Scam: plugin Andromeda -PHOTO-TILER- for photoshop --be aware--

to everyone out there playing with the idea to purchase plug-ins.
i just got scammed / coned by Andromeda, into buying a plug-in that doesn't work at all with photoshop and the company very smartly hides those little facts so hidden , that you will fall into the trap of buying it before you realise that it will only work with older indesign software , and that is indesgin cs 2 at that , and not even indesign 3 or 4.
it gets even worse..... more catastrophic,..if you have cs 4 , then cs2 indesign will not work anymore anyway, since cs 4 will delete cs 2 serial numbers from your computer ....
its the photo-tiler from andromeda i am talking about. a whopping 79,00 $ later , and a escrutiating 31 days later , the owner finally responds to my complaint, and had nothing more to say than , the 30 day return money guarantee is over ....
so i got scammed on about 4 levels here....
i think anyone out there considering Andromeda plug-ins should be careful ,..very careful,....

Regular JPEG is capable of high definition (size) images.
The "HD" in "HD Photo" is a reference to the fact that the bit depth can
greatly exceed the 8-bit limitation of regular JPEG. That's primarily
of value in high-quality photo editing, and for archiving originals.

DVD player upconversion is no better than the upconversion built-in to
any decent HD TV; i.e., it's mostly just marketing hype.

Exported Photos for Photoshop

Hi,
Is there an efficient way to export ONLY THE PHOTOS USED for Photoshop touchup? I was thinking to tell my Photoshop guy to make a new folder called Re-Touched and put the photos in there with the names as I gave it to him. This way I can re-connect the new Photos more easily (while hiding the un-touched photos). Is there a better way to do this?
Thanks.

To quickly identify the photos you used in a sequence, select all in your timeline (CMD+A) and then right click and choose Label and pick a color.
All the clips and photos in your sequence will turn the color you chose, and so will their corresponding master clips in the browser. From there just select the color-coded photos to export.

Pixelbender Plugin available also for Photoshop CS 5.5?

Hello Community,
as a user of CS 5.5 (for Win7) I am jealous for the users of Photoshop CS 6 who got the "oil painting" filter pre installed. Luckily I just learned about the "pixel bender" plugin for downloading and installing that filter for ealier versions of Photoshop. Buuuut somehow it doesn't work and I read only "download for CS 5" everywhere but nothing about "CS 5.5". So, is there a way to get this filter for my Photoshop CS 5.5?
Thanks a lot!
Marius

Yes, the pixel bender plugin you want is for photoshop cs5 12.1

Microsoft HD Photo Plug-ins for Photoshop are Released

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hd_Photo
"HD Photo has been announced by Microsoft and the Joint Photographic Experts Group to be under consideration for a JPEG standard, tentatively titled JPEG XR.
"The HD Photo bitstream specification claims that "HD Photo offers image quality comparable to JPEG-2000 with computational and memory performance more closely comparable to JPEG", that it "delivers a lossy compressed image of better perceptive quality than JPEG at less than half the file size", and that "lossless compressed images are typically 2.5 times smaller than the original uncompressed data".
http://blogs.msdn.com/billcrow/archive/2007/12/06/hd-photo-plug-ins-for-photoshop-are-rele ased.aspx
"HD Photo plug-ins for Adobe® Photoshop® CS2 and CS3 have been officially released for both Windows and OSX. They're available now from the Microsoft Download Center. [Links on this webpage]
"The Windows version is supported on Windows XP and Windows Vista, and works with Photoshop CS2 and CS3. While not officially supported, it will also work with limited features with older versions of Photoshop and with Photoshop Elements. The included README file has details.
For PSE6, I installed it to
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 6.0\Plug-Ins\HD Photo Plugin for Adobe Photoshop\
It works properly, as far as I can tell, for both Opening and Saving.
File size and processing speed seem consistent with the claims for the format.

Aperture 3, Photoshop CS5 and OnOne Plugin Suite 5.1 for Mac

Hi yall,
I mostly use Aperture 3.1.3 to manage my photos.
I got a new iMac and installed this software and recovered my Aperture Library. All is fine.
But I also installed my Adobe Creative Suite 5 Master Collection for Mac, and y OnOne Plugin Suite 5.1 for Mac and ... it doesn't work.
Aperture doesn't find either Photoshop nor OnOne as external modules.
Can anyone tell me how to force Aperture to find those modules?
Thank you
Jean

I've never used any of the Nik plugins, but I think it's bogus that it's a separate purchase for PS and A3. My Noise Ninja, for example, works with A3, PS or as a stand alone.
Agree 100%. I have a long simmering discussion going on with Nik support about this (and the fact that the current workflow is destructive and, though it is reproducible, is not consistent from a UI POV). I'm sorry that I didn't just start w. PS and Nik's PS Suite (which I still don't own).
DLScreative wrote:
For anyone who owns PS I would absolutely buy plugins for PS over A3. You're breaking of the non-destructive workflow either way so you might as well have all the power and flexibility of photoshop along with your plugin. I see no advantage to running plugins from Aperture.
Also agree 100% (and you point here is important and affects users). I think (don't know PS well) the workflow once in PS is either non-destructive or close to it. Certainly much more so -- and much easier to administer (=know what you did) -- than via Aperture-to-plug-in.
DLScreative wrote:
I would go a step further and say buy Photoshop before spending 100s of dollars on plugins.
That's gonna depend an awful lot on whether you can get your money's worth from PS. The Nik tools are very sweet, and (imho, obviously) superbly tuned to manipulating digital photographs.
I would like to have Nik's "drawing board" (I just made that up, but basically their UI for interacting with the planar data, including their U-Points), PhotoShop's tool chest, and Aperture's organizing abilities. For $200 US.

New Kodak plugins for Photoshop

When reading the News items at the dpreview.com site, I noticed the announcement of some new plugins for Photoshop and compatible programs.
http://www.dpreview.com/news/0702/07020101kodak.asp
The asf.com Kodak site seems to say compatible with PSE 1, 2, 3 for the non-pro plugin.
Does anyone know about PSE 5?
The color restore of the ROC plugin looks interesting.

I have installed the Pro Version of the ROC plugin. It works with PSE V5.
During the installation, I specified that it gets installed in the folder C:\Programme\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 5.0\Plug-Ins
This seems to be important (in my first attempt to install it, I did not override the folder specification, and PSE 5 did not find the plugin).
Personally, I find the plugin very expensive: nearly 50 US$ for the normal version, nearly 100 US$ for the professional version. This seems to be especially expensive when comparing these costs with the PSE license costs and when considering that each one of the Kodak Plugins cost these 50/100 US$
But of course, for those PSE users who have an important need for it, the 50/100 US$ might be worth it. I wonder however, whether there are similar plug-ins that are much less expensive or even free.
Personally I would welcome a decision of Adobe, to provide in future similar plug-ins (or sets/packages of similar plugins) at a much more reasonable price. Perhaps Adobe could provide reasonably priced sets of plug-ins that include among other some of the really nice photo-enhancements capabilities/dialogs of Lightroom. I should probably describe this in the "Feature Request" forum.

What is the best way to use a SSD for Photoshop/photo editing?

Computer hardware newbie here: I do a significant amount of photo editing work and for a very long time I've experienced Photoshop, Bridge and Photomatix crashing constantly (usually due to insufficient RAM) or just generally taking forever (Bridge took forever to load the thumbnail/preview extractions in a folder full of images, Photoshop took forever to save images and Photomatix took ages to load/merge a set of bracketed photos). Here are the typical error messages I'd get: http://pastebin.com/J9byczse
As a professional photographer, constantly running into that sort of thing is quite aggravating, so to hopefully avoid ever having to deal with that again I invested in a new custom built computer. It's Windows 7 Professional 64 bit with 32GB of RAM and a 240GB SSD; I'm using the 240GB SSD as my boot drive/OS, all of my programs are installed there, and the page file. My photos and data are stored on several HDDs. I have yet to install any of my photo editing software (Photoshop CS6 Extended, Lightroom, Photomatix etc) to the new computer yet since I'd like some advice first.
My basic question is this: what is the best way to take advantage of the SSD (and the computer in general) when it comes to my photo editing software?
Specifically...
1. If I have a folder of photos I'm working on, should I move it to the SSD and then work on them from there in order to take advantage of the speed of the SSD? Would this make any difference in terms of speed if the photos are located on the SSD vs. an internal/external HDD?
2. Most of what I've read online seems to recommend two separate SSDs, one for installing/booting the apps and one for cache/scratch. Does it matter if I use my 240GB SSD for both?
3. This is a fairly new computer and the SSD is already almost half full (102GB used, 120GB free) *WITHOUT* any of my photo editing software installed yet. I'm concerned about how fast that remaining 120 GB may fill up. As it fills up will I lose the speed advantage of the SSD vs. a regular HDD?
4. Sort of similar to #3, but should I bother moving any of my other non-photo editing programs/caches off of the SSD to a HDD and would there be any major difference in the speed/lifespan of the SSD if I did so? It's mostly Firefox and Chrome and their caches that I'm concerned may be a problem if they remain on the SSD.
Thanks for any help!

If you have an SSD you can run the cache and programs on the same drive. However, many recommend a scratch disk size of 100-200 gigs so that will not work here unless you opt for a larger SSD. Otherwise an internal spinner is recommended that does not contain the program files, or idealy any other files that may want to get acessed at same time (only one read/write head per drive).
With 32 gig of RAM you may not need the constant use of the scratch drive unless working on large images with lots of layers. So see no advantage to moving folder to SSD for temp work environment.
From what I read the new crop of SSD do not have the wear problems of the older versions.

In Need of a developer for Photoshop and Illustrator plugins

I am in need of a developer interested in developing plugins for Photoshop and Illustrator for a specific industry of Textiles and Fashion. Please contact me if you are a developer with experience in plugin development. [email protected]

Hmmm... I'm using JSF but it's my first project so I don't really know it's powers.
I instantiated all classes that will eventually populate the combo box (through reflection) and now I'm trying to find one which of the objects did the user select.
Would it be a problem for you to give me at least a rough scatch of what I should do?
I tried it like this:
in my managed bean:
public HtmlSelectOneMenu getProductsMenu() {
        //instantiate and populate the list of products (prodlist)
        for (Product p : prodlist){
            optionlist.add(new SelectItem(p, p.getName()));
        final UISelectItems items = new UISelectItems();
        items.setValue(optionlist);
        productsMenu.getChildren().add(items);
        return productsMenu;
    }and in my JSP:
<h:selectOneMenu binding="#{managedBean.productsMenu}" />but then, in the bean, when I try:
((Product)productsMenu.getValue())I get a Class cast exception. it says it can't can't cast String to Product...
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you!

How to install plugin and exta filter in photoshop cs ? and any special filter for special effects ?

how to install plugin and exta filter in photoshop cs ? and any special filter for special effects ?
kindly recommend me any best one and tel me step by step how i will add more plugins n filters

A Plug_in normally come with an installer or install instructions. Check the documentation for the plug-in you trying to install. It sounds like you don't know what plug-ins you want to install. In that case you don't need to install any. At some point you may read about a plug-in and what it can do and feel you have a need for it. Then you will have a reason to install a plug-in that is not installed by default. There may also be a cost involved most worthwhile plug-ins are not free.
Adobe Optional Plug_ins downloads are Plugins Adobe want to remove from Photoshop and no longer install by default. Also at some point in time these will no longer install into the current Photoshop for Adobe will remove feature or interfaces the use. For example the CS5 optional plugins will install in Windows CS6 perpetual version 13.0.1.3 but not in Subscription version 13.1.2 or perpetual Mac version 13.0.6 fot its 64bit only and the Mac CS5 optional plug-in for Picture package is only a 32bit plug-in.
You will need to keep and maintain old versions of Photoshop if Adobe remove features you use in new versions of Photoshop.

Camera raw plugin for photoshop 5.5 (windows) not updating

Hi, I'm trying to update the camera raw plugin (min 8.2) in photoshop 5.5 for windows. I downloaded, ran, installed camera raw plugin 8.6 and rebooted. The installation wizard shows as installed but when I open photoshop it still has camera raw 6.7.0.339. Please help!! (The dng converter works but the camera raw plugin has not been updated)

That may be because the latest version of ACR that works with CS5 is ACR 6.7
Adobe - Photoshop : For Windows
Adobe - Photoshop : For Macintosh
You can install ACR 8.7.1 in CS6 to get new Camera support without ACR new features

Where can I find the plugin to open camera raw files for Nikon D810 for Photoshop CS5.1? I've looked around the site but cannot get this to work.. Thank you.

Where can I find the plugin to open camera raw files for Nikon D810 for Photoshop CS5.1? I've looked around the site but cannot get this to work.. Thank you.

See for yourself which version of ACR is needed for that camera’s RAW files
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
then check your version (Photoshop > About Plug-In > Camera Raw).
Your version of Photoshop does not support that version of ACR.
You could use the free DNG Converter.

Adobe Camera Raw plugin for Photoshop 7

Is it still possible to purchase the Adobe Camera Raw plugin for Photoshop 7?
If so, can the plugin read *.raw files from an Olympus C-8080?

HI mattscreative,
Yes I've installed that but that imports .orf files and my camera saves .raw files.
Thanks,

Good Monitor for Photo Editing in Photoshop?

I hope this question isn't too OT for this forum, but I would think that it's an important concern for Photoshop users.
I'm looking for a good monitor for photo editing in Photoshop -- photos that will be printed to 16"x20" and above. I have a limited budget, having invested most of my money in an Epson 7900 printer -- so I'm looking for the best monitor available for under $1000 US. I already have a 19" Samsung flat panel that I will use as my palette monitor in a two-monitor setup.
I have heard of a few good models by Dell in this price range. Any other suggestions on size and brand? Thanks.

I haven't seen it myself, but I've read good test reports about the Dell Ultrasharp 2209WA. An IPS display which apparently pretty good colour stabiliy over the whole panel. No hardware calibration, though, but you can't expect this for less than 1000 bucks.

Trapcode Form/Particular like plugins for photoshop?

Hello all,
I would like to know if any of you knows about any plugins for photoshop, that work the same as trapcode form or trapcode particular...
I found the Ulead Particles plugin and haven't tried it yet, but it seems from what i saw that its not that important, what it does looks to me like it can be done with brushes...
I am looking for a plugin that can shatter text or images, turn images or text into particles, and everthing trapcode form and particular can do...
I know everything can be done using the available standard tools, but i am looking for something faster..
Thank you for your help

Hello, John!
I think that those guys have a filter : http://www.frischluft.com/
I would search google for rays of light photoshop tutorials...
but most of them will be rectangular to polar> wind, wind, motion blur>polar to rectangular... I guess that you already tried it.
