Just a short, simple blog for Bob to share his thoughts.

Following Google's acquisition of Nik Software, Google has decided to make it's suite of plugins available for free. With that in mind, I thought that I would post a simple "How-To" guide for using the Nik plugins for anyone who is using Corel's PaintShop Pro instead of Adobe's hideously-priced Photoshop software. (Note that Photoshop is really cool, of course - it's just priced and/or licensed badly.)
In any event, here are the steps to use the Nik Collection plugins with Corel's PaintShop Pro on a Windows computer:
"%ProgramFiles%\Google\Nik Collection"
cd /d "%ProgramFiles%\Corel\Corel PaintShop Pro X8 (64-bit)\PlugIns\EN"
mklink /j "Nik Collection" "%ProgramFiles%\Google\Nik Collection"
That's all it takes. Have fun!
