Photo to Sketch v3.5 Standard Edition

review from ClifNotes, Sep 2007, permalink Image Effects and Filters

I found this program in a list of file conversion software. This is a free version of a more complete professional package, but I feel it can be useful for it's own features alone.

The program installed easily and it doesn't appear to have any nasty "buy the pro version" ads in it. I used it to convert a small picture of myself into a sketch and I was mostly pleased with what it does.
