Recolored Editor's Review

'Recolored' is not the best name for this program, because it only describes one of its features. Besides coloring black and white pictures, it can also replace colors of individual objects or selectively change the saturation of color pictures.

If you have some old black-and-white pictures and you want to see how they used to look like, you need to identify the objects in the picture and the corresponding colors and then you can recolor them very easily. You just need to circle the object in the picture with similar color lines. After that, you have to press the colorize button placed on the toolbar or simply press the C key on your keyboard. To help you, the producer added a few predefined colors for several things that might appear in a picture like metals, jeans, grass, stones, wood, sky, water, eyes, hair, or skin.

While testing the program I was impressed by the results. First, I tried the program with a very old picture and it was a little difficult, but after seeing the provided tutorials, all became much easier. It seems that this program has a near perfect processing algorithm and the results are excellent. Then I changed the color of an object without interfering with the environment of that picture. The colorizing process doesn't take very long to complete.

Pluses: It gives very nice results and it's simple to use.

Drawbacks / flaws:

In conclusion: It's one of the best programs I've seen. It's not as complex as other image processing programs, but it's cheaper and its features work better. I enjoyed testing this program.
