FotoSketcher 3.96 is officially released (Windows version - can work on MacOS with Apple CPU)

 

Hi all!

FotoSketcher 3.96 for Windows is now officially released!

Head over to https://fotosketcher.com/download-fotosketcher/ to download either the standalone version (no need to install, just run the .exe file) or the version with setup.

For MacOS users (with M1, M2, M3 or M4 Apple processors), FotoSketcher for Windows can run on your Mac ;)

You first need to install the free program Whisky avalaible here: https://getwhisky.app/ 

Once installed, download the Windows version of FotoSketcher and execute it on your Mac. It works well and fast.

Here is a list of changes and improvements in this release:

  • new user interface, with a more modern look and improved legibility 
  • the list of effects is now more compact, allowing for more effects to be added in the future without having a huge dropdown list
  • fixed a bug where the print preview would not update
  • various stability and speed enhancements
  • texture can now be more fine tuned (from 0% to 100%)
  • new Pencil Sketch 6 effect as shown below

 

A here is a screenshot of the new UI:

Painting 9 and Pencil Sketch 6 combined using "Merge source and result images" (in miscellaneous effects). 

As always, FotoSketcher is 100% free to use, even commercially (if you wish to sell your artwork for instance).

Enjoy :)

All the best,

David

This tool is really amazing, with generative AIs it is not possible to achieve this result. It is a far superior tool to others of this style and this update shows that it has not lost its relevance and continues to be a novel tool.
Thank you very much for your great work.

Hey david, been playing around with the app and found a 2 things I use alot but has not followed over in the update. 1 Painting 10 does not have its x2, which honestly created some very nice styles and id love to continue to see more of. 2 The frame, textures, and margins tab is broken and does not work. Thank you for all the great work you do!

Hi,
Thanks for your feedback. I have indeed removed the x2 checkbox for Painting 10, thinking it was almost never used, but your comment proves me wrong ;) I'll put it back in the next release.
As for the frames and textures, I don't see where the problem is. Can you send me some screenshots at contact@fotosketcher.com?
