Ok, I have that Impressionist great plugin, but it doesn't work on mac (I'm not able to use VirtualPC), so, There is someone that could be used like that?

Well I don't believe the plug in does work. However a fantastic application to use for the Mac is Studio Artist. It can do just about everything imaginable in digital graphics. Take a look at: CLICK HERE (http://www.synthetik.com/)

I had been using Painter before. Seems to be buggy since bought by Corel. (Maybe it's my machine) I see that Painter has a new version, which may be more stable. Phil, have you used Painter? Do you think that Studio Artist is a better Mac product?

Wow, that is a pretty spendy program, Phil. Guess I'll stick with Photoshop, Painter and buzz, and AutoFX, and Kia, and Flaming Pear, and nik color effects and on, and on, LOL, you can "program" yourself into the poor house.

Thanks Pill, a lot!

Another thing, I get the Extensis SmartScale for Photoshop 7, but after the installation, I can't find the plugin anywhere.

I installed it into 2 different macs and nothing.

Well, Nana it is expensive. I just started to try out some digital art software so I am well behind the curve of most of you. I believe it was Kiska in one of her posts here that got me to look into the program. So I gave the demo a shot and bought the program and am trying to learn how to use it. On an A to Z Learning curve I'm at level B and next week I may make it to C if you know what I mean. Its like starting out in Photoshop. In fact I think you need to be fairly knowledgable in photoshop or similar programs to even to begin to learn how to use Studio Artist. The good news is that its incredibly powerful and versatile and one of those programs that you start down one path and end up doing something entirely different.
