Weekly Download: Filter Effects for Adobe Illustrator
18 SVG filters for creating color and noise effects
by David Nagel

This week we enter into a new category in our series of weekly downloads--filter effects for Adobe Illustrator 10. Owing to that program's ability to incorporate XML into its repertoire of effects, users can simply import an apparently endless variety of filters for a broad range of uses. And, of course, developers can create these filters without having to go through the usual API flaming hoops that keep filter development out of the hands of those of us with no programming experience. Hooray!

Now, this week's collection of filters is my first attempt in this area. So maybe the effects aren't particularly original or fantastically useful, but we'll work on this in future installments. And, at any rate, these are free![an error occurred while processing this directive]The Nagel Series 1 Illustrator Filters collection includes 18 filter effects, which can be applied to any object in Illustrator with a variety of results. Here's a sampling of what this first pack offers.
