Snap Art, a new Adobe Photoshop plug-in from Alien Skin Software, takes regular photographs and creates convincing fine-art effects such as watercolors, charcoal drawings, color-pencil drawings, oil pastels, and more.

Snap Art also includes an assortment of canvas and paper types, works with 16-bit images,and is scriptable with Photoshop actions. Also available are context-sensitive help and an online manual.

Windows users must have a Pentium 4 or later processor and Windows XP or later; Macintosh users must have a G4 or G5 PowerPC processor and Mac OS X 10.3.9. Price: $149.
