• Filter Gallery
The distort, blur, edge, sharpen, render, and stylistic effects can be
applied singularly or in combination within Filter Gallery...
guaranteed to keep you up late! The Gallery also incorporates the
popular Instant Artist effects (Oil, Impressionist, Pencil, Watercolor,
Paint and Ink, and more).
• Third-party Plug-in Effects and Custom Effects
Support for third-party Photoshop® plug-ins. You can even design
your own custom filters.
• Layer Effects
Add 2D Layer Effects such as Shadow, Glow, Bevel, Outline and
Emboss for a sophisticated look on text or other image elements.
Apply multiple effects onto a layer's existing effects for stunning
design output. Move into the realm of astounding 3D Lighting and
Surface Effects—advanced algorithms bring flat shapes to life! Vary
surface and multiple-light source properties. Start with a pattern or a
function, adjust parameters for incredible surface contours, textures,
fills. Use Reflection Maps of indoor/outdoor bitmap environments or
Transparency control to create realistic glass-like reflective surfaces.
Try 3D Painting using Depth Maps to add instant dimensionality to
your artwork. Painting or erasing on a layer's depth map appears as
raised or lowered strokes on the image! Use with 3D layer effects to
achieve "carved" side-view textures.
• Versatile Deform Tool
The "Swiss Army Knife" of image tools, the Deform Tool lets you
rotate, resize, skew, reshape, or add perspective to any selection or
layer.
• Warp ToolsWarp tools pull, stretch, and distort image details, or
shrink and enlarge. Pixels turn to putty with the Mesh Warp Tool!
