Description

Polished Metal is a *fast rendering* texture filter, that gives your pictures a "polished" metallic look (other looks are possible, this filter is just oriented toward a polished metal look, and the presets attempt to exploit that look for the most part). The controls are listed top-to-bottom, in the order that they affect your picture. 20 presets are included to get you started. Note : This V2 update adds some subtle internal changes, enhanced presets, and features an all new any angle shifting control (*Angle Shift*), as opposed to just 0* and 90* before, and a *Shift Amount* control as well. Render time has not increased.
