ACDSee Holiday Deals!
ACDSee’s holiday sale has started!
There are currently 3 sales going on:
We will start at the bottom of their ad and move up:
- Buy 1 copy of ACDSee Photo Manager and a receive a second licensed ACDSee Photo Manager on CD, along with a 1GB Sandisk SD card for $59.99.
- Buy the ACDSee Bundle of ACDSee Photo Manager and Photo Editor for the regular price of $79.99 and you will receive free a second licensed ACDSee Photo Manager on CD and the Four Seasons Digital Scrapbook Kits CD.
- The last one is for those wanting RAW file processing. But ACDSee Pro 2 for $129.99 and get Naneu Pro Media Wallet and a second licensed ACDSee Pro 2 on CD
So this is how it works for this deal. If you make a purchase, you will receive one email with a license number (immediately) and the CD will be mailed to you. The CD has the second license number on it. Last time ACDSee did this 2 for 1 sale, people found friends and they purchased it together. One person got the emailed license and the second used the trial until CD arrived at their house with the second license. So knowing you might want to find friends, we created a thread for you to help find “friends” to do this with: Looking for a friend to purchase ACDSee with together?

Selective coloring in ACDSee is SO easy now! Before ACDSee 10 in order to achieve this I had to use masks in ACDSee Photo Editor.
Watch how easy this is to do in both ACDSee 10 & ACDSee Pro 2!
- Open your photo in ACDSee by double clicking on the thumbnail.
- Use the pull down menu on the Palette Icon & choose Edit Mode
A new pane opens on the left
- Click on Selections
- With Freehand Lasso tool selected, draw around the item
- stay fairly close, but it doesn’t have to be exact.
- when you get back to where you started the selection will be made
- Click on Invert, Click on Done if you’re satisfied with your selection
Click on the Color - in the left pane & this is when the magic happens!
- Move the Saturation slider to the left to desaturate the background
To make up for the area around the image, on the top
- Move the slider for the Feathering to the right.
- Decide what looks the most natural.
- Click on Done
This will bring you back to the Main Menu of the Edit Panel
- Click on Finished Editing at the bottom

ACDSee Photo Manager 10 was recently released with a number of new features.
ACDSee Photo Manager is da Bomb!
Pm 10 is da bomb! Since the release of Photo Manager 10, digi-scrappers around the ‘net have been buzzing about it’s new features.
Some of the favorites being talked about are:
Calendar
I downloaded the trial to test it out after our ACDSee chat and had to go for the upgrade. The pop up feature is too cool. That is probably the best thing. I think there are new ways to view and sort too. I have been meaning to try the calendar out. Probably will be happy if I ever get around to scrapping!

Extracting
I have the trial right now (but I will be sure to upgrade before the month is over). I’m really liking it. Love being able to unzip files from within ACDSee!

Pop-up Thumbnail Preview
I have upgraded to ACDsee Photo Manager 10 and have to say the new features are fantastic! I love how a the pop up comes up when you move the cursor over you gallery, i love that you can unzip more than one file! ACDsee rocks! There is still so much more about it yet untaped by me, but it was truely worth the investment!

Uploading
I am really really glad I upgraded to version 10, some y great new features. But the one I LOVE LOVE LOVE is being able to upload to SmugMug from within ACDsee. I store my layouts on SmugMug for my family to see (and as an added backup source). It is TONS quicker to upload thru ACDsee. Worth the price of the upgrade for me with just that one feature
From *becki* at scrapbook-bytes.com
Despite what they each claim is their fave new feature, all of the comments have a common thread- the ease of keeping that ever-growing digi-stash neat and organized and ready to be scrapped with. And who doesn’t love that? Add that into the idea that Photo Manager 10 helps you get a lot more time scrapping, instead of searching, people are calling this program a keeper.
Premade Digital Scrapbooking Categories available for ACDSee 10!
All those premade digital scrapbooking categories are updated for ACDSee 10.

Also, I would love to add more organizing styles (pre-made categories) to my list. If you would like to share, please email me digiscrapinfo@gmail.com. It only take about 2 minutes to do sharing process and only your categories are shared, nothing else. And we aren’t looking for the best, we are looking for a variety of them to allow people to have choices on how they want to get started organizing!
Here is the ACDSee 10 New Features list in one place! I will try add more images, screenshots, & videos as time permits.
