I thought Level Control ws a very useful addition. I look at my AutoFX plugins and try to duplicate the effect in XXP. Those plugins don't run in XXP.
So Saturation painting was a method to locally increase saturation. I thought the rainbow worked well, too.
I like Super Blade Pro for texturizing my textures, and XXP in general for blending and creating textures.
Mezzoforce Ice is good for creating a textural overlay.
Akvis Sketch work nicely. I don't see a progress bar in V3 from XXP or XPEP. I see a bar in Photoshop.
White and black elimators are useful. Although XXP bitmap transparency works.
I use some color adjustment plugins.
I use AutoFX Gel for making Reflection maps in conjunction with Xara.
