Machine Wash Deluxe Photoshop Filters Updated
January 19, 2010
Here's the info on the new filters from the Mister Retro site: We started from scratch and rebuilt the Machine Wash Deluxe plug-in from the ground up expanding and enhancing it every step of the way to create the most realistic and amazing effects we could imagine.
It's Downloadable - you can order online and download right away.
Texture Effect Picker with Live Preview - It's now faster and easier to find and preview the perfect texture in real-time on your images without wading through every texture effect. You can also filter the effects by style and set name.
Apply Wash Effect on Mask Layer - Now you can apply our popular Wash effect in the image mask layer allowing you to fine-tune the Wash effect while leaving the original image untouched.
Presets are Here - Now you can create and save as many presets as your heart desires to recall your favorite plug-in effect settings. To help get you started we came up with plenty of our own factory presets to show off the rich new features of this plug-in.
While most people know our plug-in for it's amazing Wash effects, you'll be amazed when you see our brand new Surface and Background effects.
Introducing Surface Effects - Create dimensional surface effects with powerful and easy-to-use lighting and color control.
Say 'Goodbye' to Heavy Cycle and 'Hello' to Background - Now create realistic background images and effects with precision control and ease.
Effect Multiplier - Don't bother running the plug-in multiple times to combine effects, now you can create multiple image effects at once.
Add Depth - Now create, apply and adjust natural and realistic looking 3D textured depth perspective on all of your images. Find out more at the Mister Retro site.

Did You Know You Could Create An Entire Website In Photoshop?
SiteGrinder Photoshop Plugin - Create Websites Instantly
There often seems to be a strict division of labor within the world of web design and development. Creative professionals tend to stick to the Photoshop domain, while those well-versed in scripting are left to the task of implementing their work. Indeed, the two realms are quite different from each other, to which any of us even vaguely familiar with either can easily attest.
Essentially, Photoshop is a no-holds-barred design studio, offering the artist a seemingly endless array of creative options. On the other hand, HTML, CSS, Java and the like follow strict rules of engagement, requiring the developer to take any number of esoteric concerns into consideration in order to ensure that designs are properly displayed on the web.
Turn Photoshop Into A Complete Web Design Tool
SiteGrinder seeks to bridge this gap between design and development. Basically, this program turns Photoshop into an easy-to-use and fully functional web design tool. With SiteGrinder, designers will now have the freedom to totally let their creativity loose and then, without skipping a beat, transfer their designs to the web. Bringing esthetic concerns together with more practical considerations, this program is an amazingly powerful tool that would make a fantastic addition to any web designer's bag of tricks.
Generate Your Web Pages Directly From Photoshop
By generating web pages directly from Photoshop, you'll be able to spend much more time on the creative end of the spectrum, since you'll know right off the bat how well particular designs will translate to the web. No more going back to the Photoshop drawing board after getting a phone call from your development team, telling you that what you had envisioned doesn't have a chance of being displayed on the web. You can immediately visually and interactively test your designs, which permits you to then make changes to either esthetics or functions while it's still relatively early on in the design process.
Pricing and Availability
Mac OS X and Windows versions of the SiteGrinder unlockable demo are available now via download. SiteGrinder can be ordered from Media Lab's online store.
