3D Photos

Three dimensional photos are nothing new, but in the past they have been quite crude and simple with a main foreground object, like a person or pet, projecting out from the rest of the picture.

Things have moved on though and aside from paying for the transposition of a standard photo into 3D, you can now buy software for your PC that does the very same thing – and displays it on your high definition monitor.

This kind of technology is still in its relative infancy and the conversion of 2D to 3D is far from perfect. Even so, very good results can be obtained and from comparatively cheep software.

3D Galleries
Another variation of this 3D theme, but one that you can only use on your digital equipment, is to create a 3D gallery.

You can see some examples of this at http://www.mypictures3d.com/galleries.html, but in essence you are able to hang your favourite picture in a range of amazing 3D environments that include the interiors and facades of building, plus nature scenes and some spectacular futuristic creations.

Many of these 3D galleries can also be saved or converted into 3D wallpaper of even screen savers for your PC.
