FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Portraits & Prints=81 and iPhoto Make the Perfect Team

Oviedo, Florida -- January 15, 2002 - Econ Technologies, Inc. announces the
release of Portraits & Prints version 1.0.4, the personal photo studio for
Mac=AE OS X. This update makes Portraits & Prints=81 and iPhoto work even
better together.

Apple's recent release of iPhoto brings some powerful photo cataloging and
archiving capabilities to every Mac OS X user. The ability to generate
slideshows, books and "1-Click" photo print ordering is certain to be a
boon to many people. However, when it comes to actually enhancing and then
printing digital photos on ink-jet printers, iPhoto's capabilities are
somewhat limited. Portraits & Prints enhancement tools and its variety of
printout options fills the gap left by iPhoto.

When using Portraits & Prints and iPhoto alongside each other, photographs
can be easily shared between the two programs. Portraits & Prints will not
duplicate the original photo stored in iPhoto's database, thus conserving
valuable disk space. A tips section is available online that shows exactly
how to use Portraits & Prints together with iPhoto. Check out the Econ
Technologies web site and see how iPhoto and Portraits & Prints make the
perfect team.
