ENHANCE

After watching a dozen episodes of CSI (and Super Troopers) I realized that it would be fun to make a photo enhancing application that always results in a perfect image like on the show. Sadly, I don't have the know-how to write such an app so I made the next best thing. ENHANCE blurs the image and by clicking the ENHANCE button it removes some of the blur until you get back to the unblurred image.

[edit] Running ENHANCE

For this to work you need to have pygtk and PIL (python imaging library) installed. For Debian/Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install python-imaging python-glade2 python-gtk2

For Fedora:

su -c "yum install python-imaging pygtk2-libglade pygtk2"

Once you've installed the required packages do the following to download and run:

# Go to your Desktop
cd ~/Desktop
# Download the tarball
wget http://nikosapi.org/software/ENHANCE.tar.bz2
# Extract the files
tar xvf ENHANCE.tar.bz2
# Change to the extracted directory
cd ENHANCE
# Make ENHANCE.py executable (if it isn't already)
chmod +x ENHANCE.py
# Run the program
./ENHANCE.py
