ID Photo Maker

If you want to make your own ID or passport photos, you must take certain standards into account. The photo's height and width must have precise dimensions and you should not lean to the left or right in the picture. Instead of measuring and aligning the photo manually, you can use ID Photo Maker to adjust it much faster. The software provides step by step instructions, just like a wizard, and a variety of picture formats, from different countries.

ID Photo Maker can be used on Windows 2000, XP, Vista and Windows 7. The low system requirements allow you to install and use the program even on outdated machines. Furthermore, you don't have to install additional tools or services before running the application.

Obviously, the first step is to load one or more pictures. The software allows you to select an images folder, on your hard drive, import pictures from a digital camera or use a webcam to take a new snapshot. Once you decide which picture you want to edit, ID Photo Maker will provide you with the necessary tools, in logical order.

Before you get started, you must select a country and a picture format. While processing your photos, you will notice that the entire procedure is very straightforward. First, you must click on the subject's eyes with a crosshair. Next you must place separate guide lines, beneath his chin and above his hair. Performing these simple tasks will align and crop your picture automatically.

Once the picture is properly aligned and cropped, you can make a series of final adjustments, like changing the brightness, contrast or gamma levels, balancing colors or changing the background color. Finally, you can decide how to print or save your pictures. The software allows you to choose from a variety of layouts and you may click and drag your adjusted photos on a selected template or click an option to insert your pictures automatically.
