During our meetings we sometimes refer to the easy color-editing features of the MyHeritage website or the computer software of a company called Vivid-Pix.
Vivid-Pix is advertising it's Holiday 2025 Sale. Holiday pricing ends January 4, 2026. The company has grown a bit since we first talked about it and offers a bit more than its two photo correction software applications. Vivid-Pix has bundles for institutions and the home-user.
Not
sure if the Restore software is for you or a loved one? Come into our
favorite library's Local History and Genealogy Room and try the Restore
software in-person on the new scanning station that replaced the
BookScan station. Or, some of Vivid-Pix's software have free trial
periods.
First a caution. Make sure you are seeing the sale pricing you are expecting before clicking the buy button. After adding your item to the cart, go to the cart and click the coupon code and enter this sale's code. The sale price should now show. Did you put in the coupon code correctly? HOLIDAY2025
The website's Holiday Sale is on its Gift Guide page. This sale is a little less confusing than last year because it mostly focuses on caregivers and home-users. All three levels (institutions, caregivers and home-users) have bundles with scanning equipment and then just the software packages to add to your existing computer/scanner system. So Tip #1 is look to the where the home-user level is talked about. We'll note below here the mostly likely items on sale that may be of interest to our genealogy members.
Here is a summary of this year's sale.
Now don't forget the actual Black Friday and Cyber Monday and Giving Tuesday days. Last year there was additional sale pricing "Giving Tuesday" for one or more of those days and they donated a percentage of the sales to an organization. That sale used a different coupon code. A good way to keep informed is to get on the Vivid-Pix email mailing list. We do not know if the Giving Tuesday sale will be repeated this year. We hope so.
What is on sale that interests genealogists?
Vivid-Pix Restore (this is the software) which provides one-click correction that can be fine tuned with sliders for scanned prints, slides, documents and digital camera images focusing on general photography and restoring faded pictures and documents. The regular price is $49.99 but 20 percent off makes it $39.99 for this HOLIDAY2025 sale. Last year's Giving Tuesday sale price was $29.99 -- the lowest price ever.

Just to repeat one more time, we
are not sure if Vivid-Pix is doing the a Giving Tuesday Sale again this year and what will be included. We will have to wait and see. You can see prior sale prices by selecting the Vivid-Pix Label in the left-hand column to bring up all our posts about Vivid-Pix.
