Overview
ArcSoft Funhouse allows you to create unique, fun images by combining two or more photos together -- put your face on famous monuments, magazine covers, celebrity bodies, animation cells, or any other type of picture. Swap heads with family members, or put a friend's face on the family dog. Each template has one or more "masks"--areas that are cut out so that you can insert your own images. Typically, if there is a person involved, the mask will cover the face of that person so that it can be replaced with a face from one of your pictures. In addition to having these built-in templates, you can also create your own using your personal collection of digital images.
Installation
Insert the Funhouse CD into your CD-ROM drive. Take note as to where the program is installing, and where it can be found in the Start menu.
Note: If the installer does not start automatically, you will need to run it manually:
System Requirements
Windows: · Windows 98/ME/2000/XP · Pentium-based PC or equivalent · 150 MB free hard disk space · 64 MB RAM (128 MB recommended) · 16-bit color display at 800 x 600
1. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.
Starting the Program
1. Select Programs>ArcSoft Funhouse>Funhouse.
Note: Directories may vary from version to version. Step 3: Fine-Tune Even though your selected photos are inserted into the template, they likely need to be altered in a few ways so that they look like they're naturally part of the scene. From this screen, you can apply various edits and enhancements to each included image. Once you've selected an image, any changes you make will be applied to that image only. This command flips the selected image so that it looks like a mirror image.

These buttons make the selected image larger or smaller within the template. These buttons slightly rotate the selected image in the indicated direction. Use these buttons to move the selected image within the template. Alternately, you can click and drag the image directly on the preview. By enabling color matching, the program will apply a series of enhancements to make the tone of the inserted image match the tone of the template. The three sliders allow you to adjust the image brightness, contrast, and saturation (color intensity), respectively. You can zoom in and out on the selected inserted image by clicking the "+" and "" buttons. Use these buttons to capture an image from an attached video device directly into the template. [. . . ] The third button lets you adjust the settings specific to your selected device. Step 4: Add Text Add text to your scene to make it even more unique and personal. Type in your text in the text box, and choose your formatting options. If you
do so, you can click and drag the shadow within the preview box to place it any way you like. [. . . ]
