Related to this is the rather confusing method of installing Photoshop Plug-ins.wait, you don't use the Plug-ins folder? Like every other program?įor what it's worth, the programs that I have checked out and/or use include Irfanview (still easier to use batch processing, too!), Corel Photo-Paint, my Minolta A2 software (great curves function!), the GIMP, and Raw Shooter. I don't need layers or "painting" functions, but I do need an easy to use curves function. .8bf photoshop plugins free download - Adobe Photoshop 7.0 Scripting plug-in, Xero Plugins - Set. And at least for me, the 8bf dialog box will not go away until Smart Curves is closed! And, a final note to IrfanView newbies: Do learn the keyboard commands. Photoshop plugins (or plug-ins) are add-on programs aimed at providing additional image effects or performing tasks that are impossible or hard to fulfill using Adobe Photoshop alone.Plugins can be opened from within Photoshop and several other image editing programs (compatible with the appropriate Adobe specifications) and act like mini-editors that modify the image. I love Photoshop for photo adjustments, but IrfanView has become my favorite program for viewing, sorting, and tagging. I stumbled across Smart Curves, which works nicely, BUT, and it's a big but, is the procedure as outlined above to open Smart Curves. Also, I find that for viewing and sorting photos IrfanView is faster than Photoshop. My biggest complaint would be the lack of a built in curves adjustment. XnView has bumped Irfanview as my "go to" photo program!
I do not use this information in my daily workflow. Open the image in IrfanView and go to Image > Count Colors. Hi, first posting here after using XnView for a couple of months and Irfanview for a decade. Photoshop doesn’t offer the capability to count the colors used in an image.
