Description

EDGE GENERATOR V3.0:
Generates Sharp or Blurry Edges, makes different Shapes & Sizes, adds Drop Shadows, makes Transparent Edges, and adds a Line any Colour around your Mask. It has 5 different modes.

MODES:
1. Creates a White or Black Edge with Photo
showing.
2. Turns your Photo into an edge, leaving white in the
middle. Good for DTP or layouts.
3. Creates a White or Black Edge Mask that can be
used in other Masking or Paint programs.
4. Creates a transparent Edge so your Photo looks
like a cutout. This mode only works if your
background is transparent.
5. Adds a Drop Shadow to your Mask. Same rules
as Mode 4.

Also a Vertical & Horizontal offset is included. Many presets supplied to get you started.

TIPS: In Mode 5, Radius Blur should be set to zero for best results. See UPDATE NOTES for more info.

Special Thanks to:
Ken for his Edges code.
CF andM for his Making Shadows code.
