XERO PLUGINS - ALIEN MIST Sometimes I look at plugins or effects and see the examples or default settings and decide that I don't ever want to use these effects because they are so extreme. Xero plugins are wonderful - but this plugin put me off because of the example. You can download and see the author's example here - Alien Mist Luckily for me, I used the plugin before I looked at the example.
	A tube that just didn't seem to work as a bright blue. The tube was done from a photograph by Clarita at Morguefile Click on the picture to download the tube. Open it in PSP. Duplicate the tube (Shift + D) Close the original.
Colorize using these settings:
	Looks more like natural wood. Duplicate the layer and make sure the top layer is highlighted in the layer palette.
XERO - ALIEN MIST SETTINGS
	Way too sever a setting for the little monkeys to look natural.
Reduce layer opacity to 60%
	Voila! The three monkeys look like they are sitting on my curio shelf, fully in need of a dusting! Enjoy experimenting with this wonderful plugin. vetch
