ThePluginSite Panel is an extension for Photoshop CS4, CS5 and
CS6 and works under Windows and MacOS X. It allows you to apply
all Photoshop plugins created by The Plugin Site in a convenient
way. It lets you add or remove the plugin effect to and from the
image as well as duplicate, stamp or flatten the current layer
before running a plugin. It is
freeware.
You can have a look at an
interactive demo of the panel. The demo only demonstrates
the UI of the panel, so clicking of the controls has no effect.

Installation
To install it double click the downloaded

> ThePluginSite from the menu. You can leave the panel floating

How does it work?
At first you need to select a plugin from
the list at the left. Then click on one of the four buttons at
the right, or alternatively double click a plugin in the list
to run it. There is also a combo box and a check box for determining
to which layer the plugin will be applied. Here is an explanation
of these features:
Run: Runs the selected plugin and
displays the plugin dialog. This has the same effect as double
clicking a plugin item in the list.
Repeat: If you already ran a plugin, it applies the plugin
without showing a dialog. Otherwise the dialog will display.
Add: After you clicked the Add button, the plugin dialog
appears. Choose your settings and press OK. Now you do not see
the effect. You have to paint on the image to reveal the effect.
The brush tool is already activated.
Remove: This button displays the
dialog of the selected plugin. Choose your settings and press
OK. To remove the effect from some areas of the image please
paint on the image. The brush tool is already activated.
Apply to Layer: This combo box determines
to which layer the plugin is applied. The 'Current' option applies
the plugin to the currently selected layer. The 'Duplicated'
option duplicates the selected layer and applies the plugin
to it. The 'Stamped' option inserts a merged copy of all visible
layers as a new layer and runs the plugin on it.
Flatten: If this check box is activated,
all layers are combined before the selected plugin is applied.
Rescan: Click this box after you
installed new plugin or plugin versions in order to make the
panel recognize them. The plugin scanning process will take
a few seconds. This button vanishes afterwards.
