Don’t know about Photoshop but with Corel products the files/folder relating to the plugin are installed in the Plugin folder ie C:\Program Files\Corel\CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 13\Plugins. To avoid confusion VBA macros and the like go in the GMS folder.

Photoshop: If they are just the .8bf files – stick them in with the others, if a bit more specialised (like eyecandy) – in EDIT >> PREFERENCES>>PLUGINS & SCRATHDISKS set up the additional plugin folder for your new filters.

Ok fellas I’ve installed as you both suggested above which all went smoothly but now the stupid question how the hell do i get them up to use when I’m in these programs??? 🙄
The software plugin is eye-candy impact 5…. does this come up as separate tools or have you any idea on how to use it???
Just when you think you have gotten the hang of a software you have to confuse things awe well this is my learning process for the week.
Thanks in advance for any further help you can give me.

If you’ve installed it correctly in P.S. it should appear at the bottom of the FILTERS list with the > to access the individual modes. If I remeber – Eye candy has to be run/installed. Then link the folder where its 8bf files are to PS (as above).
