Fun with Software – Special Effects


Need some inspiration for design ideas? Well it’s software to the rescue! Each of the trestle table design variations on this page was created using the “effects” filters that are bundled with Paint Shop Pro – a nifty graphics program that rivals the power of Adobe Photoshop at a fraction of the price. The name of the effect is given next to each image.
