Featured Product-iCorrect®
EditLab Pro Plug-in
The Photoshop® Color Correction Standard for
6 Years!
Frustration-Free Color Correction with
Professional Results
iCorrect EditLab Pro Plug-in was first introduced in
2002 at version 2.0 by our parent company,
Pictographics
International. It was based on Pictographics
proprietary ICC Color Management technology
that employs complex 3 dimensional non-linear algorithms
to Make the Color Right. That's probably more that you
wanted to know, but it is what makes PictoColor's color
correction technology unique in the industry. When you
correct color using an iCorrect product you are, in
essence, "fixing the profile" of the picture to make it
right. Even though the technology "under the hood" is
complex using it is not. "Great Color Made
Simple" was the title of one of the first EditLab
reviews by
Chris Daniels in the November 2002 issue of Shutterbug
Magazine.
Version 2.0 was followed by 3.0, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0 and
5.5, the current version. With each new version we added
new and enhanced technology and workflow tools, but our
primary objective remained the same: Make
Professional Color Correction Easy and Fast.
"iCorrect EditLab Pro Makes Color Correction a Breeze!"
is how Lisa Snider King titles her review in
Macworld.
"With Adobe Photoshop’s proven ability to perform feats
of color magic, you might think a color-correction
plug-in would be overkill. Not so. Even for color
experts, the process of correcting color can be
time-consuming and frustrating because of the many
problems and methods of correction, and because fixing
one detail can throw off another.
PictoColor’s iCorrect EditLab Pro Photoshop Plug-in
is geared toward digital photographers and anyone else
who appreciates optimal color. It makes correcting RGB
images a breeze, and its interface offers as much or as
little assistance as you need."

Jim Hoerricks, a

has quickly become one of my favorite tools." Jim
uses has written a review on iCorrect EditLab Pro
Plug-in which you can read by going to

iCorrect EditLab Pro consists of four
separate tool panels identified by four distinctly
numbered tabs. The four panels are logically
arranged from left to right and offer a wizard-like
approach to accurate color.
The tools are
designed in such a way that as you progress from left to
right, the tools will not, and in fact cannot
affect any of the tools to its left. This
alleviates the common frustration of correcting for one
thing while throwing off another. With iCorrect EditLab
Pro, one pass through the tools and you are
finished. Plus, each tool has an optional
SmartColor button which analyzes the image and sets
the correction parameters to initial recommended
settings.
