Fotoxx 13.02 Allows Now To Convert An Image Into Cartoon-like Drawing (More Features) - Ubuntu/Linux Mint

Fotoxx has been updated to version 13.02 bringing more new features and improvements. Fotoxx is an image editor that allows users to perform various adjustments and effects on their images.

 Fotoxx 13.02 has added the following features:

• Color space conversion is supported using LCMS (e.g. Adobe RGB <--> sRGB)

• A photo of a page in a thick book can be squared and flattened; the print is stretched out where the page curves down at the binding.

• A photo can be converted into a cartoon-like drawing.

• The thumbnail gallery view has three sort options: file name, file mod date, and photo date (EXIF).

• Metadata is kept when a RAW file is converted to TIFF/JPEG/PNG

• Brightness distribution graph allows selection of colors, and reflects only the visible part of a zoomed image.

• Some bugs were fixed
