Change colors

 Answer by: Frédérique Taillefer, Aplus.Net Knowledge Base Support.

With the Aplus.Net Image Manipulation tool found on the Aplus.Net Control Panel, you can select between 5 color effects for your images:

Grayscale: This effect converts your image to a grayscale format. On a color image, it will discard all color information and produce an output image with the full range of gray color hues. If your image is already grayscaled, this effect will most likely produce no results.

Sharpen: This effect will fill your image with a soft brown color making it look like an old photography.

Sepia: This effect will fill your image with a soft brown color making it look like an old photography.

Negative: This effect makes your picture look like a film negative by inverting all its colors.

Blur: This filter softens the image, and is useful for retouching. It smooths transitions by averaging the pixels next to hard edges of lines and shaded areas in an image.
