StarFilter Pro 4 8BF Filter Plug-in - USD $36.95   How It Works

Getting Started

StarFilter Pro 4 analyzes the content of your image to determine where the highlights are. It classifies their brightnesses and colors, displays the image, and allows you to manipulate the controls to create dazzling effects.

The choices you make by changing the controls determine how many effects are drawn on the image highlights and how they will appear. Tthe preview image updates immediately upon making control changes.

When you like what you see, press [ OK ] and the effects are written back to your image editor.


Works on PCs running Windows 7 and newer with Photoshop or 8BF plug-in compatible editor.
Sorry, we don't have Mac-compatible plug-ins at this time.
