Effects can add a sense of sparkle and quality to your imageIntroduction

StarSpikes Pro 4 is an Adobe® Photoshop® compatible 8BF style filter plug-in that works as part of your image editor to create beautiful, photo-realistic diffraction effects around stars in your images. You can add effects to images that don't have them or you can augment and perfect the appearance of optical diffraction effects already present in your images.

StarSpikes Pro 4 can be used on most modern versions of the Windows operating system but please see our System Requirements section for further details.

You can use the StarSpikes Pro 4 plug-in with Adobe® Photoshop® or with other image editors that support Adobe® Photoshop® compatible 8BF style filter plug-ins, but be aware that some image editors are more 8BF-compatible than others. Please see the System Requirements section for a list of image editors that we have tested.

Our installer is quite straightforward, but if you need assistance in working through it or just want an idea of what it will look like when you run it, please visit the Installation section.

After installing this product, we recommend you read the Getting Started section.
