AV Bros. Page Curl Pro - Overview
AV Bros. Page Curl Pro plug-in has the all new and unrivalled engine that lets you not only bend the image, using two types of bending (curling and folding), but also texturize it (using the bump maps), orient it in 3D space (including perspective distortions) and obtain total control over the process of lighting the image (including the option of dropping inner shadows).
Because Page Curl Pro is a multi-purpose plug-in it may be used not only as a page bender, but also as a texturizer and a lighting lab, as well as for many other design purposes.
The interface of Page Curl Pro is extremely user-friendly and has some unique features that make working with the plug-in easy and enjoyable. Here are the main differences between the PRO and the "Regular" version:
- The Multi-bend option: the ability to create several bends within the single session of the plug-in.
- The ability to orient the page in 3D including adjustable perspective.
- The ability to specify the Limit of the page turn and as a result the ability to create the "non-complete" page curling effect.
- The ability to make the bent part of the page to be cut into the remaining part of the page.
- The ability to use the Advanced Lighting mode for obtaining the total control over the process of lighting the page.
- The ability to drop the Inner Shadows with adjustable Opacity and Size.
- The ability to texturize either side of the page by using the grayscale images (called Bump Maps), with which you can manipulate inside the plug-in.
- Multi-level Undo option.

AV Bros. Puzzle Pro - Overview
AV Bros. Puzzle Pro is a filter plug-in for Adobe Photoshop and compatible hosts. Puzzle Pro is an extremely high quality, powerful and flexible product, which can greatly increase your creativity and productivity.
Thanks to both the superb engine and the user-friendly graphic user interface, the plug-in gives you absolute control over the process of creating all your desired effects. And although AV Bros. Puzzle Pro is targeted to help you create a jig-saw puzzle effect, it also produces a plethora of other high quality image effects.
Puzzle Pro provides you with absolute control of a puzzle's shapes, delivers a large number of built-in effects for modifying the content of a puzzle's pieces, and gives you the possibility of not only being able to split an image into pieces, but being able to draw the splitter's shape too. Puzzle Pro includes an option to save the shapes in .EPS or .AI formats for using them in such applications as Adobe Illustrator, Flash, and CorelDRAW.

Welcome Hostway Newsletter readers! As a proud partner of Hostway we are pleased to offer a collection of some very special offers for Photoshop lovers, digital photographers and graphic designers!
Fluid Mask 2.0 is based on breakthrough segmentation technology inspired by the way the eye, optic nerve and brain perform visual processing. When an image is loaded, Fluid Mask's segmentation engine analyses the distribution of colors, finding the natural groups within the image. Together with information calculated about edges, gradients and textures, a model is constructed which divides the images into objects.
