At the recommendation of a friend, I created a separate plugins folder which lives outsite of the Photoshop folder structure, e.g.

\My plug-ins
\AutoFX Dreamsuite 1
\Andromeda Cutline
\Nik Effects
….etc.

created a shortcut for it, which I placed in my PS7 \plug-ins.

———–

When I install CS, placing a shortcut for \My plug-ins in CS \plug-ins should work, shouldn’t it?

I won’t have to replace my plugs with ones upgraded for CS … or will I?

TIA

If they worked in Photoshop 7, they should work in Photoshop CS.

Hi Chris:

Thx for the fast reply.

To confirm putting the 3rd party plugins in separate folder, creating a shortcut for that folder and placing it in \CS\plug-ins will work, too, right?

Thanks again…

you can also use the seconday plugin folder in the prefrences (if that still exists in cs).

Why do you put a shortcut in your PS Plugins? I don’t get it. Does it save time in loading, RAM, etc? I’m interested to know the benefit of doing it that way.

Thanks,
Sweet-P
