How? How, how how? Part Two

[Bluefusion]

OK... I have yet to understand this but I'd love to. HOW do people make such amazing high-tech graphics? How do they make those incredible wierd line thingies....? Examples: http://studio.adobe.com , BlingBling's site (www.thecaseykelley.com) , etc... how do these people do it? BlingBling, maybe you'd care to comment? I love that abstract, high tech look on your site and I really want to know how that sort of effect is achieved... anyway, can people please weigh in on this? It's a very new trend that I really like but I can't understand how it's even done... lol

The cool/weird designs on Blings site were made with a photoshop plugin. He will send them to you if you have a fast connection. the plugins are BIG

I would LOVE that... I do have a fast connection (1.5 MBps DSL) so it would be fine to recieve something like that. Just in principle though... how big ARE we talking? I don't know how much email space Mac.com gives me (EarthLink only has 5 MB)... could he maybe post them on a hidden page on his site, or something?...

In any case, I'd love to get those plugins...

wow

i'm honored that my site was mentioned!


the plugins are 22.4 MB and it's a self extracting .exe file

it says it will work for either OS 9 & OS X, but nobody has told me if it's true... i am on windows

i am currently uploading it to my host... send me a PM and i'll give you the address when it's done...

Arrrrrrgh. After a bunch of private messages and all, I finally got to a PC at school, downloaded your file, and... well... got a serial number but... the problem is that it can't install since we don't have Photoshop...so, I installed it into ArtDabbler's folder instead.. but now there's tons of plugins and I have no way of getting it back to my Mac, even IF I could email (stupid school email doesn't work for me)...

Frustrated and annoyed, I *ahem* found the Mac OS KPT installer on Carracho, but it simply sits there after you click install saying "One moment please". ONE time out of around thirty, it opened up and started installing, but the plugins STILL didn't appear in Photoshop, I assume because it put them in the wrong place.

Does anyone have the Mac version?? LOL

Try this: Download the .exe in OS X and change it to .zip. Then open in stuffit expander. Move the result to the Photoshop Plugins folder, enjoy (if they worK).

[Bluefusion]

No, the problem is that they install PC-only versions of the plugins... and their buried among a bunch of other folders and random WIndows sysem stuff that I don't know how to sort through... I'm really not sure how to get around that...

Honestly, if someone could just explain why the stupid installer for the Mac hangs, I would be able to just install the plugins in their proper folders ON the Mac and be done with it...

[Trip]

Just an idea: BlingBling: could you perhaps get the infamous DropStuff for your PC, stuff the actual plug-ins then host them again? I, also, would LOVE to get these plug-ins! If possible!

Thanks!
