Guifx is very pleased to announce that its popular Logo Tools software (the beta was downloaded over 25,000 times) is out of beta and available for immediate download. Building on the solid foundation of the software’s beta period, the final release of Logo Tools v1.0 boasts dozens of feature upgrades and software fixes. Logo Tools can be downloaded for free from the Guifx Utilities section of www.guifx.com.

Logo Tools v1.0 takes flexibility to a whole new level. Users can now load their own button images and composite them with any other images they choose. Guifx’s new Luminvert™ technology has been incorporated to insure the images look their best even when compositing a dark logo with a dark button.

All image compositions and setting changes are visible in real-time with the newly added Preview Window. Simply select a custom preview color or textured background to preview how images will look before exporting them. Additionally, the built in Autocrop functionality serves to insure perfectly centered logos, every time.

Some of the upgraded system features now include full PNG transparency support as well as the ability to install and access Logo Tools from a network drive.

I’m pleased to announce that we’ve received the proper authorization to begin marketing RTI Templates. As an official RTI Integration Partner, Guifx has the resources to push the hardware beyond their known limits. Templates are currently in production and are scheduled for release in September.

Yes. Logo Tools is finally out of beta and it’s awesome. We’ve added new button styles including versions with LED indicators to denote active and inactive states. We’ve added a variety of sizes too. But most importantly, you can now load any image as a button style and preview all the options in real-time. Use any graphic — any size. Our new Luminvert technology makes it possible.

Logo Tools, which has been downloaded over 25,000 times, is by far the leading tool used for creating favorite channel buttons. We’ve seen it used for other things too.
