Toadies filter
Follow the directions below for
installing the Plug In.
New Way:
1. First thing to do is close out PSP.
2. Download and save to a spot in your computer, I always save
mine in my downloads and then extract it to my plug-in folder in the PSP folder.
Depending on the type of Plug-in it is. If it is one that has an exe file then I
just leave it in the downloads to delete later and install it into the
C:\Plugins folder. If it isn't an exe file then
I unzip it using WinZip.
See my Example:
You may need to
create a folder depending on how organized you
like to be. I like to be really organized and
not have any extra plug-in sitting around my
folders. I also use an external hard drive so
that I am not taking so much room on my
computer. (They can take up a lot of space).
Once you have extracted it You are done.
Toadies can be imported to ICNet - Filters Unlimited to do that see the following:
(you can still get the same results)
1. Open PSP
2. Navigate to Effects/ICNET/Filters Unlimited
Don't do too many at once it will freeze up PSP and then you have to start all over.
This is if You have windows 7 or later:
1. When you
download plug-in, make a folder on your computer
named plug-in.
2. Save your download to your folder on
your desk top.
3. Save your plug-in in the designated
folder.
4. Open up your folder from the desktop,
right click on the plug-in. A box should open
up and will say something like unzip the file or
extract the file. It may even show up like I
do. I use WinRAR zip program and that is the
way if shows for me.
5. Now your files should extract into the
same folder, if they do not watch the path and
change it to your desktop plug-in folder if it
doesn't already say that on the download.
Below look at the files that extracted. the
.8bf are the actual files. Those are the
ones that need to go into your Jasc Plug in
folder. The readme and the samples along
with the original zip file do not need to be
uploaded.
6. Now lets open up your windows
explorer. Go to your Start menu then
Accessories then your Windows Explorer. Note each
system is different mine is a Windows XP and this
is the way it looks, yours may be different but
all operating systems have a Windows Explorer (Mac
computers only use Photoshop, most plug-in can
be used for Photoshop but don't know where they
go or how that works, so we can't help you). If you don't see it based
on my example look around for it in other folders,
I have even seen were it was separate on the start
menu.
7. Once you have opened up your Explorer
click on the + sign on "My Computer" and it will
open up. Then click on the + sign on
"Programs"
8. Once all your programs have opened up
click on the + sign on "Jasc Software Inc" then
open up your Paint Shop Pro program. Once your
program is open click on the + sign on the plug-in.
Click on the actual word Plug-in so it is
highlighted. Note if you do not see Plug-in
then Make a new folder within the explores and of
course make sure its within your Paint shop.
Title it Plug-in just like mine. You need
that folder in order to download. Notice once you
have opened up the plug-in folder you will see in
the center different folders and maybe even other
things you have downloaded. We are going to
move the files you just unzipped into this portion
of the plug-in.
9. What your seeing within the next
image is both of my folders side by side. I
have on top the actual folder from my desktop that
I unzipped the plug-in to. Underneath that
folder is my "Windows Explorer" I
highlighted all the files from the unzipped folder
that I wanted to add to my psp. I did that
by clicking on the first .8bf file and holding
down my ctrl key I clicked on each one
individually until I had them all highlighted.
Once I had all the files highlighted I right
clicked on the highlighted ones and drug them over
to my explorer and dropped them into the center.
It will move all those files into y our plug-in
folder for psp.
Once you have done that your done. Now if
you had PSP open already its not going to show up.
You have to close it and then open it up again.
So I always put my plug-in in before I open up PSP.
Hope that helps.
