Since the beginning of time (or at least since the beginning of Adobe Systems Incorporated), photographers and designers have always wanted their applications to do more with less. Thus, the demand for plug-ins was created. Developers identify a need, create a solution, and then through the power of marketing, convince users that their plug-ins will make them faster, stronger, and better smelling. Sometimes they're right, and sometimes, well, let's just say those developers aren't around anymore (even though their websites are—would somebody please clean up that mess on the Web?).

Click here for our list of Photoshop Plugins.

You probably know that there's a plethora of plug-ins available for Photoshop, but did you know there were just as many available for Illustrator and InDesign? Well, we thought we knew until we started the research. Originally, we were going to show illustrations demonstrating each plug-in, but as the list grew, we threw that idea into the Trash (PC: Recycle Bin). We were also going to list all of the Photoshop plug-ins, but those alone would have taken up the next six pages. So we decided to focus on Illustrator and InDesign and bring some of the lesser-known plug-ins to your attention. (We didn't want to leave Photoshop out completely, though, so we do have a list of developers at the end of this article, and we have a more complete list of Photoshop plug-ins available online at www.layersmagazine.com/psplugins.)

Finally, to keep our list manageable (read less than 30 pages), we had to set some rules. First, we're only focusing on commercial plug-ins—no freeware here. Second, we're not including anything such as brushes, actions, or templates. Third, the plug-in must have a host application to work (no standalone apps). And fourth, they have to work with CS4. This turned out to be one of our biggest challenges. Some websites had 'All of our plug-ins work with CS4' in big bold letters on their homepage (thank you!), while other sites had this information buried in their FAQ pages (or worse yet, in their Read Me files after downloading the software). Thinking back on it, we should have added a five-second rule: If a typical user can't determine if a plug-in is compatible with CS4 in less than five seconds, then it's off the list.

And now for the moment you've all been waiting for (no, not the actual list of plug-ins, but our disclaimer). Even though we tried our best, this list in no way should be considered a complete or comprehensive (or even accurate) list of all available CS4 plug-ins (that goes double for the prices). Heck, by the time you read this, some of these companies could be out of business and 50 new plug-ins could have been announced (welcome to our world). Also, this list should not be considered an endorsement for all of the plug-ins that appear on it. Yes, we've tested a lot of them, but we'd have to quit our day jobs if we had to test all of them. To help you help yourself stay better informed, here are some resources to learn about current and new plug-ins: the Adobe Marketplace & Exchange (www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange) and www.pluginsworld.com. And now for the moment you've really been waiting for…

Since the beginning of time (or at least since the beginning of Adobe Systems Incorporated), photographers and designers have always wanted their applications to do more with less. Thus, the demand for plug-ins was created. Developers identify a need, create a solution, and then through the power of marketing, convince users that their plug-ins will make them faster, stronger, and better smelling. Sometimes they're right, and sometimes, well, let's just say those developers aren't around anymore (even though their websites are—would somebody please clean up that mess on the Web?).

Click here for our list of Photoshop Plugins.

You probably know that there's a plethora of plug-ins available for Photoshop, but did you know there were just as many available for Illustrator and InDesign? Well, we thought we knew until we started the research. Originally, we were going to show illustrations demonstrating each plug-in, but as the list grew, we threw that idea into the Trash (PC: Recycle Bin). We were also going to list all of the Photoshop plug-ins, but those alone would have taken up the next six pages. So we decided to focus on Illustrator and InDesign and bring some of the lesser-known plug-ins to your attention. (We didn't want to leave Photoshop out completely, though, so we do have a list of developers at the end of this article, and we have a more complete list of Photoshop plug-ins available online at www.layersmagazine.com/psplugins.)

Finally, to keep our list manageable (read less than 30 pages), we had to set some rules. First, we're only focusing on commercial plug-ins—no freeware here. Second, we're not including anything such as brushes, actions, or templates. Third, the plug-in must have a host application to work (no standalone apps). And fourth, they have to work with CS4. This turned out to be one of our biggest challenges. Some websites had 'All of our plug-ins work with CS4' in big bold letters on their homepage (thank you!), while other sites had this information buried in their FAQ pages (or worse yet, in their Read Me files after downloading the software). Thinking back on it, we should have added a five-second rule: If a typical user can't determine if a plug-in is compatible with CS4 in less than five seconds, then it's off the list.

And now for the moment you've all been waiting for (no, not the actual list of plug-ins, but our disclaimer). Even though we tried our best, this list in no way should be considered a complete or comprehensive (or even accurate) list of all available CS4 plug-ins (that goes double for the prices). Heck, by the time you read this, some of these companies could be out of business and 50 new plug-ins could have been announced (welcome to our world). Also, this list should not be considered an endorsement for all of the plug-ins that appear on it. Yes, we've tested a lot of them, but we'd have to quit our day jobs if we had to test all of them. To help you help yourself stay better informed, here are some resources to learn about current and new plug-ins: the Adobe Marketplace & Exchange (www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange) and www.pluginsworld.com. And now for the moment you've really been waiting for…
