PLUGIN: Buzz
VENDOR: Fo2Pix http://www.fo2pix.com/, a division of Segmentis
PLATFORMS: Win or Mac
OS: Windows 95 or higher; see site for current info on Mac OS status
WORKS WITH:
* Photoshop
* Paint Shop Pro
* PhotoDraw
* Corel Photo-Paint
* Fireworks 3
and most other leading graphics programs
Though I’ve barely scratched the surface of this plugin's capabilities, I’ve been amazed at the fairly decent looking “photo art” this plugin can generate.
In many cases the renderings can stand alone, but in others they look better when used as a basis on which other filters or effects are applied, or are combined through blend modes with other layers.
Notes:
* The company makes a stand alone PC-only application called PhotoArtMaster that I’ve read has similar capabilities as the plugin.
* Buzz is packaged a couple different ways. For example the Buzz “Pro” package contains more filters and presets (and costs more) than the Buzz “Lite” offering.
Pictures / examples worth many, many words. Here’s couple reviews containing sample before / after images:
