I've not been a user of plug-ins for Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, or Xara. Now that Xtreme can apply them to vector objects and they are still editable, I'm having fun with them :D This is just a simple test of some of the effects from the Eye Candy 4000 for Xtreme I just purchased.
Bill,
I bought them too. Great fun arent they.

Hi Eric,
They are a lot of fun!!
This may be old info for anyone that has used plug-ins before, but for me it is new.
I started with a circle and applied the Chrome effect and played with the bevel profile. With some tweaking it could become a wheel cover/hub cap.
Very Neat Bill.
I have just pwayed a wittle bit with plugins and will pway more soon... :D
Hi John,
Haven't had much time to pway, since last spring. Things are starting to settle down. Upgraded the corporate network to support VOIP and 802.11g WiFi. Consolidated all locations in CONUS into an Active Directory forrest and upgraded all the independent email servers into a consolidated farm. Finished the email migrations this past weekend. Have a few remote users to update and we can turn off the old systems for good. :D
The release of Xtreme was timed just right to fit into my schedule :cool:
John;
For a self-proclaimed atheist, you sure do an inordinate amount of "pwaying"!
Glen :)
Hey Glen...
I never said I was an Atheist... but a christian Atheist. I believe it all, just not in church... :rolleyes: :eek: :D
But I do like to pway, at least a wittle bit every day. :rolleyes: :D
Hey Bill,
I like the "HOT" star with smoke/steam coming off of it. I guess I'm going to have to look into Eye Candy.
OT Question:
How is the VOIP working out. I looked into combining VOIP with our Frame Relay cloud but had doubts about the quality ... and the capital investment was a bit steep.
Hi Ed,
The VoIP testing was done by another team, and they report the quality is as good or better than our existing T1 voice trunks. My part was to install the Cisco switches, replacing the older 3Com switches and hubs. Replacing the various telephone switching equipment will be a project for next year.
The star is a quick shape with a diamond fill. I applied the smoke Live Effect and then applied a 19pix feather. I thought the look of the star being chared and smoke/steam rising was cool :)
