中国图片编辑软件在西方国家盛行
Meitu, a Chinese photo-editing app, has suddenly become popular in the West with its feature of turning your photos into cartoons. The app is free and available for both Android and iPhone, and it has been widely used in Asia for some years. It offers usual photo editing functions such as borders(边框) and red-eye removal, but it is its tool which turns photos into portrait-like images that has made it so popular.
After female users fell in love with the app for its ability to brush up their beauty, men also found it attracting. Now some users use its tool to turn the photos of the rich and famous, even Western leaders into portrait-like images.
Western users have uploaded their hand-drawn photos and comments on social media sites, such as Facebook and Twitter. Vera Chimera said in a post, “Guys loves this app. It’s amazing. It shows my inner kawaii.” Another Internet user Sabrina said, “I want this Meitu photo frame and like it to be on display at my funeral.” Internet user Bren said that he could not stop processing things through Meitu.
Western media, including the Telegraph, the Daily Mail and CNN, has also covered the app widely. While the app has become popular in the West, some have raised doubts over its security features, claiming the app could steal personal information. Moreover, some have accused(谴责) it of racism(种族歧视) as it turns faces yellow.
