I’m also a PS addict and FF is a great addition to it.
I will use it for creating my college campaign poster.
Thank you for the giveaway Filter forger pluging. Whenever i have to use cool textures in my website background i have to relay on free texture sites but now i also can create cool texture using FF.
when it comes to giveaways….Freebies are always appreciated. I can use this one for my number of projects starting from sketches to websites. After spending some time of FF site it seems that it’s very easy to create new effects. If i win..i’ll surly give it a try.
I always use to wonder that how they create cool shiny background effects in advertisements and posters. Now i think that can be easily generated using this plug-in.
I would use it in a project we are pitching for right now where we are creating a virtual mascot for a japanese company.
Loved it………….. Great resource….
These kind of stuffs are always useful ^__^
Filter Forge would really be useful for ANY project. As for the next one I’d use it for, a homepage redesign is where it’d get a workout first.
will use it for my personnal graphic work !
Web 2 was all round corners,shiny buttons and glossy glass – till we got tired of that. Then came the flat matte looks with square images, and we’re all getting tired of that too.
The next step is going to be TEXTURE, and this is where Filter Forge comes in. Within two years the variety that texture offers is going to take over the Web Design World. When its done well, texture is never boring.
Where would I use my new Filter Forge?
Well, besides just everywhere, it would be the foundation of the personal portfolio site I’m working on now. What’s holding me back is that all my design concepts, based on the tools I have at hand are well, boring. The concept that I really want to do is full of rich textures in combinations that are not only different and daring but have that visual “POP” that makes a site really good.
Thanks for this opportunity – and thanks for all the great work you have been doing to make the Web a better place.
All the Best
Sheina
As the title says… i’ll use it for creating Amazing Textures and cool Effects.
