I just opened the program. When I went to download more filters it said I needed to upgrade...so I did. I Opened the program and went to download new filters. I am seeing several filters with "Upgrade Needed" stamped across the thumbnail and in the preview pane it says "This filter cannot be displayed. To use the filter, download the latest version of Filter Forge."
I just upgraded...what's wrong? I am using Basic v 1.020

It depends on what filter you downloaded..Some are made with version2 which are not compatible with version1.....

Stupid things happen to computers for stupid reasons at stupid times!

Well, you're using the filter download method that is clearly marked as obsolete smile;)
