Download and installation
Synthetik Studio Artist 2.0 is, of course, a Macintosh-only program. It runs in Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X. After you download the "NagelSeries1Effects.sit" file, decompress it using Stuffit Expander. If you don't already have Stuffit Expander, you can download it free from http://www.aladdinsys.com/downloads/index.html.

Download: NagelSeries1Effects (248 KB)[an error occurred while processing this directive]The unstuffed folder will be called "NagelSeries1." Place this folder into the Studio Artist 2.0/ImageOp/ Default directory.



Launch Studio Artist, and switch your Presets from "Paint Patch" to "Image Operations." And then switch from "Default" to "NagelSeries1." The effects will be listed with real-size previews to give you a good idea of the effect each one generates.



To use them, simply select one and click the Action button. That's it. If you have any questions about these, such as using them for video work or modifying these to your liking, be sure to visit me in the Studio Artist forum here.
