Plugins must be the best invention of all times. Being able to plugin interesting features as to what one is doing is so important. Real viral traffic generators have though been missing but just on market is the iLikeViral plugin which I will try.

Thanks this is so far the worst feature from Adobe but I feel the same as @sonny. I’ve already installed the plug-in in my plug-ins folder but I have no idea how to make it work. I loved how I googled annoying compass in photoshop and I knew I wasn’t alone! Thanks again!!

@ Christine

You need to install it in the plugins folder of your photoshop software. Depending if you are on a mac or windows machine, it will be in a different place. You can try searching “Plug-Ins” there should be a few in there already like Automate, Effects, Parser, etc…

How do you integrate this download into the preferences? This compass think is driving me crazy. I am not a professional, I just use Photoshop for scrapbooking and I hate this compass. Thank you
