5.0 out of 5 stars Photoshop Plug-In Filter Magic, October 3, 2008

A lot of people think there is value in using free Photoshop plug-in filters. I've tried many of those and also have bought quite a few.

I read about Nik Color Efex Pro 2.0 in "Photoshop for Photographers" magazine and downloaded a 15-day trial of version 3.0 from Nik. After using it for a couple of days, I was a goner. I wish I could afford the Complete Edition, but settled on the Select Edition based on bang for the buck.

If you have an earlier version, you should consider upgrading due to improvements to the user interface. The user interface is superb. I think I know what I'm talking about because I design user interfaces for a living. The user interface is intuitive, flexible, and attractive. They clearly thought about the design for a long time.

Some of the filters do amazing things. It's very easy to compare the results to the original and to move from filter to filter.

Don't try the 15-day trial unless you're prepared to spend the money. Otherwise you will miss this product once it expires.
