I've used Topaz Simply a lot -- it's one of my favorite plug-ins. Simplify 4 is astonishing in its ability to create art out of our photographs. In this example, I cut and pasted the 1948 Lincoln in front of a mirrored image of colonial architecture in Peru, and then applied one of the many Simplify filters under the 'painting' tab. The possibilities are truly endless. If you like creating art out of your images, this is a must-have Photoshop plug-in. There is no learning curve. You just start playing with the various siiders and pull down menu options in the dialog box. It's really a lot of fun.
