A look at Splat!, Alien Skin's newest special effects plug-in filter set.

Edges
Edges modifies the borders of a selection or layer with decorative effects. You can choose from six edge modes for this effect: Halftone Dots, Halftone Lines, Lumpy, Pixels, Rough, and Torn Paper. Options allow you to control the edge width, margin, feature size, direction and and shadow color of the effect. A transparent fill option creates a transparent edge effect.


This image shows four of the edge modes available. Clockwise from top left: lumpy, halftone dots, halftone lines, torn.


Here the edge effect was used on text. Left to right: halftone lines, pixels, halftone dots, rough.


Here the "lumpy" edge effect was used and then a border stamp was added.
