“Create original, fun posters from your own photos”

by Elena Santos

Poster Forge is a fun tool that enables you to create posters with your own digital pictures in a very easy way. Unlike other similar tools, which only create larger versions of the image for you to print out, Poster Forge adds some cool effects that can turn any picture into a motivational poster, movie poster or a Far West "Wanted" style poster.

The program's interface is divided into three tabs (one for each kind of poster) and includes all the tools you need to customize them. Simply add a picture, type in any text you want, tweak a few settings and you're pretty much done. Unfortunately, there were things I couldn't customize, such as font size. Also, even though there's a tool to move the picture around and make it fit better, it's very limited and sometimes the picture needs to be cropped with a third-party app.

Once finished, the poster can be saved as an image file or conveniently printed as a poster with the built-in printing tool, which enables you to optimize poster printing and make them easier to assemble.

Turn your photos into original posters very easily and in just a few minutes.

From the publisher of Poster Forge

Poster Forge is a new software tool that allows you to quickly make your own inspirational, motivational, movie or old west "Wanted" posters without any efforts and totally for free! With the help of a special built-in utility, you can print big size posters and hang them on the wall. What is more, you can publish your new posters in the Internet (Myspace, Livejournal, Flickr, etc.). Don’t wait, put your creative ideas in your new posters with Poster Forge at any time, any place and share them with your friends and colleagues!

Poster Forge doesn’t require any knowledge of graphics or design and enables users to create posters in clicks. This software has a step-by-step wizard for each type of posters. What makes it even more convenient is the possibility to preview the results while you are creating a new poster. Each detail in a template can be customized according to your wishes. For example, making a movie poster, you can insert the release date, presentation of the company and actors cast, like in a real film advertisement. Or, in creating an old western "Wanted" poster, you can specify the criminal name and the sum of reward – an excellent idea for a funny joke on your friend who you haven’t seen for ages or a colleague who is always late for business meetings. The last thing to do is to save or print the created poster.
