Thanks for the heads-up. Very nice freebo. I like the "soft" and "subtle" presets a lot.

Thanks for the link! Got both Sony Vegas & Pinnacle Studio versions. FYI, each version requires registration -- NewBlue emailed unique keys for each one.

That's the beauty of cut and paste. You can make your mistakes up front and the propagate them everywhere!

I think they've been sniffing the paste...

That's quite an oversight.

Hoo-hoo-hooo! Let them eat, umm, cake.

Ouch! What makes it worse is we caught this oversight a few days ago when reviewing the press release but somehow the correction still didn't make it in. Anyway, we love Sony Vegas. Big time.

Sometimes, when something is just so obvious it is no longer news, you forget to say it. (Lame excuse, but that's what happened.)

All the PR services have been upgraded with the correction. It should percolate through in due time.

Ya' know guys, let's give Todor a break this time around. Not only is this the coolest free visual fx plugin for Vegas yet (the number and quality of the presets alone are testament enough, kind of like posterization and rotoscoping all rolled into one), it comes without adware, spyware, and if the rest of the package is as promising, probably worth a shot.

I've done press releases and announcements for years, and one of the most difficult things is proofreading your own work. Wrong names, dates, times, even years are much worse than simple omissions such as Todor made, and I've made them all.

This is a great free plugin, and a good "tickle" for the whole package; sorry I won't be able to meet you at the Sony booth this year, I've got a full time gig.

I really like this plugin! Thanks New Blue!

Hey guys, I'm trying to install this, but every time I enter my name and e-mail, it tries to connect but it just ends up failing. Any ideas why? I'd like to give this plugin a try.

cookies, maybe?

Check your firewall - it might be blocking it. We've been getting a ton of traffic too, so maybe the server was overwhelmed the moment you tried, but more likely something's interfering.

Great plug-in, Todor. How do we instal on a non-internet computer? Could find no option for this ....
NewBlueFX wrote on 4/13/2008, 9:37 PM
Thanks, Peter. Good point - there's a reasonable contingent of editors who like to keep their computers disconnected from the internet. I'm afraid we don't have a solution for you yet, but we'll look into it. I guess I could say, "Hey it's free!" but we really would like to make this available to everybody.

The simplest solution is to temporarily connect your machine to the internet while installing.

Yes Peter, I just sent them a Request - but it was the WRONG page - that was for the Academic Request!! Fool . ..

Grazie

Hopefully Todor will come back and respond. In the meantime I have created a Support Ticket asking the same.

Grazie

Todor, Sony's in the press release now, but it still may need another tweak.

Okay, it was my firewall, thanks. I'm having trouble now getting Vegas (6) to see the plugin...I rarely install plugins for Vegas so I'm not sure what I'm missing.

Why are we the only ones who have to pay a fee?

All the others get their Cartoonr for free!

Unfair!
