Innovations (Andrew Plugins Volume 1)
The plugin set consists of 26 general plugins
Each plugin also comes with 77 output / blend modes such as frames and tiling and Solarization and color and pencil sketch edge effects along with 18 effect modes (blur mode, extreme paint mode, smear mode, old sepia mode and others) and 20 selection / layer transparency modes (only valid on a layer)
Installation of Plugins Set
Please place the 8BF files in the plugins folder (or plug-ins folder). Please place the documentation and any ini files (holding presets) in another folder as required. The install process is not an automatic process. I would suggest copying the plugins into a sub folder of the plugins folder such as 'third party plugins'
Photoshop ® CS 2 [c:\program files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS2\plug-ins\...]

Please consult your application documentation for others
The presets, I would suggest, should go in a common folder with a structure such as c:\...\preset\blur\... for ease of finding the plugin presets.
The documentation, by default, is in a sub folder of the plugins, but this also can be placed, if required, in a common folder for all plugins.
Removal of plugins
Please simply remove the plugins from the plugin path. Either delete the plugins and the associated ini files from the plugins path or drag them from that folder and place in a storage folder for future use.
Serial Numbers
Please store the serial number file, generally of the format ...Serialno.txt and store this for safe keeping, or write down the details of the serial number included. This will be useful for any updates / upgrades or in contacting graphicxtras for a possible replacement CD. Please note, if you have downloaded the plugins from Shareit site, please (please) make a backup of the file set on CD or a floppy disk (s) or DVD as the download file is generally only available for a short time.
Initial Use of plugins
Please access via the filters menu of Photoshop (or your current application). The plugins appear in the AP categories such as AP [Blur] AP [Color] AP [Distort] AP [Edge] , being the basic category / functionality of the plugin
RGB
The plugins were designed for use with RGB images but they work fine in many color modes such as CMYK and grayscale and LAB modes. The plugins were designed for 8 bit color images but the plugins also work fine in 16 bit / per channel mode, though the results can vary (plugins using negatives will not work well). The plugins can be used in selections as well as on separate channels.
Buttons
The plugins come with (generally) consistent buttons along the button of the dialog for various shortcuts to modify the slider and dropdown settings.
'Xtreme' If you wish to experiment with the plugin and don't want to spend hours moving sliders and controls back and forth, simply click the 'Xtreme' button to randomize most of the settings (not all and not the most extreme of settings). Extreme can result in a wide range of experimental effects or just a blank or single color screen. The xtreme button is a good start point for trying out the plugin(s).
'Color' button randomizes only the color sliders in the bottom center of the dialog, the small red green and blue sliders. The sliders are added post effect / pre output to the image. If you want to create a red output, move the red slider to the right. To create an orange color output, move the blue and green to the left and the red to the right
'Blend' The blend (or output) button randomizes the blend dropdown. The blend dropdown includes 77 output / blend options (at present) and modifies the image accordingly. Some of the blend modes are tiling or mirror options and these work in 99% of plugins, but some of the plugins output the pixels in weird and wonderful ways and the seams of the tiles fail in these. Most of the blend mode options are color based, tweaking the final output by setting the tone or saturation or lightness or red channel and others. Each version of the plugin sets include new output options.
The plugins also come with other buttons but these are labeled relating to the plugin such as a gradient button (randomizes the gradient settings) or pattern (randomizes the pattern settings) or tweak (randomizes only a small number of value settings) or jitter (jitters left or right the current values). Most of the buttons appear on the bottom row but some also appear along the 'row' above (too many buttons..)
'Open Preset' - open a preset file. The preset file is in the same format for all plugins, so it is recommended when saving plugins, save them with the name of the plugin so you can select the required settings. In most cases, it won't matter if you select the incorrect ini file for the plugin, the settings will be set as required but in some cases, this might result in a very extreme image. Once opened and selected, the plugin ini file information will set the sliders for the required effect. The effect might vary from image to image (if the image is a lot bigger or the image is a lot darker etc, the general effect might vary)
'Save preset' - Saves all the current settings. If you are using a plugin called Noise_RandomTimes, I would suggest saving the preset (ini) file to a folder marked 'noise' and then to a file marked 'randomtimes' or 'noise_randomtimes' and ended with the effect type, say 'golden glow' 'warped' 'blue 1' etc
'Reset' - Reset to factory default
'Advanced' - All the dialogs have this button but many will appear to do nothing (the functionality has not been added but will be in the next release). The advanced settings are generally additional sliders that offer various features such as mixing or applying different effect modes such as blurs or randomization.
Note: some of the settings mentioned below will only appear if you click the 'advanced' button.
'100%' etc: Set preview to 100% (slow in some cases..) or 25% (quicker but less accurate)
Backgrounds for the plugin dialog.
The plugin will be displayed with a silver background by default. However, if you want to change the background, please copy the 'Andrewsplugins_background.bmp' file to the PATH folder
The PATH folder is not the real name of the folder, generally the PATH folder is 'c:\windows' but it can be 'c:\winnt' etc or a number of other possible settings. Please check your control panel for the current path setting in the system properties (advanced tab and environmental variables). Please consult your windows documentation for any updates to this. If it is just the c:\windows (and in XP it is), then just copy the Andrews plugin file into that folder. It is a bitmap file and can be any image. A number of variants have been supplied as well _1 _2 _3 and so on, please feel free to use these instead. You can also create your own by using the bitmap file as a template
Dropdowns or Combos
All the plugins come with a number of dropdown or combo controls (lists of functions). All the plugins come with a blend dropdown and this lists 77 blend modes. Some of the plugins come with an effect dropdown (and corresponding mode or strength setting) as well as additional dropdowns to modify the effect. If the dropdown is in the top corner of the plugin, it is a general control dropdown. Dropdowns further down generally offer variants of the effect
You can run through the dropdowns by selecting the dropdown control and using the up and down arrows on the keyboard or just display a large number of dropdown items and select the required entry
Blend dropdown / output dropdown: Controls the final output of the effect. If set to the first entry, the effect is as is without any modification (other than the color sliders). If the dropdown is set to inverse, the output effect is applied in inverse, and so on. Most of the blend options blend the effect and a color channel or effect such as tweaking the red channel or applying a solarisation or posterization to the effect. The dropdown is found next to the red / green / blue slider/trackbars at the bottom of the dialog
Some of the blend options include a border effect or frame so you get the original and the effect but only in the border.
Some of the blending or output options are tiling or mirror options and should work in 99% of cases but some of the plugins modify the pixels and source in many different ways and the complexity of the distortion doesn't allow for any tiling of the output. The tiling options include tiling from different corners (as a tiling of the left corner in some cases might lead to a blank screen or an uninteresting image)
Some of the blend options include edge or sketch like effects such as 'dark edge'
Effect Dropdown - (via Advanced) The dialogs have an effects dropdown and this changes the mode of the plugin. The basic mode (or first item) in the dropdown applies the effect as is.. a randomization or edge plugin. If you set the dropdown to tone or shift etc then the effect is used as a source for tone settings or blurs or shifting of pixels etc. The strength of the application being set by the mode slider (generally beneath the dropdown). Each effect mode uses the mode strength in different ways, so shift extreme, it is best to have a 0 or close to 0 setting but the blur or tone etc might have no effect if less than 100.
Layers Dropdown/transparency - (via Advanced) All the dialogs have a layer dropdown (click the advanced button to see it). The layer dropdown is only used if you are working on a layer or if you are working in CMYK mode. If you are in CMYK, the dropdown modifies the black element of the image. If on a layer, you can modify the layer transparency. The options include setting the transparency to the average of all the channels, use none, invert the mask, etc. Once you have applied the effect and you can then manipulate the layer via layer styles etc as normal or apply transformations or apply additional effects or add to the layer / subtract from the layer
Preview screen
The preview screen generally starts with a fairly small image (depends on the size of the original image). You can increase the zoom by clicking the zoom slider (+ and -). Hold the shift down as you click to set instantly to 100%. If you set the preview to 25% or 12%, the end result might or might not match the preview, the 100% setting is the best match but also the slowest. Some of the plugins can be very very slow at 100% setting though this depends on the size of the original file. Use the mouse to select the position in the preview by dragging the preview position.
If you right-click the preview, any sliders marked with [R] will be modified based on the position and the size of the dialog. This is more an experimental option and useful way of trying out a wide range of varying effects by right clicks to the preview screen. Some of the dropdown options work in the same way if indicated by a [R]. Some of the [R] options are based on the current color at that point or the position from the top left of the dialog.
Presets
Changed in this version to a saved ini file and opened ini file.
As mentioned above, save the current settings to a reasonably detailed named preset ini file name and use the open command to recall the settings.
Foreground and background colors
Some of the plugins (not all) use the foreground and background color settings in the current color palette to limit the color range of the effect. This is generally the case for the gradient plugins but a number of the output dropdown options take advantage of these colors to modify the output. These are indicated by FG and BG. Using different color settings can totally change the image. You can change the FG and BG in the color palette and then reapply the plugin. Some applications do not supply the BG and FG color information to the plugin and the plugin will fail in these instances or just fill the screen with black or white only
Plugins in the plugins set
"Blur - Fuzzy"
A plugin to create a camera blur shudder effect. The plugin's main control is the blur slider and this shudders the image. The image can be further modified and lightened by a combination of Add and Light settings (these tweak the lightness in subtly different ways). The noise or grain of the image can be modified by the noise slider. The image and the output are mixed by a combination of mixing sliders as well as mixing combinations of effect. The red and green and blur mix sliders can be linked by clicking the Link checkbox.
"Blur - Shudder"
A plugin to apply blurring over red and green and blue channels. The strength of the blur effect is controlled by the blur sliders (increasing the red above blue and green will create a red blur halo in the current direction). The direction of the blur / shake is controlled by the direction options dropdown (horizontal, diagonal, up down, and others). The higher the shake setting, the greater the smoothing of the blur. The color slider is only used for some dropdown settings such as inverse otherwise ignored, otherwise the slider is ignored. The mix slider mixes the source with the effect (if set to 255, the original image will be displayed). The link checkbox links the red and green and blur blur sliders (move only the red channel slider)
The plugin comes with a number of dropdown options:
1) The first dropdown controls the coordinates to be used for the blurring, by default, basic x and y coordinates but others include radial and angular coordinates for extreme blur distortions
2) The transformation dropdown flips, rotates by 90 degrees, and applies other transformation to the output.
3) The third dropdown are the basic blend options for the blurring and original image.
4) The fourth dropdown modifies how the blurring is applied.
5) The output options modify the output (this has really been superseded by the output options at the bottom of the dialog but has been left as it can be used to create unusual color effects in combo with the newer output options).
6) The direction options apply the blurring effect to a particular direction such as horizontal (though this depends on the coordinate system being used).
"Color - Add"
Plugin to add color to an image. By default, nothing is added, so the image will be the same as no effect added. To add to the red or green or blue channels, move the required add channel slider. To additional noise the image, move the noise slider. The factor slider is used for only some of the dropdown options. The color is added to the image and applied depending on the current 'add' dropdown settings. The dropdown options include percentage applies, linear applies based on the original image and color settings, color applied across the image from left to right. Using the dropdown and add sliders in conjunction with the output dropdown, a vast number of different color effects can be created.
The plugin works well in other color modes such as LAB or grayscale or on a particular channel. Set the color mode from RGB via the image - > mode command in Photoshop to LAB and modify the color channel add sliders (Red being Lightness; green being the A channel and the blue channel the B channel). Tweak the color settings (as well as the output dropdown) to create unusual color effects before returning to RGB color space.
"Color - ColoringSet"
A plug-in to tweak the color channels. The plug-in settings require the setting of various dropdowns.
The Red slider works in combo with settings such as R=r or the inverse R=r). The
color channels are tweaked in infinite ways to create surreal as well as subtle
color shifts. The plug-in offers many different color filters option in 1 by using
the different apply modes (apply 1, apply2, etc.) as well as different output
and color replacement (depending on the replace options set and the value in comparison
with the threshold settings).
"Color - Flow"
Plug-in to add a subtle gradient or color overlay to an image. The plug-in adds value to the pixels using different combos of gradient and color apply (the gradients are basic horizontal or diagonal etc.). The factor setting is used only for a certain number of the dropdown options such as snowburst or distorted. Create many subtle color shifted images.
"Color - InverseTime"
Plug-in to create a negative or inverse effect. The plugin inverts the color channels by default to create a negative. The user can further tweak the color channels to create subtle variants of the negative image. The plugin also mixes and blends the original image in a variety of ways as well as creating grayscale negatives, solarisation effects as well as controlling the final output of the negative (creating a darker emphasis or outputting to one channel only).
"Color - Nightmares"
A plug-in to create nightmarish combinations of an image. The plug-in was originally created as a filter Factory plugin and is available as 'Nightmares' in the Andrew's Filters collection. This plugin is a major extension of that original plugin. The plugin distorts, scales, rotates, turns, twists, shears, and then blends the effect with the original image. The plug-in can be used to create garish color shifts. Create unique nightmare effects from any image. The plug-in works best if the image is a full color image. The plug-in doesn't work so well on sparse single color images. Also for creating weird and wonderful text distortions.
"Color - PosterPaints"
Posterisation or color limiting effect. A wide variety of poster or posterisation effects can be achieved using the poster and threshold channel settings. The image and posterisation are mixed using the mixing sliders. The plugin comes with a variety of dropdowns. The first is the application of the posterisation so different styles or types of poster effect can be generated. The replace dropdown is linked to the threshold settings, if the match is made and the threshold is exceeded, the original color is replaced with a color or perhaps a pixel shift or even an emboss. The emboss effect can also be further tweaked by the color dropdowns to use the inverted red in the posterisation process instead of the actual red pixel.
"Color - Posters"
Variant posterization color-limiting plug-in. Edged based posterization effect. The plug-in limits the color of the image and creates the effect based on the edge setting. The brightness of the image is controlled by the intensity and added to by the add slider. The posterisation effect is mixed with the original image using the mixing sliders and the various mixing dropdown options. The plug-in is useful for creating more colorful poster-like effects
"Distort - Cutting Edge"
Plug-in cuts and distorts an image in a variety of radial themed ways. The default is a radial cut and ripple from one of the corners but the plug-in comes with a variety of different cutting types and these can be accessed via the cut type dropdown. If you wish to randomize the cutting effect, just click the type button and random cut types will be applied. 100s of different image cuts can be created, generating rippled effects and more. The plugin works well on full color images as well as applying many styles of cut to text. Simply type some text and then apply the cutting edge plugin (works best with the document flattened)
"Distort - ShiftMesh"
Plug-in to apply a mesh or set of lines in a variety of patterns in combination with shifting the source pixels. The plugin comes with a variety of direction styles such as vertical or horizontal lines or back arrow or zigzag. The lines can be further modified using the type of line such as thin line, thicker line, x variant line and more. You can also randomly select the type of lines to use by clicking the mesh button. The line or the source can be shifted using the checkbox 'line' in combo with the shift sliders. Many different type of shifts or distortion can be created from subtle line based effects to zigzags or mesh or grid paper line effects.
"Distort - Sliced Turn"
A rotation / twisted / sliced plug-in. The plugin by default splits the source into slices. The lower the slice slider setting, the more slices are applied (the slice setting being the size of the slice and not the number of slices). To create bigger chunk slices, set the slice setting to a high value.
The push slider controls the scaling of the twirl effect.
If you wish to apply the twirl effects without the slicing applied, please set the slice or not checkbox to OFF. If this is set, the slice slider will have no effect.
Use the turn and push and CLW sliders to create a wide variety of twirled and jarred image effects. The twirl effect is further modified by twirl dropdown and these have options for 'truly warped' 'outer twirl' and others.
"Distort - WavyCity"
A cut up plug-in. The plugin by default cuts the image up into waved slices, alternate slices are turned upside down. The plug-in comes with a variety of slice types such as a checkerboard effect, diagonals, zigzags, rings, and waves. The slices can also be varied, rotating 180 or by counter clock wise, shifted, and scaled. The wave size can be controlled, along with the shift and the center of the effect. The plug-in can be used to create distortions as well as embossed or watermark effects. The wave effect can be randomized either by clicking the wave button (to randomize the wave) or 'tweak' button to randomize the related wave settings, creating many 100s of variant distortion effects.
"Distort - WavyCut"
A cut up plug-in but instead of rotations, the plugin applies just a basic pixel shift. The plugin slices the image and shifts the source and output effect. The plug-in can create stunning image breakup effects; 3D like effects; sheet distortions; surreal overlapping of images; glass distortions; and image shatters. The plugin comes with 27 wave options and these can be randomized by click the wave button (to randomize the type of wave - which can vary from lined / rippled / waved / ringed waves) and by clicking the tweak button to randomize the wave settings to explore a wide range of distortion variants. The settings can all be set by hand to create subtle to extreme distortions. The plug-in also has the standard set of color features and output options and these can be used to create limited color distortions or raw color images and other color effects as well as basic overlays and color channel overlays (scattering green glows throughout your image). As with all the plugins in the series, the plugin can be used in conjunction with Photoshop's own blending modes and fade options. Or use the distortions in combo with the art history and paint history brush.
"Edge - Edgeworks"
Edge revealing plug-in. The plug-in comes with a variety of edge or line effects. The plug-in is also useful for emboss effects as well as scratchy pencil effects or faded images. The plug-in line effect is controlled by the range (more edge is revealed using a lower range of pixel checking). The type of edge is controlled by the sliders at the bottom of the dialog and these control the color of the line, the line style such as randomized grain or embossed. A variety of different line styles can be generated using a combination of channel-based dropdowns. The 'edge' direction and size is controlled by the edge dropdown. The factor settings are active only for some of the edge dropdown settings. The XY dropdown sets the resulting output line from a basic line to a glass distortion or radial type of line.
"Edge - Edgy"
Dark edge effect plug-in. The plugin creates chunky 'paint' influenced edge effects. Great for poster like imagery. The main control being the edge slider, set to low value and the edge is thin, larger settings will result in wider chunkier lines. The plug-in mixes the original image or variants (based on a dropdown 'mixing red channel' ...) using mixing sliders per channel. The mixing options only work if the mixing values are not the default settings.
"Edge - Edgy2"
Dark edge variant plug-in. The plugin creates chunky 'paint' influenced edge effects. Great for poster like imagery. The main control being the edge slider, set to low value and the edge is thin, larger settings will result in wider chunkier lines. The plug-in mixes the original image or variants (based on a dropdown 'mixing red channel' ...) using mixing sliders per channel. The mixing options only work if the mixing values are not the default settings. This plugin is a variant of the 'edgy' plugin.
"Edge - EmbossPic"
Emboss plug-in creates basic emboss effects as well as unusual variant embossing such as grained emboss, jagged edged emboss, top to bottom emboss, and B/W emboss. The emboss effect is controlled by the direction sliders emboss (x) and (y). The emboss is changed using the emboss dropdown and this can be randomized using the 'emboss' button. The emboss can also be colored using the color sliders and the final output further tweaked to create a negative emboss or a FG / BG color bound emboss.
"Lines - SilverLining"
Line-generating plug-in. The plugin applies lines across the image in a variety of ways (using the line type dropdown - 'vertical' by default but the lines could be 'horizontal' or 'diagonal' or 'jittered lines' or 'grids' or 'dashes'). The distance between the lines is set by the gap slider. The line slider is used as an additional factor for a number of the line settings (the line slider has no effect for vertical etc. but is used with 'mesh' and 'line pattern'). If you wish to reverse the gap/line, click on the 'to line' (setting it to off), this will generally fill most of the screen with solid color but it can be used for additional line effects. The threshold slider is used to mix more or less lines into the image based on the underlying color pixel value and this can create unusual SF effects and break through styles.
"Noise - Gritty"
Plugin adds a grainy gritty edge to an image.
The output and the source are mixed via the mix sliders. A grainy edge can be added via the edge command. The red and green and blue channel sliders modify the randomization channel used for the grain. Setting all the channels to a single channel setting reduces the grainy effect to a single grainy color (though this is modified by the mix sliders).
The actual grain is applied using the red and green and blue noise channel sliders. The greater the setting, the greater the grain and noise and less of the original image.
The plugin can be used to create unusual grained color effects such as smeared grain effects and edge grain effects. Removing the grain, the plugin displays the image offset from the original image.
"Noise - RandomTimes"
Grainy plug-in. The plug-in applies a grain in a variety of ways and controls the density of the application via the density dropdown (average, diagonal, ...) The noise is set on a channel by channel basis using noise slider (R), noise (G), and noise (B). The image and noise is mixed using the channel mix sliders.
The noise can also be set to mono by setting the mono checkbox to on.
"Pattern - Gridway"
Op art dotty plug-in. The plugin creates stretched dots across the image. The number of these dots is controlled by the quantity setting.
The dots can be shifted using the shift sliders though this has minimal effect and will only be helpful for subtle alignment of the dots.
The sharpness and brightness of the dots can be modified using the intensity and sharpen sliders. To sharpen the dots, set the sharpen slider to close to 0. To create blurry dots, set the sharpen slider to the maximum. The split channel controls apply color and blurring to the dots for each channel to create unusual color dot combinations. If the dots are very sharply defined, the split channel settings will not modify the color of the dots.
The plug-in can be used to create intense dotty images or vague blurry dots.
Tryout creating unusual combinations of dots using different blending modes (such as difference blending mode) and reapply the effect. The dots can be further modified by using various distortion effects and warping.
"Pattern - Lightshow"
Dotty plug-in. The plug-in creates dots but the dots can be smeared into pulses using the mixing combination sliders. The lines and dots can be shifted up and down or sideways using the shift sliders. The number of the dots is set by the quantity slider. A wide variety of emboss, intense dot, color dots, light smears, and other effects can be generated.
"Pattern - OpArt"
The plug-in can create an infinite variety of weird and wonderful opart designs. The factor controls are the key and the default is only use the first set of entries (marked as A), ignore any of the B and C settings. If you set the B factor to something other than 0 then the B settings can be used. The A and B and C groups of opart polarize in a variety of ways to create different shapes and forms. The grouping controls (the wave 1 2 3) sliders control various aspects of the wave and depend on the wave related dropdown, so the wave can be a 'squeezy' or 'bend' type and this will generate a different kind of wave and use the 1 2 3 settings in different combinations. Combining A B C and the various wave factors and dropdowns for each grouping and many 100s of different wave types can be generated. The wave entry values can also be modified from being x-y coordinate space to radial or mirrors or other types of wave type. The warp slider has little effect unless a setting is marked as 'warp' or is a warp type wave. The waves can be mixed with the original image via the mix slider. The '=' is a smooth feature and the X and Y settings work with various other dropdowns to tweak the warp. The 'replace' dropdown uses various internal threshold checks, if the effect pixel is above this threshold, the effect color is replace with this color (or effect, such as an emboss). The plug-in also offers two output features (one a legacy of the earlier development of the plugin). The plugin can be used in a variety of ways to create stunning unique wave effects.
"Utility - BothSides"
Invert / positive image mirror effect. The plugin inverts the left side of the image and keeps the right side as is. The top two sliders scale the right side of the image, shrinking or increasing the horizontal scaling of the image. The inverted image on the left have two scaling sliders also. A light slider controls the overall darkness or lightness of the image for their respective sides.
The output is further modified by the output options and output red and green and blue sliders. The plugin can create unusual mirrored effects by repeat applies and modifying the scaling settings for each side.
"Utility - Reflections"
Image reflection and pattern plug-in. Splits the image in two and reflects in a variety of ways. The image can be further tweaked using various combinations of the scale factors.
To link the scale settings, click the link scale checkbox. This might make it easier to manipulate both sides of the mirror (instead of individual tweaking the settings).
A number of options or mirror types are available and these can be randomized by clicking the mirror button. The options include basic tiling as well as mirror effects. Some of the tiling options have also been included in the output options.
Scaling A slider refers to the right side of the preview, scaling B refers to the left side. The tweak button randomizes the scaling settings.
Applications support
