Test drive the Xenofex 2 plugin for Adobe Fireworks CS4

In the previous versions of Adobe Fireworks, we were able to use a limited edition of the Eyecandy Plugin from the Alien Skin Software site . It was only limited to 3 filters  , but they were pretty good ones.  From the same company that created the Eyecandy plugin ,  let’s take a look at another plugin they made called  Xenofex 2.

xenofex2

It has 14 amazing effects to choose from  and best of all it’s totally compatible with fireworks cs4. You can enable / disable the filter in the filters panel, incase you made a mistake  and can apply multiple xenofex filters on an object. The plugin is not free though ( 129 usd ) , previous owners of Xenofex  can avail a discount upgrade, but if you want to just try it, you can download  a 30 day free trial.
