“Consumers are especially interested in more editing tools and more creative options,” explains Smith. “So the new EASYSHARE Software lets you easily remove blemishes and wrinkles using the Facial Retouch function. We’ve also bundled EASYSHARE Software with ArcSoft Print Creations, giving consumers access to hundreds of creative choices for bringing their favorite memories back into their lives.”
