What's Already Great
Realistic Effects
Realism sets Eye Candy effects apart from the generic filters built into Photoshop. Effects like Animal Fur, Smoke, and Reptile Skin are rendered in exquisite detail down to individual hairs, turbulent wisps, and shiny scales. Eye Candy helps designs look natural and organic.
Zillions of Effects
Eye Candy has grown over 19 years to handle a huge range of graphic design tasks, from subtle extruded edges to glitzy chrome. There are 32 effect categories, over 1000 presets, and controls to let you create an unlimited number of your own styles. Take a look at our examples for just a sample of what Eye Candy can do.
Adaptation
Eye Candy scales effects to match the size of your current artwork. That makes it less likely that you will have to tweak a preset to make it look good.
Non-Destructive Editing
Effects are drawn into a new layer, leaving your original artwork untouched. Eye Candy can also work as a Smart Filter, which lets you modify or remove the effect later. You can save presets to consistently recreate your favorite looks.
Professional Features
Eye Candy can handle images in CMYK mode and 16-bits/channel, which are needed for professional print work.
Review
Bagi anda yang belum pernah tahu Eye Candy, eye candy adalah plugin untuk photoshop. Beberapa user menggunakannya dengan Fireworks, secara resminya software ini hanya untuk photoshop, jadi kalau ada yang menggunakannya di fireworks dan ada masalah, customer support tidak bisa membantu (sumber: alienskin forum / blog).
Eye candy ini adalah pengembangan dari xenofex sejak beberapa tahun lalu, kalau tidak salah xenofex terakhir versi 2. Eye Candy ini berguna untuk membuat efek yang dibagi dalam 2 bagian: 1. Shape, 2. Texture.
- Shape : memberikan efek berupa es, listrik, api, asap, metal dll
- Texture: kulit macan, reptile, petir, awan dll
Tampilan aplikasi ini juga sudah jauh berbeda dengan xenofex, jauh lebih bagus… tidak lagi standard.
Kesimpulan
Bagi yang malas belajara photoshop, aplikasi ini harus anda miliki
Score: 8 / 10
