This is my first upload so bare with me, I just want to give something to this great community in return.
This is an easy-to-use morphing WINDOWS stand alone and old software (2012) for the creation of photo morphing pictures and animation effects that I'm trying to use as alternative to Plotagraph while trying to produce something in the George Redhawk's kind of fashion (google his animated gifs, you will not be disappointed). Tested in Windows 10 64 bits, everything seems clean and functioning as expected.
Thanks to team CORE, I did nothing but stumbling with this and sharing, all the credit goes to them. Props.
