Hi Mario, Well, I consider the Brightness/Contrast feature of Photoshop and other image applications one of the worst methods to to adjust contrast and ...
I absolutely agree with you - the contrast slider is complete crap and I never use it - but unfortunately the design guide of one world's biggest companies...
Hi, After just having released my latest plug-in; UnPlugged-X, I'm now working on adding some functionality to my Halftone plug-in. One of the features I want...
Martijn, You've got some nice effects in UnPlugged-X. Make a bitmap image in Photoshop by converting an image to indexed color. You will then notice that all...
Hi Martijn, Someone asked the same question on my forum at http://www.graphicsgalaxy.com/forums/thepluginsite/viewtopic.php?t=855 One guy wrote there that you...
Hi members of the FM mailing list, You may have noticed I have released a new commercial plug-in made with FM recently called UnPlugged-X. In short it is a...
(Woops, wasn't done yet :)) Hi members of the FM mailing list, You may have noticed I have released a new commercial plug-in made with FM recently called...
Bill, Thanks. I was about to do something like what you've done. I'll try it and hope I don't have much more to do. CHEERS, RON C ... From: Bill MacBeth...
While we're talking about project postmortems (or more positively, "Lessons Learned") I may as well mention one of my own. I wrote an article about a recent...
Hi Kohan, Have a moment? :) Wow, I didn't know getting a group of beta-testers involves so many problems! I guess a lot happens behind the list itself :-( Also...
With Harry's long-standing presence in the Plugin world, would it/could it be a good idea to create a Beta-testing co-operative, where shared beta-testing for...
Is there any way to determine if a plugin has been lanched from a Photoshop action? I've a 'complaint' that when included as an action, my plugin loads up and...
Hi Shifty, Currently there is no way to determine if a plugin was launched manually or from an action. I guess it would be a good idea to add such an option...
Hi Shifty, If you want one beta test group for several plugin developers, that would mean that these poor beta testers would have a lot of testing to do :-). I...
... That's what surprised me too... I've been involved in a lot of beta tests for several companies now, and run a few myself. This was the first time I let...
Thanks Martijn for the info, it's cool to hear about both the things that go wrong and the things that go right. I was wondering about how to implement a...
Hi Shifty, Sorry for answering this so late. How can I determine when the mouse *leaves* the preview area? Here is how: if (n == CTL_PREVIEW && e ==...
Yup, you read that right. Corel just bought Jasc. http://www.jasc.com/aboutjasc/press/press_release_101404.asp?press_id=70 Is this good or bad news? I really...
... It would rather seem PSP will be terminated in the long term after Photo-Paint is up to par with PSP. Kohan, I gather you're using your own installer...
Why would Corel run two or more applications that traditionally have been competitors? Unless they gun for different markets (low-level, high-level). I've...
... I haven't got around to working on the installer variations I've been wanting. I actually have a friend who was willing to do this for me seeing as I've...
... That's what Corel is claiming in their press release. They babbled something about Corel being a world leader blah blah in business graphics, and...
Hi, Thanks for informing us about these news, Kohan. That reduces the four big manufacturers of image editing applications to three (Adobe, Corel and Ulead)....
I think it's a very positive move. I think PSP and PSPA fill important niches for Corel, so I don't see them taking away those products. And only time will...
