    Raindrops on windows
    Hi

    Does anyone know of an EASY way to get a raindrops on window effect? There are some ways online but they all seem rather complicated to me. Maybe a freeware filter?

    Cheers
    Mike

    I followed the link you have posted there and it downloaded just fine for me. I tested it out too and it worked just fine.

    How about a test picture. I finally got it to download but it didn't install or something. How did you get it to install?

    Hi Greg

    Thank you so much!! Actually, that link you gave was for PS full, but the same company does do an Elements 5.0 version ( http://www.panosfx.com/index.php?opt...d=166&Itemid=0 )

    The instructions were a tad complex, but accurate and I attach a test image (just using their defaults).

    Thanks again
    This is one which will be used!
    Mike

    I downloaded it and played around with it too, and it worked pretty good.

    To install it, all you have to do is open the .zip file, and drag the Action file to someplace where you wont delete it. I put mine in C:/Porgram Files/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS2/Presets/ Photoshop Actions.

    Then go to your Actions pallet, and click on the small triangle in the top right corner. Go to Load Actions..., and then navigate to the folder where you saved the action file. Select the file, and hit Load. This will put it in your Action Pallet, and you can run it from there.
