In this short article we're going to outline the reasons that we firmly believe that 3D Box Shot Pro is the best software for creating box shots and ebook covers.

3D Box Shot Pro is Fast!

3D Box Shot Pro is fast. We mean really, really fast. Using a combination of pixel shaders and hardware accelerated OpenGL graphics, 3D Box Shot Pro renders in real time. This mean that if you need to export very high resolution images from the program, you'll get the finished results in seconds rather than hours. This provides a massive boost to your productivity and helps to streamline your work flow.

You get an immediate view of your model in eyepoping detail, instantly in real time, rotate the model and adjust the perspective as you require. Whatever you do, you will see the results immediately.

3D Box Shot Pro does not use a Proprietary Model Format

3D Box Shot Pro does not use proprietary model formats. All of the models that appear in 3D Box Shot Pro are .3DS files. 3D Box Shot Pro can also import .3ds and .md2 model formats. As a result, you are not restricted to a small range of preset models. You can load in models created in any major modeling format and use these to create unique images that can be used on the web or in designs.

We can't over state this. Unlike other software for making box shot, 3D Box Shot Pro is not restricted to a small range of preset models. Other box shot software may only have a small range of models included. With 3D Box Shot Pro you can load more or less any .3ds model. In effect, 3D Box Shot Pro can work with hundreds of millions of 3d models created over the last decade.

Images in Perspective: 2D to 3D Image Conversion

We don't know of any other product with this particular feature. 3D Box Shot Pro can load it still images (including transparent .PNG files) and instantly allow you to manipulate the image in 3D! You can add soft shadows and realistic reflections to add life a sparkle to otherwise mundane images. This feature is great for creating eye catching product listing for eCommerce sites or eBay listings. It's great for making stunning profile pictures for social networking sites like Twitter and Facebook.

Innovative Clicker Picker Interface

3D Box Shot Pro's innovative clicker picker interface make selecting model and model faces really simple. You can apply separate Ambient, Diffuse and Secular colours as well as shininess to individual model faces. You can also apply depth and environment textures to individual model faces. This opens up a hugh amount of creative potential for Box Shot Pro

Does Not Require Adobe PhotoShop.

3D Box Shot Pro is not just a light weight plug in for PhotoShop shop. It's a fully fledged standalone application with it's own highly advance real time rendering engine. You can export transparent .png file from 3D Box Shot Pro that work great when dropped into a layer in any layer based image editing program.

Cutting Edge Technology

We love technology and are not afraid to use it! Box Shot Pro now feature bump mapping and environment mapping technology used in AAA computer game titles and CGI Animated Movies. This helps to create very realistic textures on models.

Here's a quick example of what you can achieve with the depth mapping and environment effects in 3D Box Shot Pro:
