Just copy the custom presets from that location on the old machine to the same location on the new machine after installing ToonIt on the new machine. All your presets should work just as before!
Color Flow only works with colors that have 100% in the Saturation component of HSB colorspace. This means that when you open up the Color Picker to pick a new color, the color has to have 100% as its ‘S’ value. (It can’t be 99, it must be 100.) This makes happy, bright, fully saturated colors.
It's possible that ToonIt! will work with Paint Shop. However, we do not test or provide support for that host application. You can download and try out the ToonIt! demo. If the demo works, then the purchased version will work too.
Yes, ToonIt! works nicely for that kind of photograph. This cartooning plugin is terrific at transforming the human or animal face and form into a cartoon. For instance, if you look on our ToonIt Gallery page, the artist Nick Cattermole has done some nice work with monkeys in India.
ToonIt! does NOT work with RAW files. One of two things will happen. You may be able to apply ToonIt! to the file but the cartooned results will look odd. (See example at right.) Or Aperture may crash completely when you apply ToonIt!. You will need to convert RAW files to a different format, like TIFF or JPEG, before running the image through ToonIt!.
The crosshatch lines that appear are the demo watermark. This allows you to evaluate ToonIt! Photo before purchasing. When you purchase the plugin, you get a serial number will unlock the crosshatch watermark.
Since every image is different, the presets won't have the same effect. Sometimes they will come out as expected, sometimes you will need to tweak them a bit, and sometimes they just won't work for a given image.
In general, the presets are designed to work with an image that is a well lit face, with a dark or simple background, and not much detail in the clothing. The further away you get from that imagery -- like a subject in shadow with a bright background -- the less likely the preset will produce an expected result.

The Preview Window is just a preview. If you want to see exactly what the image is going to look like once rendered in Adobe Photoshop, you need to have the preview at 100% (which will slow you down somewhat).
If there's a difference between Preview at 100% and the final render, that's a problem. But ToonIt! Photo is based on the pixels in the image and applying the cartoon effect to a 1000x1000 image vs. a 500x500 (50% and a lot less pixels) image will yield slightly different results.
Read moreToonIt! Photo is a quality vs. speed effect. It simply requires a lot of processing to create the desired cartoon effect. Other cartooning effects use glorified Posterization algorithms to create their results.
This runs pretty fast but doesn't create as sophisticated a look. ToonIt! Photo provides pretty spectacular results and again, which is why its Preview and Render times are often quite high.
Some tips for speeding up the render: Some factors that make ToonIt! Photo run faster are working in RGB instead of CMYK and working in 8-bit instead of 16-bit. We have found in our tests that ToonIt! Photo will run faster in Photoshop CS4 than Photoshop CS3, though this is dependant in part on your computer specs. Still, it's important to keep in mind that you need a little patience to work with ToonIt! Photo.
We are committed to improving the preview and render times as ToonIt! Photo matures, and already have some plans for optimizations in the very near future. However, we are even more firmly committed to making sure that the quality of the results are rivaled only by manual rotoscoping. The high quality results are what make it stand out and makes the product worth using.
