ShadeMagic view
Here is an answer to web graphics creators who wanted to work with more sophisticated pieces of gradient patterns. Just a single click on the toolbar button will fill text with gradient pattern by cutting out the area where text overlaps an image. You can also add text to an image and retouch it much more easily than the previous version.
Sample: Text filled with gradient pattern
Sample: Gradient background
VERSION 2.1 - IMPROVEMENTS:
  • Adding and retouching text to an image became much easier than the previous version.
  • The New Image and Resize buttons were separated.
  • You can set an aspect ratio when resizing the image.
VERSION 2.02 - IMPROVEMENTS:
  • Easier access to the menu items to set the wallpaper.
  • A version checker was added.
