Enter to Win a Free Copy of Filter Forge 3.0 (x5)

Let’s be honest, most of Photoshop’s default filters and effects don’t give you much flexibility and don’t always look very realistic. Filter Forge is a powerful third-party plugin for Photoshop that allows you to do some pretty amazing things with filters, and even create your own. Today, our friends at Filter Forge are celebrating their 5th Anniversary by giving away a copy of Filter Forge 3.0 to 5 lucky Psdtuts+ readers.

Update: this giveaway has concluded and the winners have been selected. Thanks to everyone who participated.

Version 3.0 features support for multiple source images, improved preview interactivity, new amazing filters, and much more. To see Filter Forge in action, take a look at our recent tutorial explaining how to get started with Filter Forge.

On the surface, Filter Forge is just a Photoshop plugin, a pack of filters that create visual effects, enhance photos, generate textures, and process images. However, there are some things that make Filter Forge unique:

1. All users get free access to thousands of filters. Anyone can contribute their textures and effects to the online filter collection so it grows with every submitted filter.

2. You can create your own filters. If you cannot find an appropriate filter in the library you’ll love the Filter Editor – a visual node-based tool for creating custom-tailored textures and effects. All filters are constructed by connecting components that represent basic operations such as blurs, gradients, color adjustments, noises, distortions, or blends – without writing a single line of code.
