I think this new tool will be amazing: from sketch to photo

[Toni]

They've invented a new software that composes photos from a drawn sketch you feed to it. I think this has a lot of potential, specially for the no tech savvy. It may also ruin the world of photography... Think of all the possible horrible ideas...

I think I can't post links, so search Google for "sketch2photo". Or copy and paste this:

(If it is wrong that I post this, sorry! I think is relevant news... the only thing, is that it should be on the graphics forum, my bad!)

Looks pretty cool. Where's the actual software though, I couldn't find it?

I think they haven't released it yet, that's why I said "will be". Maybe they need more testing, want to sell it (Google, Adobe...), are working on a commercial software/site of their own...

Anyway, I expect this to be extremely popular. If it works as described. The possibilities are endless. And all you need is the idea and a sketch.

Pretty neat looking. I expect it could be sold to the folks at Photoshop for a good bit of money.
