A
computer graphics company mainly built on the acquisition of several products from their original creators, including
Poser,
Bryce, and the
KPT series of plugins for
Photoshop. In early 2000, the company divested almost all of its graphics products, shifting its business focus entirely in support of its
3D web software called
Metastream.
Some of the buyers of MetaCreations software included:
Poser - Curious Labs
Bryce - Corel
Painter, Painter 3D - Corel
Kai's Power Tools (KPT) - Corel
The sales of two packages created by MetaCreations itself, Carrara and Canoma, have not been finalized, though Carrara is supposedly joining the Adobe family.
