it converts any image to a coloring page. There is a $20 version and a $35 version. I downloaded the trial version of this one and the one in this site. the kidware.net one is cheaper and superior.

Verdict: Waste of time

I attempted for three hours last nigh to download this program and alas, it did not work. Was your sit down? I tried at several times during the day. rally need this for my children and cannot afford it so am saddened to see you post it here yet say it s available when it was clearly ot – unless yo hav a good explanation. I do hope you do. My little ones (and I to be honest) are exceedingly disappointed!

Thank you!

This explains why the line drawing results are so much better, when a cartoon image is created from a 3D object, rather than a 2D image. When making accurate line drawings from 2D images, most of the hard work and complexity involves intelligent recognition of which pixels belong to surfaces, and which surfaces are to be grouped as component parts of an object.

Image recognition The identification of objects in an image. This process would probably start with image processing techniques such as noise removal, followed by (low-level) feature extraction to locate lines, regions and possibly areas with certain textures. The clever bit is to interpret collections of these shapes as single objects, e.g. cars on a road, boxes on a conveyor belt or cancerous cells on a microscope slide. One reason this is an AI problem is that an object can appear very different when viewed from different angles or under different lighting. Another problem is deciding what features belong to what object and which are background or shadows etc. The human visual system performs these tasks mostly unconsciously but a computer requires skilful programming and lots of processing power to approach human performance.

Fortunately, the company’s titles are given away free. I wonder what kind of revenue has the company earned from those crappy software.

With regards to the above, I have tried the software and found it to me relatively simple to use. It is a scaled down interface of whatever Photoshop/GIMP/Photofiltre/Paint.Net has to offer.

If you want a fuss-free colouring book creator, this works. But it can still be done in the programmes above, albeit a bit more troublesome..

will probably uninstall now

the only downfall I see is the quality of the images is not to great
I can do this on photoshop-but this is fun also

thanks GAOTD
