There are so many amazing free Photoshop plugins you can download but a lot of them are not compatible with Photoshop CS6. To save you time, we spent the entire day finding and testing the best Photoshop plugins you can download free. There are plugins for photo effects, noise reduction, painting, abstract art, layouts, and more! Download some Photoshop plugins today

Photographers

There are LOTS of photography plugins for Photoshop. Unfortunately, many of them were too outdated or did something that wasn’t very useful/could already be easily done in Photoshop. But out of the ones that we liked, there were two that stood out: Boundary Noise Reduction and ReFocus DC. Boundary Noise Reduction is a good noise reduction plugin that rivals their expensive competitors and ReFocus DC can fix your blurred photos with amazing results.

Perfect Effects 4 Free

Apply one of 73 photo effects to your photos and combine them for even more effects! This plugin lets you apply these effects with control over masking, painting, and blending. The effects look nice but they don’t quite match up to many of the free retro Photoshop actions. Downloading this plugin requires your email address which will automatically subscribe you to their newsletter. You can opt out of the newsletter at any time. After installation, you can access it by going to Window > Extensions > onOne.

Wire Worm

Although there are already many tools in Photoshop that lets you remove powerlines, you might benefit from this plug-in made exclusively for removing wires. Wire Worm works pretty similar to the Clone Stamp tool with its own color matching algorithm. I found Wire Worm to be easier than the Clone Stamp tool and it gives better results too! I just wished there was a zoom tool because the preview area is stuck to 100%. To install, copy the file to your Photoshop\Plugins\Filter folder. This plugin only works on the 32-bit version of Photoshop (not the 64-bit).

Pano Warp

Photoshop is a great tool for creating panoramas but as with many panoramas, they can look distorted. To fix it, you can use this Pano Warp plugin which applies distortion corrections so that the curved lines in your panoramas look straight. It works much different than the Lens Correction filter. To install, copy the file to your Photoshop\Plugins\Filter folder. Unfortunately, this plugin is also only compatible with 32-bit version of Photoshop (not the 64-bit).

Painters

One of the best tools for painters is NKS5. This Photoshop extension gives you access to realistic media brushes and is one of the most popular plugins for digital artists.

NKS5 Natural Media Toolkit

This is a must-try for all painters out there! This plugin gives you a panel full of different pencils, pens, and markers. You can even simulate a variety of real papers and add preset or evenly spaced guides. Installation is done through Adobe Extension Manager; a new tool to manage all your plugins/extensions. Once installed, go to File/Photoshop > Scripts > NKS5 Install. Then, go to Window > Tool Presets. Uncheck the “Current Tool Only” option. You can begin using the tool now by going to Window > Extensions > NKS5.

HOW TO CREATE SOCIAL MEDIA ICONS USING THE FREE FONT AWESOME FONT IN PHOTOSHOP

In this tutorial you will learn how to create some cool looking social media icons in Photoshop by simply using the free font Font Awesome.

What you’ll be creating

We will be creating some flat social media icons: we’ll start with the background then proceed with the icons. We’ll finish it up by creating some effects to make the icons more original like the gloss effect or the long shadow. You’ll need Photoshop CS3 or newer to follow this tutorial.

Tutorial Resources

Step 1

Create a New File at 500×400 pixels

Create a New Group and name it ‘Background’

Step 2

Fill your background with the color #e7e9ea using the Fill Bucket Tool.

Step 3

To add more effect to the background we will be adding some gradient. Click on the Adjustment Layer icon and choose Gradient… and use the following settings:

Blend Mode: Soft Light | Opacity: 25%

Step 4

Create another group and this time name it ‘symbols’

Step 5

Before anything else, to make this work easier and more organized-looking, we need Rulers and Grids. These can be accessed by simply going to View > Rulers and View > Show > Grids. Here are my setting for both the Rulers and Grids (this can be accessed by going to Edit>Preference):

Now that we have that, we need to add giudes and this can be done by simply clicking and dragging from the ruler. Click and Drag from the vertical ruler if you want a vertical giude and vice versa. Here is how I divided the canvas (each icon being 50×50 pixels big and a 25 pixels space between each one):

Step 6

With the font we are working with in this tutorial, Font Awesome, you can add costumizable icons for your website. Normally, this is done by placing the CSS of the font to your website but since we are working with Photoshop, we need to copy each icon you desire to use from their Cheatsheet. So open up the said page, scroll down and look for all the icons you would like to use. I used the icons for the following (social media) sites: Twitter; Facebook; Tumblr; Google +; Instagram; Youtube; Twitch; Dropbox; Deviantart; Pinterest; Skype; Feed.

Step 7

Once you have found the icon you would like to use, copy it (Highlight it then Right Click> Copy..)

Then go back to Photoshop and grab your Text Tool from the Tools Panel. Change the Font settings as shown:

Step 8

Repeat the previous step until you have pasted all the icons you would like to use.

Step 9

Create a new group and rename it to ‘icon bg’ and place it below the ‘symbols’ Group

Step 10

Create a new layer and place it into the group we just created. I renamed the layer to ‘icon bg’.

Step 11

Using the Rectangular Circle Shape Tool (located at the Tools Panel below the Text Tool) I created the background of the icons following the guides we did earlier. Create the background on that layer only to make your work easier to look at.

Here are all the colors I used:
Twitter:#6bd1f4;
Facebook:#5a93cb;
Tumblr:#3c6a9c;
Google +:#e44940;
Instagram:#9bd29d;
Youtube:#f4504c;
Twitch:#a96db6;
Dropbox:#81d5ed;
Deviantart:#6e8e61;
Pinterest:#f25f5f;
Skype:#67d5f4;
Feed:#e9951d;

Now you don’t specifically have to use the same colors as I did, you are obviously free to change the colors and use whichever color you prefer to make your work more original.

If you don’t like the look of the rectangular circles, you can always use other shapes like a square or circle. To make a perfect circle or square, be sure to hold the SHIFT key as you are making them.

Step 12

If you are already pleased with what we have just done, you can stop here but if you would like to spice up the icons some more go on and continue reading. We shall start by adding some Drop Shadow to the icons. Open the ‘symbols’ group, select one of the icons and click the fx icon > Drop Shadow. Use the following settings:

Step 13

Repeat the previous step with the rest of the icons. To make your work a lot easier, right click on the layer > Copy Layer Style. Then select the rest of the icons/symbols layers, right click > Paste Layer Style.

Step 14

Now add some Inner Shadow to the background of each icon. So open up the ‘icons bg’ group, select the layer and click the fx icon > Inner Shadow. Use the following settings:

Step 15

Create a new layer and name it Gloss Effect. Change the foreground color to #ffffff; using the Rectangular Marquee Tool, create some rectangles that is just half the size of your icon (approx. 50x25pixels). Do this for all of the icons.

Then Change the Blend Mode to Soft Light and Opacity to 20% and Fill to 80%.

Step 16

(If you are doing this step, be sure to not show the Gloss Effect) Create a new layer and name it to Long Shadow. This step is a bit harder compared to rest of the effects. Place the new layer below the Gloss Effect layer.

Step 17

Grab the Polygonal Lasso Tool and start creating some tilted rectangles: start by following the shape of your icon only from the bottom-right side then make a diagonal line until it reaches the bottom-right end of the icon’s background,make a straight line just until it reaches the center of the background then connect the lines.
