Diffuse 1.5 Plugin for Adobe Photoshop | 5 MB
Diffuse is very similar to Adobe Photoshop own diffuse filter with a key difference - it supports sub-pixel (fractional) diffusion. This key feature takes the diffusion effect to a whole new level and now makes it useful for production where antialiasing effects are necessary. Adobe Photoshop’s integer-based diffusion algorithm produces harsh aliasing seldom useful for any kind of professional work. By using sub-pixel diffusion, the results are subtle and fully integrated within the image. Applying several iterations of the effects at one time produces even more pleasing results. Sub-pixel diffusion means you can apply diffusion values less that 1.0 pixel. Diffuse is 100 multi-threaded capable of using an unlimited number of cores for ultimate speed.
Amount: Controls the maximum amount of diffusion (distance of pixels / 100.0). For instance, a value of 100 will diffuse pixels up to 1.0 pixel in any direction.
Iterations: Controls the number if times the diffusion is applied. For instance, if you apply 400 diffusion with 20 iterations, your image will be diffused at a rate of 400, 20 times over. Increasing the iterations produces a ‘frosted glass’ type of effect.
Seed: Changes the random generator seed.
