			I am trying to get Filter Forge 8 to show up in the filter menu the past versions did.
 
			I am using Windows 7 Pro and Photoshop CS 5 version 12.0 64-bit. I tried in the preference to add the plug-in filter from Filter Forge 8 folder in C:\Program Files but that did not work. Does anybody have any ideas? Thank you Jerry  |

			Photoshop CS5 is not supported for FF8, here is the list. Don't know what to say, other than CS5 is a pretty old program. I have CS6 and it hasn't been supported for awhile. I don't know about you, but I am pretty disappointed with Adobe and their new pricing "scheme" (subscriptions only), so I am considering using other programs, experimenting with GIMP and might try out Paint Shop Pro or Affinity. From my years of using Filter Forge, I can say that generally Filter Forge works faster as a stand-alone program vs. a plugin, but your mileage may differ...

			Bongo: instead of invoking the plugin, you should try copy-paste into the standalone version: it is a bit faster and way more stable.
