3. Adobe Photoshop
With the power of Photoshop, yo can create each and every image effect ever existed in this planet.There are more than a hundred techniques to get an Instagram like effect using Photoshop.To get the nashville effect (retro/vintage), you have to play with curves and brightness of it.But I know you are feeling lazy to do that.
Here is the “PSD”, using which you can make instagram effect by doing nothing !
Lets see how to use it:
Open the PSD file, and also open and drag your desired image to the PSD File.Then, drag your Image layer below all layers.
After this, you will get this type of effect :
Conclusion
All these methods are simple and easy but InstantRetro has a drawback, that it is a very slow tool and can take over 25 seconds to apply one effect !
Adobe Photoshop is the best way, as you can adjust the curves and levels, which you cannot do in other two methods.But, not everyone can afford it, its too expensive ($699).
So, Pixlr-O-Matic is the best method toAdd Instagram Effects To Your Photos, which is easy to use, fast and free.
