Transforming Digital Pixels to Paper Pages PicsArt effects transform your photos with a stroke of the finger. We have used four effects from the Paper section of the Effects Menu to demonstrate how the same photo can be edited using PicsArt's preset effects. These effects give the illusions that your photo was printed on paper, and the results have a wonderful tactile and nostalgic feel that is a sharp departure from digital HD images. Sometimes as an artist, you want your photo to look retro or old-style, and these effects harken back to the age of print, when there were pages in place of glowing screens. @darkm With PicsArt, this can be achieved with the ease of scrolling through a menu, allowing you to experiment, explore, and even customize each effect individually until it looks perfect. Nothing is permanent until you apply and save it, so let your imagination be your limit.
