MacWorld, SAN FRANCISCO, CA, Jan. 10 Hemera(TM) Technologies, a world leader in wholly owned digital image content, announced today the availability of Hemera Photo-Objects(TM) 50,000 Premium Image Collection for the Macintosh(R). Hemera is the first company to meet the needs of both the SOHO market as well as the graphic design, illustration, web and publishing markets for a low-cost, high quality royalty-free image collection with a twist - the images have already been masked, therefore eliminating the need for users to create the transparency themselves. "We have seen strong demand from the Mac community for a Photo-Objects title for the Macintosh platform," said David Hood, CEO of Hemera. "Our PC version has been highly successful, winning many industry awards, and we are responding to the Mac community with a product that offers incredible quality and value. Users will be impressed by the vast number of professional images contained in the Hemera Photo-Objects Collection."
