Make Adobe Photoshop. work harder for
image manipulation, painting and getting the most from your images.

You've got SPLAT... If you can Photoshop it, you can Splat it! from page 1... and page 2 Okay... borders and frames is kind of cool. Best point is Alien Skin has licensed the Dover collection of Art Nouveau frames so all you have to do is click and scale. Presto, instant frames. Now you won't have to scan them, or go searching through mountains of EPS files looking for the frame of desire. Just click SPLAT. Of course you can also create themed borders from everyday objects with the Stamp tools as well. From mosaics to traditional wood frames or object frames like grommets or push pins, SPLAT is an inexhaustible supply of image effects and idea starters. Take the lowly candy corn. Not very interesting, eh? Now put it into SPLAT and you've got a candy store... or creative border, or wholloping background. If you can Photoshop it, you can SPLAT it. You use it through an easy-to-use interface with a fully-resizable preview while viewing underlying layers. It's got unlimited Undo/Redo and even includes handy mouseover help text. All you need is Adobe Photoshop 5.0 or later, Macromedia Fireworks 3 or later, or Jasc Paint Shop Pro 5.0 or later. It only wants 32 MB or more of physical RAM, but with all the reference, surface textures and bump-map files you'll need at least 50 MB free space on hard drive. The full installation requires a whopping 300 MB. So you know what kind of diversity we're talking about. Splat is going to thrill you! Watch for more upcoming coverage of SPLAT in the Design Center -- Splat! is carbonized for OS X on the Macintosh and is available for both Mac and Windows at a paltry $99 bucks... charge it off with your first use!
