Elements Plus filters, masks and more

Independent author Andrei Doubrovski has rolled out Elements+ 1.0, his new enhancement patch for Adobe Photoshop Elements 8. Elements+ is a handy add-on that unlocks the undocumented advanced functions in Photoshop Elements featured in the latest versions of Photoshop.

Elements+ is JavaScript-based, so the script behavior will depend on current circumstances. The unleashed features can be accessed via dedicated dialog boxes that include undocumented commands and panels for exploring and using the hidden (officially unsupported) contents, such as paths, color channels, and more. The kit includes smart filters, vector masks, and many more advanced tools normally hidden under the hood.

 

Remove red-eye with ease

DataMind Srl has launched Beryl Plugin 1.0, their new, professional level digital image processing plugin for Adobe Photoshop and Elements. Leveraging DataMind's proprietary state-of-the-art algorithms, Beryl is a Photoshop plugin that automatically removes the red-eye effect from digital photos.

With a focus on ease-of-use, choose to have Beryl process images automatically, or manually select the threshold amount of removal required. In both automatic or manual mode, users can set the intensity of correction. In manual mode, Beryl goes one step further by letting them choose between two sub-buttons (Find or Delete). When selecting Find, the single eye, or the area that needs the correction, is discovered and pressing the second deletes the correction.
