SPG Releases The First 32-Bit OS/2 Image Editor, ColorWorks for OS/2

MIAMI, Fl., December 28, 1994 -- SPG has announced today it is shipping
ColorWorks for OS/2, the most advanced graphics image editor ever
developed for the Computer Artist or Designer, and the ultimate frame
processor for Multimedia, Desktop Publishing and Presentation
applications. ColorWorks is a 32-bit multi-tasking, multi-threaded
application that offers core technology, speed of operation, and valuable
features far beyond that delivered by the current 16-bit, single threaded,
Macintosh or Windows based image editors.

ColorWorks' configurable tool architecture yields many thousands of
possible drawing tools and the most flexible way to define floated images.
In Draw Mode, any drawing tool can be configured to draw with a color, any
effect or a combination of multiple effects. In Mask Mode, any drawing
tool can be used as a selection tool to define a mask for application of
effects and transformations.

ColorWorks has a powerful set of professional Photo Retouching Effects,
unique Filter Labs, Special Effects, multiple methods of Warping, and Free
Form Distortion Mapping. In addition, any effect can be used by itself or
in combination with any number of other effects you choose. There are
literally millions of different effect combinations.

ColorWorks offers 255 levels of undo per canvas, the ability to drag and
drop images between canvases, provides for ultra-precise image editing by
enabling you to change a canvas' magnification level while you are in the
middle of a drawing operation, and enables users to become their own
plug-in effects developer without having to be a programmer!

For power users, ColorWorks can be set to dynamically divide drawing tasks
to up to 64 processors, for huge linear increases in performance. This
advanced parallel processing architecture (named SMP Smart Threading)
increases total program performance, all effects, using the multiple
processors of a Symmetric Multi-Processing system. SMP Smart Threading
eliminates the need to spend money on expensive DSP boards that speed up
only a handful of effects of a single program.

Also for power users, ColorWorks' unique DIMIC (Dynamic In-Memory Image
Compression) can reduce the RAM requirements of editing images by up to
90%, allowing you to edit large "workstation size" images on a PC! This
revolutionary technology of editing compressed data, renders obsolete,
cumbersome schemes of editing tiny portions or low resolution copies of
large images to later "play back" into the real image using a macro
recorder.

ColorWorks for OS/2 SRP is $495.
