Plug-ins & Textures

**zidev** · 10-23-2004, 08:21 AM

I use Paint Shop Pro 9. I love it. I use all of the alienskin products with it and a few other plug-ins. I also love the fact that from my understanding that msot Photoshop plug-inswork for it too. Also it can open and edito photoshop formats and PDFs.

Is there any excellent plug-ins that will work for PSP9 that you know of?

Also I am a collectore of EXCELLENT QUALITY textures. There is millions if not more poor quality ones on the internet. I am picky

I like ones that look realistic or have unique and USEFULL pattrens or textures to them. Let me know

There has to be soem good plugins out there you all would recommend... Or some textures even?

Sort of hard to recommend plugins, because they all do different things. But what comes to mind is:

Noise Reduction: Neat Image, Noise Ninja
Sharpening: Focal Blade
Variety of Effects: Splat!, Xenofex
Soft Focus: ScatterLight Lenses, Dreamy Photo
Black or White Removal: Cybia AlphaWorks
Hue Shifting: Color Mechanic Pro
Photo Fine Art Effects: Virtual Photographer
Auto Adjustment: ColorWasher
Area Replication: Alien Skin Image Doctor

As for textures, there is an interesting wood texture stand-alone from Spiral Graphics called Wood Workshop.

Does the new eyecandy have textures?

**Andrew B.** · 11-22-2004, 09:31 AM

Yes, I think it does. Like the Marble texture and some others. And there is an upgrade coming with more. Splat! also does textures with its Resurface tool.

Alien Skin offers demos of these, so it is easy enough to try them out.

I am not sure if you are interested in free plugins Zidev that work very well with PSP and I believe Photoshop as well. What I would like to do is make a list place them in a sticky for everyone.

Praveen has made a wonderful list of different things with descriptions.
