Chasys Draw IES

Chasys Draw IES is a suite of applications including a layer-based image editor with animation, icon editing support and super-resolution via image stacking (Chasys Draw IES Artist), a multi-threaded image file converter (Chasys Draw IES Converter), a fast image viewer (Chasys Draw IES Viewer) and a RAW camera file processor (Chasys Draw IES raw-Photo). The whole suite is UAC aware and is designed to take advantage of multi-core processors, touch-screens and pen-input devices.

"amazingly flexible, amazingly powerful"

Chasys Draw IES is built to adhere to three core principles, which I call the "three pillars" of Chasys Draw IES:

Character: No photoshop imitations here.
Performance: Fast, efficient and stable.
Innovation: New techniques and out-of-the-box thinking.

The adherence to these principles is the reason why it is said that once you go Chasys you will never go back.
