A Png

This was a PNG butterfly with a Mehdi plugin. I added the background later. Rich

An eliminate black plugin with Xtreme transparency and multiple clones to produce a bump map. I use the bump map in Page Curl Pro 2 to give some dimension to the image. Rich

I tried a Mystical plugin from X1. I wanted to see if it was possible to use a mask. I could load a mask, and everything appeared fine on screen. However, the effect returned to X1 applied to the entire image. So, the mask didn't work. I tried saving directly from the plugin. This did not work, and it appeared to malfunction. I got some sort of file that I couldn't deal with. Rich

I like the page curl effect Rich.....I just get a headache as there are so many plugins and downloads out there that I'm like a kid in a sweet shop . I want to fill my pockets and run .

With the Page Curl, I did notice the absence of PSD export. You can export to PSD from Photoshop. I tried the Puzzel plugin, and it lacked export, also.
I was not able to move the pieces, either. When I tried the plugin from Photoshop, I got the same thing. It appears that that plugin was corrupted.

My puzzel making preference is in Xara, and I'll remove that plugin. Rich

This was a rectangular PNG in the center of a transparent object used with the Mehdi Kaleidoscope plugin. Normally the image would have been returned rectangular, but the square caused the plugin to work on a square. Rich

A clipview with a transparent rectangle to enhance the bird image. Rich

NEat effect Rich...

the pelican seems to lift from the page. Or like it was cut and pasted from another shot... I seen the original in the non-xara gallery.

Very interesting capability. I'll have to try a few more things. I was surprised Super Blade Pro works since it is only for Photoshop and PSP. Just have to keep trying plugins. I don't know why the AutoFX plugins partially work in X1 and not at all in Xtreme. Rich
