Hi, I've just released 3 free plugins for B&W photo effects at my website here : www.cybia.co.uk They are very basic but originally written for myself as I have always liked the traditional B&W format and enjoy replicating a similar look digitally these days. "Hi-Spot" will turn your colour photos B&W with a high contrast automatically, making crisp dark blacks and clean whites. "G-Force" will turn your colour photos a softer B&W with a grain effect. "Techni-X" is a very high-contrast effect for limiting most of the mid-tones leaving a strong image Have fun! Steve
