The cool thing here is that each preset has some adjustments added, but you can remove, add (via the + Add Adjustment), layer and change as many adjustments as you’d like by clicking the downward arrow and playing with the sliders.Įach of the drop down adjustment menus have their own set of sliders, and include an opacity slider to control that specific grouping which is wonderful.
Starting with presets along the right hand side, but adding a fun new view via the “Browse” button which will pull up all filters in an easy to see, preset visual layout (above), along with user downloadable options.Īfter selecting your preset, clicking on the filter will bring up all of the adjustments that are preached into that particular filter. In my opinion, Texture Effects is the most beautifully laid out interface that Topaz has yet created. This allows me to further mask, and blend when back in PS, but if using the standalone, or using through Lightroom, don’t worry, Topaz Texture Effects has you covered on the blending and masking fronts. If working from Photoshop, I always like to duplicate my background, or merged layer which I then run my Topaz filter on. The ability to add textures is also included. Topaz includes 275+, large textures (5000 x 5000 px) with the program, which is plenty large enough to completely cover most any full sized file, and will adjust to suit the size otherwise. On top of that, you’re able to selectively adjust your image through a variety of customizable, user added adjustments. What is Texture Effects? Well, as the name suggests, it supplies a series of preset textures which can be applied to your image, and then refined.
