You need your Web pages to look professional. However, you don’t want to learn complicated graphics programs and don’t want the graphics creation process to be time consuming.
NetStudio 1.0 is the first Web picture processor, a new category of tools designed to help Webmasters, business users, and others create all the graphics needed for their Web pages. A Web picture processor is not a paint program like other traditional graphics applications. It is more like a word processor for pictures.
Everything about NetStudio is optimized to dramatically simplify and speed up Web graphics tasks. Within minutes, you will have great looking, fully customized graphics ready for placement into your Web pages. NetStudio is:
NetStudio’s user interface looks and acts just like other Microsoft Windows® applications. Anyone familiar with word processors will already know how to use NetStudio.
NetStudio is built from the ground up for creating Web graphics. It takes common multi-step Web graphics tasks and condenses them down to single clicks of the mouse. You can create a banner with one click, give it a title with another click, and add professional looking special effects with a final click of the mouse. From start to finish you can create a professional quality Web graphic in less than twenty seconds.
NetStudio integrates with Microsoft Frontpage, Adobe Pagemill, Netscape Composer, and other popular Web editing tools. Double-clicking on a graphic in a Web page editor automatically opens the graphic for editing in NetStudio. You can preview entire Web pages within NetStudio to see your new graphics in context and to apply new styles to every graphic on your page. Changes made in your Web page editor are automatically shown in NetStudio.
You will be particularly pleased to find that, due to the unique NetStudio Change Anytime™ engine, graphics are always editable. Each and every visual effect applied to a NetStudio graphic can be removed or modified at the push of a button. NetStudio graphics remain fully editable even after they have been placed into Web pages.
The user interface is designed to be familiar to anyone who has used Microsoft Office. People unfamiliar with graphic arts programs will easily understand NetStudio’s menu items and tool icons. If you use Office, you know how to use NetStudio.
With NetStudio you can create and preview fully customizable JavaScript hover buttons. You can edit and preview all button states within NetStudio at any time.
NetStudio has unlimited "undo" and "redo". Each edit or change can be removed. You can remove the changes one by one, or all at once. Additionally, NetStudio preserves the original structure of its graphics files. This allows users to go back and remove or re-apply individual visual effects even after saving the file as a JPEG, GIF, or PNG, and inserting it into a Web page.
A single click on a tool button creates a banner, fancy text, button, background, or navigation bar. Clicking a special effects button on the tool bar applies a transparency fade, washout, new color, embossing, and more. If you wish to fine-tune, you can alter visual effects through simple, intuitive control panels.
NetStudio includes a large library of Web page Styles. Styles create a quick way for you to standardize the look for each type of page element. You can apply a style to an entire Web page or to individual pictures. You can quickly create styles by choosing "Save as Style" from the File menu.
NetStudio includes a large collection of predefined Web graphics that users can choose from when creating new banners, buttons, or other Web pictures. Templates provide great starting points for creating new graphics. All NetStudio templates are fully customizable.
The colors, fonts, effects, and layouts of Styles can be individually applied to your Web pages. For example, you could choose the colors from the Academic Style, and the fonts from Business Style to create a totally custom, professional look.
NetStudio remembers your formatting decisions. The next time you create a new graphic, it looks exactly like the last one you created. For example, fancy text for titles and headings can look 100% consistent throughout your Web site with no extra work.
New banners, buttons, and navigation bars come pre-built with placeholders for entering text.
Drop a picture onto a placeholder, and the entire placeholder style is applied to the new picture. With picture placeholders, inserting an image is an easy one-click operation.
Drop a picture onto an object or block of text to fill it with that picture. This click and drag functionality is a huge time saver over creating the same effect in traditional image editing applications.
In Web Preview mode you can open existing HTML files. Changes made to individual graphics can be immediately previewed in the context of the existing Web page. You can also make and preview global changes applied to the entire Web page.
Rectangles, ovals, and lines are inserted with a single click on the tool bar. Apply visual effects to shapes and use them to quickly assemble business diagrams.
NetStudio automatically uses only those colors that look the same in every Web browser on every platform.
NetStudio automatically chooses the best file format (GIF or JPG) for new pictures.
NetStudio automatically cuts off unused white space when saving a picture.
