Tutorial on Image in Animated Water Reflection

The site also has a free plugin to help with the animation.

Thank u so much, i have been looking for this for sometime.. now i just gotta figure out which plug in to download and go with it...

[Matty]

Okay this might be a stupid question but hey i was always taught that the only stupid question out there is the question that isn't asked... so here it goes... why do i need a plug in for photoshop?

[tx51210]

It automates tasks and assists in making complicated effects.

Everthing under your filter pull-down menu is a plug-in.

There are a lot of free and pay plug-ins available for photoshop that do all kinds of neat things.

Okay i have another question sorry to be a pain in the butt. I have downloaded it, and it says just drop it into the plug-ins of the program that you are using i did it and it says access denied. Do i have to put the files in separately

[tx51210]

For windows the correct path for plug-ins is C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS3\Plug-Ins\"directory you create".

Make a directory under plug-ins and unzip the files you download into that directory. When photoshop starts up it reads all the files in the plug-in directory structure and will include the plugin under the filter pull-down menu.

thank u so much again. I hope i have this right, i followed that path and it is in that folder plug ins. Under adobe photoshop cs3, so lets see if this will work for me... again thanks so much...

[Matty]

I want to thank u tx51210 so much. I am on facebook on alot of the groups for photoshop and do you think any of them have responded back. I was starting to get discouraged by it all. So thank you again for the help... now i get to play...
