The Works 3.2
Complete classic FX Collection!
A collection of 8 plug-in filters for use with Adobe Photoshop or compatible host applications. Originally created back in the 90's, these filters have been updated several times and converted into a number of different versions. They provide the user with a base of very simple effects that can be handy on a regular basis. You will probably have already come across these many times over the years on various websites and magazine cover CDRom's. It has always surprised me that people still seem to enjoy using them, so I will keep providing the downloads as long as they are wanted!
ColorWorks offers many variations for modifying image colour values in different ways, from subtle correction of your digital photos to more dramatic transformations for artistic effect.
EdgeWorks creates dramatic edge and colour modifications which are best used for experimenting with intense photo transformations for a highly stylized look. Also handy for texture effects.
ScreenWorks provides you with a quick way to add small detailed and repetitive texture overlay effects to areas of your image in one easy step. Add the pattern on top of your image, or make the layer background white.
EmbossWorks gives you a selection of choices for producing various quick and easy embossing styles. They are handy when you need to add a sense of depth or relief to an otherwise flat image.
SwapShop is meant for the easy switching of colour values in your images. Useful for experimenting with interesting combinations and creating surreal or artistic style results.
MasterBlaster is a simple effect for "blasting" intense colour into your images. Ideal for when you need to add dramatic impact to your photos or work, or just to give an image a strong overall cast.
Mezzy will let you create a selection of different grain and mezzo styles. Give your photos a whole new look with these various effects.
