Advertisement Every Mac that comes with an iSight is loaded with. Design home app. When I was Mac-less, I used to frequent Apple stores and somehow Photo Booth seemed to appeal to me then. Sadly, after I bought a Mac for myself, the attraction didn’t last very long and later, I sort of forgot about this nifty application which attracted me in the first place. To bring back the romance, I went on a search to see if I could add more effects to Photo Booth.
There were only a few interesting pre-packaged ones and most of them had something to do with image distortion (squeeze, bulge, dent, mirror etc.). That was fun for a while but I need the “Wow” factor back desperately. In my search, I managed to uncover a few sites that offer a good collection of free Photo Booth effects. From B-L-A-C-K-O-P, I found, which is a collection of 5 sets of effects. Each set has its own theme:• RetroPixels – adaptation of 60’s and 70’s video effects.
• Love For 80s – bringing back Space Invaders, Pong and VHS (yes, that’s video tape quality, ladies and gentlemen!). • Bent Pels – optical image distortion with a twist. • BoobToob – a set of TV screen effects.
The Mac is still the best device for serious photo editing, so you need some serious photo editing apps to make an impact. The built-in Photos app on Mac offers several useful photo editing tools. You can crop, adjust lighting and color, set the white balance, add filters, remove unwanted blemishes, and a few more things. You can add a nice vignette effect to any picture, image, or photo kept in the Photos app on the Mac. The vignette tool allows for adjustments and customizations for the strength of the pictures vignetting effect, which is basically a dark soft border along the edges of a picture intended to draw the viewers focus to the center of a picture. As you can see above, you can choose to capture your photo or video first and then add effects and more, or tap the star effects button to the left of the shutter button to add some before hand.

New Planet Effect On Earth
• FewTile – tiled-images effect. I especially like the BoobToob set, it makes me feel like I’m on television. If you’re sick or bored with the default Photo Booth effects, this will definitely bring back some fun. In order to remove unwanted effects, just delete them from the appropriate folder. Keep in mind that if you add a lot of new effects at once, Photo Booth will crash while loading them. It’s best to add one set at a time. Also, these effects will work with iChat!
So, you can fool your friends into thinking that something’s gone wonky with your iSight or that they’re really seeing you through a hologram. Got more effects to share?
