Filter functions are generally used for darkening or coloring the top of a photo—usually the sky. They basically replace a physical gradient filter that you’d place over your camera’s lens. But the Gradient Filter in ZPS X is also highly customizable and offers lots of creative opportunities.
