Subject: BladePro 2.0.9 - Metallic reflections filter
Version 2.0.9 is a maintenance release which improves stability; allows
the “environments and textures” folder to move; and includes a utility
which translates BladePro presets to work on both Macintosh and Windows.

BladePro, the Photoshop filter that combines textures with bevels and
mirrorlike reflections, now has amazing new features.
BladePro puts you in control of lighting and surfaces, and offers a wide
selection of edge styles. Produce reflections with the included
environment maps (gold, chrome, outdoor scenes) or make your own.
You can make glassy objects with prismatic catchlights, tarnish
any surface, pour on iridescent oil-slick colors, and customize your
textures. Over 100 presets get you started right away with all the
possibilities.
Quickly create appealingly 'touchable' 3-D appearances like slippery ice
or weathered copper, as well as eye-catching text, buttons, and special
effects.
BladePro is shareware for Macintosh, and requires a paint program and
QuickTime. You can check for updates at
