Colorizing your black and white photos is a fun process. You get to breathe life into your old photos and the best part about it is that you can do it in a few seconds. While you are doing that, it is possible that you end up colorizing the same photos, resulting in duplicates.
In this article, we have compiled a list of some tools that will help you colorize your photos and delete the duplicates at the same time. Let’s begin.
Top Colorizing Tools
Color Surprise AI by Pixbim
Color Surprise AI by Pixbim is probably the best software on the list that automatically adds color to your black and white photos. The software features artificial intelligence that is designed to detect and differentiate between living and non-living objects to add colors accordingly. It is an easy-to-use software that does the job in only three steps. First, you download and install the software and then upload the image. The software will preview two variants of the same image side by side. Now click Start-Process and the software will produce a colored version of the picture or pictures within seconds.
Adobe Photoshop
The second-best option on the list is Adobe Photoshop. You must be familiar with the software that has reigned the world of photo editing for long. Not only does it add colors to your photos with ease but also offers many other options. However, the only downside to it is that it is not for amateurs. The only way you are going to get your way around it is if you spend some time getting the heck of it. Otherwise, it will give you a hard time colorizing even a single photo.
Algorithima
Algorithmia is an online colorizing tool that colorizes your greyscale photos. It utilizes an algorithm-based system that detects photos with the help of deep learning and adds colors accordingly. It is a user-friendly software that does not require downloading. However, it will add a watermark to the photos you colorize. Furthermore, sometimes the resolution might also not be preserved. Overall, it is a reasonably balanced software that will get the job done instantly.
Colorize Photo
Colorize Photo is a website where you upload your black and white photos and then manually edit them using the tools provided. Although it will take a considerable amount of time to adjust each aspect of the image, the good thing about it is that Colorize Photo is an online platform that is absolutely free. Moreover, it also preserves the input and output image size.
How to Delete Duplicates?
Now that you are done colorizing your photos, it is time to delete the duplicates created in the process. Luckily, deleting the duplicates is as easy as colorizing your photos using the tools mentioned above.
PictureEcho is a handy program that allows you to locate duplicate pictures and delete them within seconds. As you can see in the screenshot below, it offers a very easy-to-use interface and several scanning options. You can organize your images, scan for duplicates on your PC, clean empty folders and even scan by image as well. The only thing you need to do is click Add Path to add the scan location and then click Start Search to launch the scan. Once the duplicate images are detected, PictureEcho will display a list including their size, location, and type. Now you can either manually select the duplicates or use the Select Duplicates menu. Finally, click Select Action to either delete the duplicates or move them to a folder.
