A-Z of Free Photoshop Plugins and Filters

http://tutorialdb.org/a-z-of-free-photoshop-plugins-and-filters/

The Photoshop community is choc-full of many free
resources, tutorials, tips and techniques, .psd files and even Actions.
There is one area that it sadly lacks in, and that is free plugins and
filters. Of course, Photoshop has been the pioneer in graphic editor
development for a long time now, and with each new version (its current
version is CS4) has added an endless supply of features and addons, and
as a result, perhaps the need for free plugins or filters is no longer
required. Or has it been ignored?

Traditionally plugins are an amateur photographer’s best friend, take
your shots, fire up Photoshop, apply some well preset filters, and hey
presto you have a reasonably professional image. Professional
photographers have been known to use plugins as a base and then tweak
and add effects to achieve there own personal professional touch.
Plugins are basically an indispensable tool that do not recieve the
attention they deserve. And that brings us back to our original mystery,
why are there so few free plugins and filters? Do you know the answer? I
don’t.



In this A-Z of free Photoshop plugins and filters
you will find a few plugins that are (almost) as old as time itself, do
not fear, they will work perfectly on all versions of Photoshop and the
effect they produce are just as useful now as they were then. If you are
looking for a simple and easy method to add effects to an image, this
is the post for you.
