behind the cover artUsing Photoshop-compatible plug-ins is an uncharted creative adventure. One can spen
hours experimenting with different combinations of plug-ins. This issues cover started wita single, simple photo of a tree and evolved into something entirely different! Heres how:
The plain sky in the original image was crying out for something more appealing. I searmy archive and found this cloud photo from Hesperia, California. I selected the sky withMagic Wand tool and pasted the cloud image into it. The result is a believable but much minteresting combination. When it comes to photo art, feel free to experiment.
The nex t orde r of business was to begin thi nking abou t what plu g-i n eff ects woulappropriate to add to this base image to create further interest and mood.
< LEFT: The Layers palette for the finished cover image, showing the order of effects
The cover image seems to be making some sort of environmental statement, but actuaisnt. In the course of experimentation, the dominant fire element came from Alien SkinCandy 5: Nature set (more on that later). The tree image was shot in Chino Hills, Californiabeautiful spring morning. Nice photo of a great location, but that alone is not enough. Spreparation work was necessary before the various plug-ins could be applied.

nik Color Efex Pro 2 offers a fcalled Old Photo Color which gthe tree photo a grainy, moootherworldly appearance.
Next, I extended the subdued moodusing Center Spot, found in Digital FilmTools 55mm suite of plugins. CenterSpot added the soft-focus effect tohe edges of the image while leavinghe center in its original state. I
adjusted the balance of focus untilsatisfied with the results.
Once you begin working with plug-ineffects, you will look at your existingmages differently and also approach
your new shots with an eye toward
adding digital effects. Its better toshoot clean and add any effects later.
At this point we are a long way frthe origina l tree photo! Necontent to leave well enough alondecided to add edge effects to entire image. onOnes PhotoFraman excellent choice for rescuing yimages from the ordinar y bringing them into the extreme.
Adding a frame or edge is a ma
of looking through tens, hundredthousands of frame files until you one that suits your image and result you have in mind.
PhotoFrame allows you to not oapply the frame, but to changesize, orientation, focus and opacityaddition to adding bump mapdesired.
Our tree photo is almost finishBut when there are more plug-inshand, there are naturally more effe
waiting to be applied...

The plain white edge of the back ofhe page curl was an invitation to make
a selection. And an active selection isan invitation to apply another plug-in!n this case I turned to the Alien Skin
Eye Candy series, specifically, Nature:Fire.
With a little experimentation, you cancreate a simple flame or an entire
irestorm in your image. At this point inmy design, the f lame had yet tospread, but spread it will, as we willsee in the steps on the next page.
At this point we have the origtree image with a new backgrouncolor effect, altered focus and aedges. What to do next? Take it the third dimension with a page effect (after deleting the cusedges white pixels)!
AV Bros. Page Curl Pro is the madvanced curling effect to be fouNot only can you do the classic cuany direction and to any degree,(among other things) you can additional curls along with bacimages! (See the masthead ofPlugs N Pixels website for anoexample of the curl effect.)
Our tree photo ended up with separate curls on opposite endthe image. But a simple cur l is enough for the plug-in artist! when there are stil l more plug-inexplore. And this is where thesuddenly began...
Lets take a moment to see howPremiere Issue! text on the ezcover was created.
I started with the text shown beand experimented with varShinycore Path Styler Pro presets I arrived at a combination of effthat comprise the text on the co(from left to right: Stroked white tmetal effect, orange glow effect drop shadow).

Now we will see how the effects all come together! Lets work our wayfrom the background (bottom layers) up to the additional fire effects.
The background is composed of three separate images: A solid black (forthe stroked edge), a white image fil led with Alien Skin Xenofex 2Television Lines with monochrome Noise added and the same white
image inverted. (All layers were left unmerged for flexibility.)The lined layers were blended into each other with a Gradient maskand offset slightly to create the raised line effect. On additionalseparate empty layers just above the background, I applied Alien Skins
Eye Candy 5: Nature (Fire and Smoke), ar ranging the layer positionsagainst the background until satisfied with the overall juxtaposition ofeach layer element.
Meanwhile, back on the tree layer (complete with page curl andfire): I duplicated the layer and applied a radial blur to the copy (seebelow). The original layer was reduced to 55% opacity over theblurred one. Underneath the tree layers I added two copies of the
Eye Candy 5: Impact (Backlight) effectto create a white glow. A noisy dropshadow was applied to an independent firelayer, which was also dupl icated tostrengthen the opacity of the effect.
Finally, the plug-in icon and the title wereadded to finish off the design!
Working with plug-ins to produccreative imagery such as the cover othis ezine isnt hard! This tutoriasounded complicatedit was actually
harder to remember and describethe various steps I took while I wasexperimenting in Photoshop than tocreate the image composite in the
first place.Once you understand the basics of
your imaging program and theoptions offered by the various plug-
ins, at that point its only a matter ofexperimenting. Freely apply different
variations and combinations of plug-ins.

There used to be a simplification produ
called buZZ Pro/buZZ.X, marketed by f02pUnfortunately, that developer went out of tplug-in business and for a long time there wno other product to fill the gap. Until now!
The folks at Topaz Labs not only reproducethe unique effects generated by the buZZ linbut have added more control and additioneffects as well. Problem solved.
The new Simplify 2 interface now offepreset thumbnails. You can choose fromnumber of varied effects which range frobuzsim (used on this pages backgroun

Of course you are free to further edit thresults of each preset, including the size anstrength of the simplif ication, level brightness, contrast and saturation as well edge type and strength (with isolated edgpreview for fine-tuning the distinction).
Simplify makes it easy to experiment wiapplying different presets to duplicate laye

Dead pixels and horrible digital noise aboundn this long-exposure image of a California forest fire.
The shot was taken in 2003 with a 4-megapixelconsumer camera at night, so the odds were againstgetting a clean image from the start.Topaz Labs DeNoise 2 plug-in handled both
problems with very little tweaking, resulting in aclean yet still-sharp final version of the image.

The folks at Auto FX have come up with what I can only describe as a fantasyfactory for images. Mystical Lighting operates as a plug-in or standalone app,
enabling you to add dreamy lighting effects to your images. Apply either photo-realistic or surrealistic light and shading effects at will. It no lonmatters what lighting conditions existed at the time of the shoot.

Adding creative edge and freffects to your favorite photos is
thing, but Auto FX's Photo/Graphic Ed6.0 takes the process to a whole new level! Not only are you supplied with 3 CDs full of profession
prepared content, you can layer these effects using SmartLayers technology AND use the 230 artistic bruto paint on edge effects, as I have done at upper left. The application runs as a plug-in or a standalon
maximum compatibility, and offers unlimited undos (the applied effects are not permanently written to original file until you actually choose to save it).
Begin your work by choosing from among 14overall photographic effects, within theconfines of which you pick and choose edges
to apply as you explore the endless possibilities:Acid Edge, Ambient Brush, Burned Edge, Distort
Edge, Edge Brush, Edges, Frames, Montage, PhotoBorder, Photo Tabs, Putty Edges, Smudged Edge,Transfer and Vignette. Included in the screenshot atright are the Burned Edge Effect and Smart Layers in

AV Bros. Puzzle Pro 2.0: A very puzzling piece of software...From Petah-Tiqwa, Israel comes the AV Bros. Puzzle Pro 2.0plug-in, which has as its main purpose the creation of jigsawand other puzzle piece effects in your images. A most power-ful program, Puzzle Pro 2 offers you complete control over theshape, size and lighting of the pieces you create. In addition topuzzle pieces, you can create maze, honeycomb andengraved effects! Prepare to spend some extra time with the
51-page PDF Help document and their website in orderto understand and get the most out of this plug-in.
Puzzle Pro 2.0 works its magic in two main windows(aside from the various other detailed adjustment andPreset palettes that appear from the depths of the
application!): The Cutter panel (lower right) is where theactual puzzle piece shape is edited, and the Mainwindow (above), which can take the for m of Layout,Puzzle and Adjust modes, is where you select which actual puzzle pieceswill be affected (or not) by the settings. Individual puzzle pieces can beselected and colored, as well as deleted or exported as separate piecesinto their own Photoshop layers which can be accessed separately.
The screenshot below shows how you canmanually edit the custom shape of eachpuzzle piece for full creative flexibility.
