HP Photo Creations Editor's Review

Create stunning photo projects with this multiplatform digital photo printing app.

Digital photos...EVERYONE is taking them. Everyone is sharing them. Everyone is, well...wondering just what the heck to do WITH them once their taken. This is one of the reasons why I really like applications like HP Photo Creations – Image Zone. It’s a multi-platform digital photo creation app.

HP Photo Creations is free software that lets you easily create photo books, calendars, collages, greeting cards and other keepsakes that can be printed at home or shipped to you. With HP Photo Creations, you can quickly and easily make beautiful keepsakes with just a few mouse clicks; or you can take your time and customize them.  The application has over 1,800 high quality artwork designs, 1,300 placeable graphics, text boxes, custom fonts, borders, and dozens of photo editing tools.

With HP Photo Creations, you can easily create cards, calendars, photo books, and much more. You can customize your projects with backgrounds, styled text, hundreds of graphics and thousands of border styles. Drawing experience from film, television, and special effects, when you choose the Automatic Smart Arrangement option, the software analyzes your photos and arranges them into colorful, multi-layered designs that truly tell your story.

HP Photo Creations allows you to personalize almost every aspect of your project using text and graphics. You can use effects such as tinting, blending and airbrushing. Best of all, you can instantly add your design to any item and the real-time 3D preview will show you exactly how your finished project will look—there's no need to start over.

Pros: Free, easy and fun to use, home and "ship to" printing options

Cons: Your PC will need processing power to apply all included effects

Conclusion: HP Photo Creations - Image Zone is a lot of fun to use. The fact that projects can be printed at home or for shipment to your home is cool. This means you can purchase hard cover photo books and can truly preserve your memories for years and generations to come.
