For some reason my lighting effects are not showing up when I go to Filter > Render > Lighting Effects. I can't select any and I can't save any.I go into the PlugIns folder and all the styles are there. I have tried the following suggestions from another forum without success: ____________________________________________________________ "I finally got it to work. WOO HOO!!! I copied my custom lighting styles to my desktop, deleted the Photoshop plug-ins folder, reinstalled PS and pasted the custom lighting styles from my desktop into the lighting styles directory. It works perfectly." "I found something on the adobe forums that seems to have worked for me - the issue is with NTFS compression on NT/2K/XP drives. I un-checked the hardware compression for my adobe PS folder (right click choose properties and then advanced and un-check "compress contents to save disk space" and that seems to have fixed things." ____________________________________________________________ I would welcome any other suggestions please. Thank you all in advance Arnold
