Richmond, VA - April 15th, 1996.  Nova Design, Inc. announced today that 
ImageFX 2.6, the latest exciting upgrade to its universally acclaimed 
image processing and special effects package, would begin shipping by 
May. This new release adds many new astonishing special effects and new 
high-end features that have been available only to large studios and 
post-production houses previously.  Now these tools are available on the 
Amiga in ImageFX 2.6!  
 
"With this latest release of ImageFX, the techniques that were formerly 
the exclusive domain of high end/high dollar post production companies 
are now available for anyone's Amiga," said Kermit Woodall, vice president 
of Research and Design at Nova Design, Inc.  "What other packages have 
claimed is impossible to do on the Amiga is now possible."
 
 
Image Processing and Special Effects Made Easy
 
ImageFX 2.6 includes a number of technical breakthroughs and enhancements 
that allow users to easily create exciting special effects on single 
images or sequences using either the improved IMP and AutoFX programs 
included with ImageFX.  The new eff ects and functions that have been 
added allow quick "load it and do it" access to the basic effect, while 
providing a wealth of controls to allow near-infinite customization for 
the advanced user.  The new features include:
 
Complete Newtek Video Toaster/Flyer 4.1 Support.  Now loads and saves 
Toaster Framestores and Flyer Clips, and has the ability to framegrab, 
render and interactively preview your work directly on the Toaster's 
composite output.
 
Updated CyberGraphX Previewing.  Users of display cards using CyberGraphX 
software can now preview in any high color mode with full color realtime 
brush painting.  Additionally, CyberGraphX full color displays have been 
added to Cinemorph™, the Amiga most popular morphing package, and Viewtek, 
the popular image and animation viewer.
 
New Fargo FotoFun Support. The low-cost Fargo FotoFun printer can now be 
driven directly from ImageFX to produce 24-bit accurate color photographic-
like output.
 
Hewlett-Packard Scanjet IIc/3c/4c Support.  Now all the latest Hewlett-
Packard scanners can be driven by ImageFX on most Amiga SCSI cards.
 
Newtek Digiviewr Support.  The Amiga's legacy of excellent hardware is not 
forgotten with the addition of support for Newtek's slowscan video 
digitizer; Digiview.  
 
New Wireless Program. This new program joins the ImageFX suite to provide 
sophisticated wire removal capabilities.  You can now remove wires holding 
actors or objects suspended in the air so you can make your super heros fly.
 
Updated Effects. ImageFX's ever popular Lightning now has multiple bolts 
and even more options than ever before. The Shear, Straw and Composite 
functions have been upgraded along with many other improvements throughout.
 
New Effects.  Many new special effects have been added in this release of
